Check out Bernie Sanders. Yeah he's 80 years old but he's fighting for the poor and middle class his whole life. He's the only senator in the US that doesn't belong to either political party.
This guy got arrested marching for civil rights with Martin Luther King. It sucks that he's so old but his mind is sharp. He, Warren, Lina Khan and Alexandria Cortez are the only national level politicians I respect. And Lina Khan got fired by Trump already.
That's just one video. Every day he's out there fighting for the workers.
I…. can’t do Sanders. His supporters rub me the wrong way the way Clinton’s did. Like it’s really hard for me to take a step towards considering a candidate if instead of helping me form an informed decision, I get trashed or called names for even considering someone else (first time I voted I did third party, Clinton voters called me sexist even though I voted for a woman).
AOC, Warren seem more clinical in their approach than Sanders.
Biden, Harris, Clinton all suffer from the same ailment: “it’s my turn so vote for me”.
I do like AOC too, but she’s not a perfect match for my views like Warren seems to be
I hope you'll give him another look. Any person's supporters can be shitty. I'm sure if he heard what they were saying in his name he'd lay the smackdown. If you consider him just as a politician, on the merits of the legislation he has supported and opposed, I hope you'll see he's a valuable ally.
When we only have three or so people in Congress working for the workers of the country maybe we shouldn't throw him out because of something his supporters did.
