No way. Bernie woulda gotten red-baited into oblivion. Ask yourself, is the average American gonna choose the democratic-socialist, or the fascist?



Joey won because calling Joe Biden, the man who wrote the 1994 crime bill and marshaled support for the Iraq War a commie is just too much of a stretch.

Disagree.  It's not the 1950's anymore. 
The right-wing smear machine would've gone into overdrive. You give the average American a choice between a socialist and a fascist, they're going to choose the fascist.

The average American is 40 or so, the average under 35 would definitely vote socialist first. It's only a few years away at most.



A) >60% of voters are over 35 per most exit polls

B) Wait until every social media company tweaks their algorithm to favor anti-Bernie content.

Corporate America wouldn't have given him a fair chance.
