Bernie Sanders Will Be Running For President Again Bernie Joins 2020 Presidential Race

By Jose O'Neill

Vermont independent and 2016 democratic party runner-up, Bernie Sanders announced earlier today that he will be running for president again.

S.U. Puerto Rican Student, Sofia Tellechea is pleased with his announcement.

“I think it is a a very good decision. I am a liberal, I know he’s a liberal so I’m down for any candidate that is as liberal as well. I am also a latina and he advocates for a lot of latino rights so i’m glad that he is running.”

The self-styled democratic socialist is among the best known politicians in college campuses to join the already crowded race. However, S.U. student Aarie Vann doesn’t think the support will be the same.

“I think he’ll definitely have a lot of support from college campuses. I don’t don’t know if he’ll have as much support because there is so many people running for president; you have at least three people who would consider themselves progressive candidates so that support my be divided among those three or maybe one of them will be more persuasive than he is and get more college kids. It just depends, there is so many people running right now that it is very hard to tell what is going to happen.

With such a competitive and diverse field, the fa left-wing democrat faces a great challenge. Sanders will be running up against big contenders like Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren and Kamala harris.

“I don’t know if he’ll get as much support among the older crowd I think it’s going to be kind of similar to what happened in 2016 with Clinton getting a lot of the older people and Bernie getting a lot of the younger people.”

It seems like it is going to take a lot more than Medicare for all, a 15-dollar minimum wage and tuition-free public colleges to succeed in this elections.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (NCC News) – Tuesday morning the Vermont Independent and 2016 Democratic Party  runner-up, Bernie Sanders, announced that he will be joining the presidential race again.

Syracuse University junior Sofia Tellechea says she is really pleased and excited about his announcement on running for president.

“I think it is a a very good decision. I am a liberal, I know he’s a liberal so I’m down for any candidate that is as liberal as well,” said Sofia.

Sanders, a far left-wing democrat, is within the better known politicians in college campuses. In 2016, his socialistic policies gathered a lot of attention among the younger generations.

However, with such a packed and competitive race, Syracuse University student Aarie Vann is not so sure that the support will be the same.

“I don’t know if he’ll get as much support among the older crowd, I think it’s going to be kind of similar to what happened in 2016 with Clinton getting a lot of the older people and Bernie getting a lot of the younger people,” Vann said.

The 77-year-old left-wing candidate faces a great challenge for the upcoming elections. Sanders will be running up against big contenders like Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, among others.
