I WAS RECENTLY IN WASHINGTON AND A LOT OF PEOPLE
UNDERSTANDABLY ASKED ME, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
WHO IS GOING TO RUN
ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE IN 2020 FOR PRESIDENT?
THAT'S A GOOD
QUESTION, AND ONE I DIDN'T HAVE A GREAT ANSWER FOR, BECAUSE WHEN
YOU GET PAST BERNIE SANDERS IT'S NOT ENTIRELY CLEAR WHO WOULD BE
THE FRONT-RUNNER.
AND THEN I THOUGHT, WAIT, THERE IS A GUY
WHO ACTUALLY COULD -- OH, HOW ABOUT BERNIE SANDERS?
THERE IS A
REASON WHY EVERYONE, INCLUDING ME, BY THE WAY, I WILL FESS UP
TO THIS, THOUGHT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE BERNIE SANDERS.
WHY?
BECAUSE IT'S CONVENTIONAL THINKING, I WAS GUILTY ABOUT IT
FOR A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER THE ELECTION, HE WILL BE TOO OLD.
LET'S INVESTIGATE THAT.
YES, IN 2020 WHEN THE ELECTION IS BERNIE
SANDERS WILL BE 79.
BUT DONALD TRUMP WILL BE 75.
HILLARY
CLINTON, GOD FORBID, WILL BE 73.
A PERSON WHO IS OFTEN MENTIONED
IN THESE CONVERSATIONS, ELIZABETH WARREN, WELL BE 71.
THEY ARE ALL IN THEIR 70S.
LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING.
WOULD YOU
TAKE BERNIE SANDERS AT 79 OR DONALD TRUMP AT 75?
WOULD
YOU TAKE BERNIE SANDERS AT 79 OR DONALD TRUMP AT 30?
SANDERS AT
79 OR DONALD TRUMP AT ANY AGE?
I THINK BERNIE
SANDERS AT 79 OR
109?
>>PEOPLE SAY BERNIE SANDERS LOOKS ALL RUMPLED AND HIS HAIR
ISN'T COMBED, IN THE OLD DAYS THAT WOULD BE A TERRIBLE
DISADVANTAGE BECAUSE POLITICIANS WERE SLICK, THESE DAYS IT'S A
DISADVANTAGE BECAUSE WE KNOW YOU ARE A PHONY.
IT'S AN ADVANTAGE
FOR SANDERS.
THE CONVENTIONAL WAY OF THINKING IS BERNIE WILL
BE TOO OLD.
REALLY?
PEOPLE LIVE LONG LIVES NOW, HE WILL PICK A
GREAT VICE PRESIDENT, 79 ISN'T THAT MUCH OLDER THAN 75,
PRESUMABLY HE WILL BE RUNNING AGAINST TRUMP, I DON'T KNOW IF
YOU WILL MAKE IT -- I PROPOSE THE MOST POPULAR POLITICIAN IN
THE COUNTRY IS THE ONE WE SHOULD MAKE THE FRONT-RUNNER.
I KNOW,
WILD AND CRAZY THEORY.
LET ME SHOW YOU A RECENT HEADLINE --
>>WAY AHEAD OF DONALD TRUMP, WAY AHEAD OF HILLARY CLINTON,
WAY AHEAD OF EVERYONE ELSE AS YOU WILL SEE IN A SECOND.
IN
FACT IF YOU SAY YES, BUT LOOK, HE LOST THE PRIMARY TO HILLARY
CLINTON -- WHO WENT AWAY HAD THE ENTIRE ESTABLISHMENT BEHIND HER,
HAD THE BIGGEST BRAND NAME IN DEMOCRATIC PARTY HISTORY, AND HE
CLOSED A 60 POINT LEAD ANYWAY -- THEY HAVE ALL THESE NONSENSE
TALKING POINTS AGAINST BERNIE SANDERS, HE ONLY GETS WHITE
DEMOCRATIC VOTERS.
REALLY?
