Hey, why not nominate Bernie Sanders? That, it seems, is what Democrats are saying to themselves — and happily. Sanders appears to have romped in Nevada, where entrance polls indicate he even won with self-described moderates and conservatives — and remember, Bernie is the most left-wing person ever to run for the presidency.

     First Trump, now Sanders.  Dems are making up a problem.  U.S. officials have reportedly told Sen. Bernie Sanders that Russia is attempting to help his presidential campaign, a revelation that follows U.S. intelligence officials briefing Capitol Hill that the Kremlin may also be attempting to help President Donald Trump in 2020 as they did in 2016. Sanders in a statement disavowed any alleged assistance from Russia President Vladimir Putin.

     "I don't care, frankly, who Putin wants to be president. My message to Putin is clear: stay out of American elections, and as president I will make sure that you do." The warning about the Russia effort to help Sanders, which was first reported by The Washington Post, was also information given to Trump and lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

     Sanders acknowledged he was briefed "about a month ago" about Russia's efforts, telling reporters Friday that he was "told Russia and other countries" were interfering in the elections. "It was not clear what role they were going to play," he explained. "We were told that Russia and maybe other countries were going to get involved in this campaign." When asked why this news was just coming out after he was briefed a month ago, Sanders said, "I'll let you guess, one day before the Nevada caucus. Why do you think it came out? It was the Washington Post? Good friends," he said
