I can understand your frustration and while there's a part of me that thinks he has a snowballs chance in hell of winning, one need only look at our current president to see how a long-shot can win. Remember that when Obama won the likely candidate was either Jon Edwards or Hillary Clinton. Jon Edwards imploded and it was a battle to the finish for Obama/Clinton. Honestly, I would guess that even Bernie knows he has a very slim chance of a victory but a very real chance of impacting the course of the national dialog and therefore future policy. But it could happen. Thing is, you're young and many of us have seen this go down before via Nader, Forbes, Perot, Ron P Etc. It could happen tho...
