H.A. Goodman is a Bernie Bro from way back. That doesn't preclude him from having an opinion of course. And I wouldn't mind seeing Bernie become President. The funny thing is that he wouldn't be at all out of place in the ALP. But over there, he's probably too left-wing. He is a self-described democratic socialist and for Americans that reads as Soviet-style Communist. He's done America a favour by helping to rehabilitate the democratic socialist tag but I'm sure Trump would love to do a Joe McCarthy on him.
There's a common line of thought that Hillary is a poor campaigner but would make a good president if she were to win the election. She's lucky she's up against Trump as he may well blow up his campaign. She's lucky Trump took out Rubio. He is an impressive debater (in conventional, non-Trump debates at least) and his Latino background would have helped him. In addition, there would have been a young/old and smooth/stilted disparity that would have helped him.
