I don't see how Sanders has any possible chance in a general election. The promises he was highlighting in his speech were just not sound policies. $15 minimum wage, free college for everyone, paying for it all by taxing wall street speculators and Medicare for everyone won't hold up as being good ideas under any scrutiny. Medicare for everyone is really the only one that he could make a compelling argument for, but it would almost be impossible for a president to implement it.

I guess if it is between Rubio, Cruz, Trump, Sanders and Clinton, then I have to go with Clinton. The other 4 all seem like awful and dangerous choices.
