Funny how that works.

I'm a Democrat. I support DEMOCRATS - not people who just want to use our party every 4 years.

Sad.

Oh well. Bye.

I'm sure the Russians will just walk on by this time.

are has been interpreted by some to be a violation in and of itself

It's their website and rules.

i suspect he would need to.officially become a.democrat in order to comply with the.new rules.

Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren 2020 !!!

That all I need to know. Until he declares as a Democrat forget him.

He is outflanked to his right and left.

What he did do is maintain his base by not putting in an effort to get Clinton elected. He is a career politician and has learned a lot about fundraising and campaigning. Big money. Bull in a China shop. Watch out.

Might as well double dip.

Go Bernie!

The country is ready to revolt against the ruling class. Bernie could win.

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!

of Trump's administration, and will continue to feel it for at least a generation given the composition of our courts.

People might want to check with "Elizabeth" before they relegate her to helpmeet. Senator Warren is a Democrat running for President of the United States.

would hope though she picks Bernie as her VP. Hillary would have thumped tRump had she picked Bernie to be her running mate instead of Tim Kane.

Take your pick...
Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Elizabeth & Bernie 2020!!!

Should she win the nomination, I trust her judgement in choosing a VP. She hardly needs it 'splained to her by novices.

Hillary earned more votes than any other candidate throughout the last presidential election season. She thumped them all.

I doubt that putting BS at the bottom of the ticket would have satisfied the Sanders to Trump crossover voters in PA, MI, and WI who delivered the electoral college and the presidency to the Republican Trump.

Some highlights from the video announcement in which the refreshed and rested politician sports a tailored black suit, a tasteful tie, and neatly coiffed hair.

you can watch his announcement at the website of media giant CBS (he gave them the exclusive) or purchase his books at Amazon.com.

Without vetting all the questions beforehand? Or is he too chicken?

(Seven Days has tried to get an interview with the Senator for over 1400 days without success, because Bernie insists on setting all the conditions for the interview, including the questions. They refuse to let a politician get away with that, so he continues to refuse to be interviewed. We've also seen him literally walk out of interview when he didn't like the questions - very Presidential, I thought.)

hesitation.

"Bernie Sanders sat down with the New York Daily News editorial board last Friday, seeking its endorsement in the upcoming April 19 Empire State primary. It did not go well for the senator from Vermont.
Time and again, when pressed to get beyond his rhetoric on the evils of corporate America and Wall Street, Sanders struggled. Often mightily. (The Daily News published the full transcript of the interview today so you can check it out for yourself.)
A few examples make the point.
Here’s an exchange between the editorial board and Sanders on how, specifically, he would break up the biggest banks in the country:
Daily News: And then, you further said that you expect to break them up within the first year of your administration. What authority do you have to do that? And how would that work? How would you break up JPMorgan Chase?
Sanders: Well, by the way, the idea of breaking up these banks is not an original idea. It’s an idea that some conservatives have also agreed to.
You’ve got head of, I think it’s, the Kansas City Fed, some pretty conservative guys, who understands. Let’s talk about the merit of the issue, and then talk about how we get there. ...
Daily News: Okay. Well, let’s assume that you’re correct on that point. How do you go about doing it?
Sanders: How you go about doing it is having legislation passed, or giving the authority to the secretary of treasury to determine, under Dodd-Frank, that these banks are a danger to the economy over the problem of too-big-to-fail.
Daily News: But do you think that the Fed, now, has that authority?
Sanders: Well, I don’t know if the Fed has it. But I think the administration can have it."

The more one gets to know Sanders, the more one gets to KNOW HIM

That declaration is still to come, I suppose. Probably sooner rather than later. It's a question that will be asked constantly until he declares himself to be a Democrat plainly and simply.

We shall see.

..prior to or during today's declaration, and follow it up in writing to Tom Perez. I don't think he did either.

All I can find is a tweet with a photo of the new rule:

I don't know its official status, though. But, the principle is clear. The question was never raised in Sanders' interview with CBS News this morning. That surprised me. Perhaps the question was not allowed by Bernie Sanders as a condition of the exclusive interview. That would make sense, as would knowledge that the question was important by CBS News.

It's interesting, I think, and is going to continue to be an issue.

...on Vermont Public Radio that he was going to run.

As noted elsewhere, he is quite restrictive in granting interviews with respect to the conduct and content of his interviews.

1. No questions regarding my membership in the Democratic Party.
2. No questions regarding my IRS tax forms.


And, sure enough, neither of those questions were used in the interview.

Unfortunately, news media people often accept such limitations to get a beat on other outlets. I find that to be unprofessional, frankly.

That's why they termed it an "exclusive" interview. Since CBS News has a national audience, they meant "exclusive" in terms of that audience, I'm sure.

I mean, what is the total audience count for anything on Vermont Public Radio?
