      Let me put my political philosophy for presidential campaigns on the table. If you say you believe something today, but don't have a clear demonstrated history of fighting for that thing before the campaign, and are between 40-80 years old, I just don't believe you.

      So when @ewarren says she cares about income inequality and gives a speech on it and unveils sweeping policies to address income inequality... GUESS WHAT? I believe her. Because she's been fighting for this for decades. She'll fight for it win or lose. It's who she is.

      When @CoryBooker comes out and says he wants to decriminalize marijuana and make sweeping criminal justice reforms central to his campaign.... GUESS WHAT? I believe him. He knows those issues and has proposed courageous legislation on them. He'll fight for that win or lose.

          When @BernieSanders speaks out against racism, income inequality, worker's rights, housing accessibility and affordability, criminal justice reform, the environment, etc. GUESS WHAT? I believe him. The man fights for those things AS A HOBBY - it's his life's work.

          Booker passed on a bill Bernie introduced to lower the cost of prescriptions, and this hypocrisy doesn't set off any alarms?

          Bernie is my preference, but I’d happily vote for Cory Booker if nominated. Truthfully, I’ll vote for anyone the Dems nominate. I’d vote for a potato to get rid of the current administration. But a Sanders/Booker ticket would also be amazing. We have many fine options this time.

          Shaun, you were doing well until you brought up Booker. Cory Booker may well be the phoniest corporate shill we will see in our lifetimes. He may have a history on prison reform, but he embraces and leg-humps corporate donors like nobody else.

          Cory Booker is big pharma’s pick. I don’t buy it unless pharma can profit off the legalization of marijuana.

          Exactly. Big pharma is already working on synthetic marijuana.
