No way in hell he is going to survive the digging into his wife's college deal or money that went to family members. Not to mention the foot high folder opposition research the GOP has on him. All of the things he escaped because of the full court press against Clinton (which he was a part of).

And people still want answers about Tad Devine and Russia.

All depends on which choice gets him more Russian support. DURHAM D May 2018 #18

Lol. So we are all going to wait around for him to tell us what he wants? Ya. sunRISEnow May 2018 #22

Either way or especially if he runs as an independent it all but GUARANTEES the GOP Eliot Rosewater May 2018 #53

Surely we Democrats will be told sometime. Really, I find this incredible this man can say sunRISEnow May 2018 #52

There are zero expectations from his base. nt NCTraveler May 2018 #56

I have zero expectation of either Bros, or Bernie, also. This is not about his supporters. sunRISEnow May 2018 #58

He already is with respect to public perception. NCTraveler May 2018 #59

If Bernie would stop being coy, then there is a lot the Democratic Party and the base can do sunRISEnow May 2018 #64

From what I understand... LiberalFighter May 2018 #116

Jerry Brown vetoed that? Okay, then the Democratic Party should make it a requirement. pnwmom May 2018 #16

I think because it could not be held up Constitutionally. So, you are probably right. sunRISEnow May 2018 #20

These laws are probably constitutional Gothmog May 2018 #87

Okay. Thanks. sunRISEnow May 2018 #88

Any Dem running for president should release TAX RETURNS first. nt oasis May 2018 #17
