Independent Senator Bernie Sanders will win the 2016 US presidential election since the Empire needs “a kinder, gentler way to sell its wars,” predicts Daniel Patrick Welch, an American writer and political analyst.
“I think I am going to go on record here and predict that Bernie Sanders is going to be the next president of the United States. I’m not the first; Western Illinois University poll said this months ago [in November],” Welch told Press TV on Wednesday.
“But I think I understand how the game is rigged now. [The US] Empire needs a kinder, gentler way to sell its wars. [George W.] Bush was a disaster although they forced him down our throats for eight years, and Obama was a great – you know, an empty suit to be sure, but that was perfect -- he did what he was told and made it sound compassionate to bomb the crap out of other countries,” he added.
“Now the powers that be may have to take a hit, like a modest increase in minimum wage, some sort of readjusting of the social safety net for Americans in order to keep their game going, and Sanders can do that. He is the only one talking about Americans’ real pain without challenging the wars, which he doesn’t,” Welch stated.
“So he doesn’t scare them. So it’s perfectly plausible that he could be the one to be put in office once the money lines up. And he will put a more human face while still posing as a fake socialist while taking money from Lockheed Martin and all of these other defense contractors which has supported strongly in his home state and nationally,” he noted.
“Americans don’t care, they don’t give a damn about the bodies. It’s so sad, but it’s true. All they want is a bigger cut of the profit, from Empire and from wars. And it’s a very small price for the warmongers to pay. If they’re going to make trillions, they can spend a few hundred billion on keeping Americans from massive social unrest. And the stage is set for some sort of shift in how the pie is distributed,” he pointed out.
“Again, it’s sad thing to say but Americans do not care about the victims of their wars. They do care that they are working more and making less, and are tired and hungry and angry. And that’s what motivates this circus we call voting in the United States,” the analyst concluded.
Senator Sanders, who calls himself a “Democratic socialist,” is seeking the Democratic Party’s nomination for the presidential election.
According to a new poll, Sanders has significantly expanded his lead over Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton in the key state of New Hampshire.
Sanders is now leading the former secretary of state by 27 percentage points in the Granite State, a new CNN/WMUR poll has found.
The Vermont senator is the favorite choice of 60 percent of likely Democratic primary voters in New Hampshire compared to 33 percent for Clinton.
