A town hall attendee in Maine took the opportunity to personally thank U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders

Americans with asthma rely on to breathe.
Democratic Party would never give him the chance after the narrative about age competency; he's a year older than Biden.
On top of that he's a "radical socialist anarchist protesting rebel".
Unfortunately the Dems are convinced they need a candidate close to centre to pull people from the right - I'm hoping the success of Harris proves this strategy is shit.
have you seen his old public tv show where he interviewed random people? he speaks to a very young goth looking couple. he's incredibly interested in their opinions and very understanding to their attitude. he's the kind of "old" you want. not bitter and defensive, but engaged, perceptive and understanding.
I think there are things he wants that he knows won't ever happen but he pushes for them anyway. Focusing on 'taxing the rich' is never going to happen (IMHO). I think, removing loop holes, and making sure everyone pays there share is a much better fight, and achieves the same results. I'm sure there are other things we're not lined up on but that one jumps out.
