2/11/16 Unit 1

                                Those who don't "feel the Bern" may be fearing it instead  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/republican-strategist-bernie-sanders-clinton_us_56bbafb3e4b0c3c5504ff6c7
                     Dave Carney as a republican strategist has been studying the candidates and their similarities. He feels that Bernie Sanders uses some of the same strategies that Trump uses to over come his voters. He believes that Sanders is going to have a higher turnout than Hillary because of this reason and others when it comes to presidential elections.
Showing the differences in controversial issues and which candidate supports or opposes each one.
                      Carney believes that Sanders gets to his people in the same way trump does. He talks mostly about the disconnect between the people who make and/or have the most money or who he refers to them as as "elites" and the rest of us. Though Trump and Sanders have a very different way of doing so, the same type of people become stirred up; they're just on different sides of the political spectrum. He talks about Bernie's new approach and how that seems to be holding more of an interest with the people compared to the ways of Hillary and her campaigning. Even though Bernie refers to himself as a democratic socialist, Carney predicts that with the campaigning he's doing and success with the younger people he's achieving; that when it comes time for the voting, that title is not going to mean as much. We have recently been learning more about the candidates and their political strategies in order to gain followers, especially with the younger generation, in which Bernie seems to be achieving.

Perhaps a few months outdated, still shows the rise in Bernie's campaigning and the eventual decreasing of Hilary's
