Like him or not, this is a brilliant idea:

We visited the Vermont factory when we were in New England last Fall. I was shocked at how small it was and the fact they normally only make one flavor a day, just lots of it. I believe they said each employee gets two free pints a day. What a way to go.

He needs to put his $$$ where his mouth is and make a larger portion FREE to others since Sanders wants to give everything away for free.

Why not just charge the 1%?

If it's successful, maybe they'll do an ice cream variety for all of the candidates! Marc's suggestion for Hillary is fantastic: "Email Female"! Too funny!

Thanks Neil.  Rubio's could be "Marco Almond Bark-O".

Certainly he is a member of the 1% club so he should eat the costs. Instead of being a blowhard, he needs to follow in the lead of his candidate who thinks everything should be free and only the 1% people should pay for all of it.

Hey, this is a Wacky forum let's keep the politics out of it.  Also Bernie's net worth is $528K so a member of the 1% club he aint.

Why would I care about Sanders net worth when I am talking about the guy making the ice cream. Take notice of the words "his candidate."

LOL I wouldn't go that far! I can find pluses with nearly every candidate except for the female who only comes back to Scranton (where she spent her summers and where daddy is planted) when she needs to brown nose.

Agree. Keep politics out of it, and instead focus on coming up with names for ice cream flavors for Cruz, Trump, Bush, Kasich, Christie, O'Malley, Fiorina, Rand Paul, Huckabee, Santorum, etc.

There used to be a Pillsbury Funny Face Drink mix (similar to Kool Aid mix) called Loud Mouth Lime. That may have also suited Donald Trump.  (Wish I could come up with something better....)

There could be a vanilla ice cream laced with a sweetened oatmeal ripple...............Farina Fiorina.

Lets talk about POLITICIANS and their appropriately named (based on their behavior and/or platforms) ice cream but lets keep politics out of it? That's like discussing the latest series of cards but not the gags surrounding them.

Good point, particularly with respect to Email Female.  However, Marco Almond Bark-o and Farina Fiorina are based only on the candidate's names and not on any behaviors or platforms.  Just sayin....

A couple more d-electable flavors:

"Jeb's Rocky Road" (the name says it all).

Trump: "Bed Head Honcho" (Vanilla sprinkled with Hairy Lee Brownies).

Last night on the Colbert show, they covered the same topic. Some of my favorites I remember...

- Chris Christie's  BLOCKY ROAD ( with a bridge in the background with orange road cones blocking the lanes)

- Hillary Clinton's  WHATEVER FLAVOR YOU WANT IT TO BE

- Donald Trump's MAKE AMERICA GRAPE AGAIN (but for some reason the ice cream is orange)

- Jeb Bush's VANILLA VANILLA

- Martin O'Malley Mocha

The Trump ice cream is orange to match his hair, but I like the imagery's of Neil's Hairy Lee better.....

I hadn't heard that Ben & Jerry celebrated the legalization of gay marriage in Vermont by renaming the “Chubby Hubby” flavor to “Hubby Hubby”

I can see the numbers, but I still have a hard time believing they are not fudged somehow. At $528K his Cadillac health care plan alone is worth that! Does he live in a shoebox?
