    Not joking. I asked about a dozen people who told me they are supporting Joe Biden what they like about his views or policy positions.... And they had absolutely no idea. I asked them what they knew about his views on a variety of issues. They had nothing. Mainly just Obama.

        Or... and this is important..... he has the strongest matchup polling against Trump. This election is FAR more about who we DON’T want than who we DO. Last one should have been, and we messed it up. We CANNOT repeat that mistake.

        It wouldn't have happened like that if the DNC didn't deliberately sabotage Bernie last time. Choosing a lesser evil is not a valid option. Johnson was the best option but people only look at the 2 parties and go that route. We will all be in nad shape if that continues

        Choosing the “lesser evil” would have kept babies out of cages, prevented the Muslim ban, kept Transgender military people in service, kept the leash on the Klan & white nationalists, and kept our international relationships intact. It is incomprehensible that you don’t see that.

        The “lesser evil” would have appointed SCOTUS Justices who respect women, given Dreamers legal status, stayed in the Paris Climate Accord, put scientists at the EPA, not entered a trade war with China, not kissed Kim Jun Un’s ass, not bowed down to Putin in Helsinki,need I go on?

        Interesting. I'd asked about a dozen people who claim they support Bernie Sanders and found they too had no idea about his views or policy positions.

        Nah, while anecdotal, they’re probably right. I deal with the public in one on one situations all day, every day and most people are so disconnected from pols, they really don’t know much about officials and candidates policy or positions. It’s widespread.

        Bingo. And people don't have to be super knowledgeable about policy to understand Trump is causing damage.

        And the media doesn’t help. It’s not like they are comparing policy proposals to help the public understand. They just ask stupid horse race questions.

        You must be so proud of yourself that people are dying for lack of insulin in your country. They are literally dying on the street under what is still the ACA.

        The ACA is on life support after 45’s hatchet job. There isn’t much left but pre-existing conditions. If the Bernie folks keep up the all out assault on every moderate candidate that will be gone too in 2021.

        Nope the ACA didn't prevent sharp rise in med cost. These laws have been there long before 45. Don't make as if everyone had health care before 45, anyone that can support a system that let's 10% of his population without health care and millions under insured....

        In the richest country in the world, has no heart. More so when you have all, I mean all, the other industrialised countries providing health care to all at half the cost. How can anyone defend that, 40000 die every year, more than gun violence.
