if you had to...

I just heard on 1010 WINS that Bloomberg may consider running for president. He better jump in soon, if he's serious.

Without turning it into a big debate (because no one ever changes his or her mind, anyway) - if you had to vote right this moment, who would get your vote?

Poll for privacy :)

I only put the current candidates because at this point, I don't think there will be anyone else edging up towards the front (but maybe I'm wrong).

I also ask because it seems SO MANY people are all about Sanders, but the media constantly reports on Clinton (which some say is intentional due to donations, etc).

Curious to see..maybe we can do another poll in a few months, too.

i actually really like Bloomberg, but would prefer that he not run because i think many voters who would otherwise have voted for Sanders or Hilary would vote for him instead (and therefore diluting the pool)

My only goal is to make sure Trump or Cruz don't set foot in that white house.. scary

I do not know. Most of the people I talk to would like to see Clinton get elected because it's time for a woman president and they compare her to Merkel.

I think if they knew Sanders's stance on guns and how he has no idea about foreign policy, they might think differently.

I followed Bernie Sanders on Facebook way before he was running for President, because I liked what he had to say. I feel he has revised his gun control stance, which I did not necessarily agree with, but as he pointed out, he was representing his constituents who live in a rural state.

I still believe he is the best candidate for the middle class. My husband is an economist and though he supports a different candidate, he feels Sanders' healthcare plans will be effective and affordable.

He and his sidekick Caribou Barbie have both lost their marbles. You know he will give her a cabinet post which would screw us even more. So glad to know he could shoot someone and not lose any supporters. Chat Icon Chat Icon

The fact that he said that and people still continue to support him just blows my mind.

I refuse to vote for any of these candidates. I will likely vote independent, whether that candidate be Bloomberg or someone else.

l will say that there are some things that trump is for that I'm on board with. Now before you throw the tomatoes, I'm not voting for him. But I can understand why he's appealing to some, because I know people are sick of politics in general and think it probably can't get any worse and maybe let's try something different.

I love me some Sanders. I always try to go in with an open mind, I'm a register dem and pretty liberal but I will watch the republican debates and watch Fox News. I try to give it a fair shot, you know. I want to vote on issues, not just because of my party. I liked some of the R candidates but I still can't do it. I stil have yet to vote R. Maybe one day.

I cannot fathom how anyone could possibly be taking Trump seriously or consider voting for him.

Bloomberg could be a game changer. He's more wealthy than Trump! And we know how trump likes to always say how rich he is Chat Icon

Those Sander numbers in the poll kind of reflect my suspicions. It seems the liberal media looooves Hillary but I suspect there's more people feeling the Bern. Seems so with the poll here (totally unscientific, of course!)

I do think people will be surprised. Bernie has a lot of followers who are super loyal. But it's frustrating that the mainstream media does not give him the coverage others are getting. My mom, who does not use social media but is pretty in the loop, did not know who Sanders was till I told her. I feel like MSNBC gives Trump more airtime than anyone else.

It will be interesting if Bloomberg runs. I am an ex city teacher so you can guess how I feel about him. Chat Icon But politically I do agree with many of his stances. But he will take from whoever the Democratic candidate is- especially if it is Hillary.

I don't like any of them. But I'm loyal to my party so whoever gets the nomination will get my vote.

Bloomberg never! I'm from Queens and have a very long memory. He bought his third term! Sandy was his Waterloo because anyone without a 212 phone number didn't exist and to him probably still don't. FOH.
