Comments by "" (@thehumanity0) on "Tulsi Smeared By The Daily Beast In Dumbest Way Imaginable" video.
It's just a reality that Bernie is likely going to win (if a progressive wins). If you want Tulsi in the White House, you should realistically want her as Bernie's VP or Sec of State, it would set her up as a future president. I've seen a lot of Tulsi supporters bashing Bernie and they're only hurting their own self interests.

@dipojones Emerson has a fair methodology and they still have Tulsi at 1%. You can't dismiss ALL the polls, that's just silly.

@splorch Name a scientific poll then, I'm all ears. You can't just dismiss them all and Emerson is one of the most fair when considering progressives.

@splorch The last Emerson poll had Bernie trailing Biden by 8 points. When adjusting this poll for being slightly skewed towards older voters and bumping that number so Bernie is only trailing by 4 points, you still have Tulsi at 1% in the original poll, which means she would be at 2% at most or not even. Throwing all the data out the window and blankly believing Tulsi is somehow at over 10%, or even say 5%, is just pure fantasy. The math just does not add up even when you recalculate based on a more even methodology.

@splorch Yes, and my point being that even the several ones that have the best case scenarios for Bernie (and have more even methodologies towards progressive voters) still have Tulsi at around the same percentage score +/- 1%. I'm only citing Emerson because it was one of the only recent polls to come out that didn't exaggerate Joe Biden's numbers as many others did. I believe I also gave you the chance to cite your own poll as well and you refused. Even if we were to re-estimate the numbers and adjust them based on our own perceptions of a more fair methodology towards younger voters, it still shows us things we do not want to admit about our candidates. You have to come to terms with reality that Joe Biden is likely in the lead against Bernie, whether it is a narrow or medium-sized lead. And second, that Tulsi is polling around 1-2 percentage points. Maybe 3 at most, but I have yet to see one poll show her numbers as that high.

@splorch I should've said "more fair" (or "fair" in comparison to the other polls). We can put that to rest if that's all we're disagreeing on. However, you can still use Emerson and other polls to determine/estimate what you personally think is the correct polling data by slightly tweaking the methodology and re-estimating the numbers based on your own perception. It is not as if we have no idea what Tulsi's numbers are at nationally just because some polls have a skewed or slightly skewed methodology.

@splorch Whatever dude. I gave you the opportunity to give your own poll. If you don't want to trust any polling data full stop then that's your decision.
