Most Sanders voters are probably too young to even know who Tony Blair is.  And of the Americans who actually have head of him, they're more likely to associate him with the Iraq War than anything else.  I doubt more than 10% of the American public even knows that he was the leader of the Labour Party lol

Exactly. Not only that, I doubt they know anyone in the U.S. armed forces who was in the U.S. military, sacrificed during the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars. Blair won't make a difference in the polling here. He was needed in the 1990's because if not for Blair, the Tories would have probably been around until 2001, with a tired Tory Party.

If it wasn't for Tony Blair, the Labour party would be doing a lot better today.
