Sanders being president isn't going to destroy conservatism or the Republican party any more than Biden will. Electing Bernie's not going to defeat Trumpism, it'll survive when Trump leaves office. It's not written in stone that Sanders can do what Hillary failed, he hasn't been put into that kind of test as a politician in his life.
Nobody in this thread isn't saying they won't vote Bernie had he become the nominee, but there are many people who might in the general. Look at the last candidate who chose to ignore moderate voters, Sanders better be careful or he'll face the same fate.

This is what every candidate must do, and Sanders is horrible at it.
You don't have to convince us of that, we're all agreeing with you. The electorate and congress, however, are where this runs into a wall of conservativism - where progressive policies go to die. This isn't Canada where Universal Healthcare is the norm, this is America - where political ads about Death Panels prove to be effective deterrents in congress.

Progressives who don't believe conservatives are a serious threat in America end up losing, they're not facing a lame nobody like Stephen Harper here.
Why are you making light of harassment campaigns against high profile women? We're able to do more then one thing simultaneously. Politics is more than discussing policies, this isn't about candidates and people, sexism and racism, this came up earlier with Rogen and Sanders history. You're not electing a piece of paper you're electing a man, with all the flaws included. Harassment is a real issue, and that was an example of the Bros being
nice. Why should women voters rally for Sanders when he refuses to take their concerns about harassment and sexism seriously? Women, being people who belong to the poorer classes, it's not like they don't get harassment online. You're not showing much respect for Warren here.