LET'S LOOK AT THE POLLING AND SEE WHAT
HAPPENS --
>>IT TURNS OUT, NO, HE'S DOING WONDERFUL.
EVEN AMONG DEMOCRATS,
AND EVERY KIND OF DEMOCRAT THERE IS.
MEANWHILE, HOW IS HILLARY
CLINTON DOING?
WE SHOULDN'T EVEN BE HAVING THIS CONVERSATION --
HILLARY CLINTON, YOU ALREADY LOST THE DONALD TRUMP.
BUT
PEOPLE IN WASHINGTON ARE SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING IT.
NO.
LET ME SHOW YOU HER NUMBERS NOW.
HER NUMBERS NOW, SITTING AT 35%
FAVORABLE, 55% UNFAVORABLE.
BERNIE IS AT 62%, SHE IS AT 35%,
I'LL TO QUICK MATH FOR YOU GUYS -- THAT'S A 25 POINT LEAD HE HAS
ON HER IN FAVORABILITY.
THIS IS NOT A CONVERSATION.
THERE IS
SOMEONE WHO IS THE PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE OF THE DEMOCRATS, AND IT
IS VERY CLEAR.
I'LL GIVE YOU ONE MORE, THOUGH.
HERE IS ANOTHER
POLL, OF ALL PLACES A FOX NEWS POLL, EVEN FOX NEWS HAS TO ADMIT
THAT BERNIE SANDERS IS NOT JUST THE MOST POPULAR POLITICIAN, THE
MOST POPULAR ANYTHING IN THE COUNTRY.
THEY POLLED POLITICIANS
AND ISSUES, BERNIE SANDERS CAME IN NUMBER ONE. +29.
DONALD
TRUMP, -9.
IF IT'S SANDERS VERSUS TRUMP IN 2020, SANDERS
RIGHT NOW HAS A 38 POINT LEAD ON HIM. 38.
THAT'S THE FOX POLL I
JUST SHOWED YOU, AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT FLAT OUT FAVORABILITY,
61 TO 44.
EVEN RIGHT THERE, A GIGANTIC 17 POINT LEAD ON
FAVORABILITY.
THAT DOESN'T EVEN TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE
UNFAVORABLE NUMBERS I MENTIONED EARLIER.
SO WHO IS THE
PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE FOR THE DEMOCRATS IN 2020?
IT'S THE MOST
OBVIOUS QUESTION OF ALL TIME.
AND BY THE WAY, I REMEMBER WHEN
HILLARY CLINTON WAS THE PRESUMPTIVE NOMINEE, AND THE
ENTIRE DEMOCRATIC PARTY TOLD US THAT NO ONE SHOULD RUN AGAINST
HER.
HEY, WE HAVE A VERY SIMILAR SITUATION HERE.
SOMEONE WHO IS
THE MOST POPULAR POLITICIAN IN THE COUNTRY, LUCKY YOU, HE'S ON
THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE, AND HE JUST RAN -- REMEMBER HILLARY CLINTON
LOST THE PRIMARY IN 2008, THAT SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM AT ALL,
LOSING A PRIMARY EARLIER, THEY STILL HAD HILLARY CLINTON AS THE
PERCEPTIVE NOMINEE.
SHE LOST TO OBAMA SO SHE WAS NEXT UP.
THIS
IS NOT MY LOGIC -- I BELIEVE IN PRIMARIES, I BELIEVE EVERYONE
SHOULD RUN, NO MATTER WHO I SUPPORT -- BUT ACCORDING TO THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY ESTABLISHMENT LOGIC BERNIE SANDERS WILL BE UP
NEXT, AND THE GUY UP NEXT IS INCREDIBLY POPULAR.
LUCKY YOU,
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
I ASSUME NOW YOU WILL ALL FALL IN LINE BEHIND
BERNIE SANDERS UNTIL EVERYONE ELSE THEY SHOULD EVEN GET INTO
THE RACE.
LET'S SEE HOW THAT TURNS OUT.
