    I respect @BernieSanders. I am a surrogate for his campaign. Don’t collect a check. Never have. I just believe in him. But if he waxed nostalgic about a white supremacist calling him “son,” which would never happen, but if it did, I’d call him out. Privately & Publicly.

        What are your thoughts on how he dealt with (or more accurately didn’t deal with) harassment allegations on his campaign? Have you called him out for that?

        Good on Bernie, glad to see him leading this (and his proposal to create employee stocks) but that alone doesn't influence how I vote. I think a #UBI would be way more impactful to more Americans than forcing them into a minimum wage #JG government job. Amongst other policies.

        UBI is a covert way to eliminate SS, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, unemployment benefits. Yang pretty much said this in an interview I believe with Rubin.

        Appreciate your concerns and looking out for the little guy. But then I think you'll be pleasantly surprised to see Yang address this exact point about Social Security from a critical interviewer https://youtu.be/Z3oZr6arNhw?t=74 … He's also for #Medicare4Allhttps://www.yang2020.com/policies/medicare-for-all/ …

        Regarding unemployment & food stamps, those are conditional programs in which you have to be means-tested (meaning judged by a bureaucrat if you're poor enough). Because of this, many applicants fall through the cracks and never receive help. With a UBI they get it every month.

        What about the fact that Bernie has been railing against the 1% for years ... only for him to reveal he is part of the 1% ... he wrote a best seller and deserves the money - but it looks a little hypocritical to me ...

        Yes Marc! His secret plan was to rail against the 1% for his entire career. To vote that way. To lead. And then to run a unbelievable campaign against an establishment chosen one, then to cash in by writing a book. If he had that much foresight we should sprint to make him pres

        after 2016 little shocks me but the daily trash that flows out of biden is insane and if sanders had done or said even a fraction of the things biden has in just THIS campaign (let alone his past) he would be relentlessly torn apart by the centrist democrats. they don’t care!

        If you're making judgment calls, why not call Bernie out for not financially supporting his son in the 70s as he ran around the state running for office? Does Levi's mom not deserve to be recognized for having to raise her child alone on welfare?https://twitter.com/mgranville1/status/1093295853907922946 …

        In 1974, Levi Sanders' mother, Susan Mott, is quoted in Burlington Free Press saying, "she is refused apartments because she is on welfare and has one child. @SenSanders, with a UChicago degree, isn't working but running for VT Senator where he wins 4% of the vote as a socialist. pic.twitter.com/NHrKje0NVi
