"...The supposed unelectability of Bernie Sanders, the Democratic front runner, is not supported by the data at all.... The survival of democracy here and elsewhere is once again the key issue of our crisis, just as in 1861 and 1932...." DK
If Sanders is elected, democracy does not survive.
If Sanders is defeated, democracy does not survive.
Morton's Fork
Another example of Morton's fork is a swim test for witchcraft that was performed in the Early Modern period. The suspected witch was tied up and thrown in the water. If they floated, that was considered to be proof of witchery. If the suspect sank and drowned, they were deemed innocent. Either way, the outcome was the same; the test subject died.
