    Here’s the thing. I had questions for @CoryBooker. He then meticulously answered them. And also showed areas where he grew and evolved. Just open your mind. He’s a man of integrity. Works hard as hell.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/963865495345778689 …

    Many of my most progressive friends still have not quite accepted Cory Booker - claiming to be irked by a few votes. They then don’t apply that same standard to other people they love, almost without scrutiny. I’m a fan. Spoke with the man. One of the most genuine souls.

        He has a horrible record with Wall Street, he needs to make the right campaign commitments or no one is going to buy his turnaround.

        Still voted against Bernie's bill that would've lowered drug prices for people. He was and is still in big pharma's pocket. Wait for it.

        Purists are why Donald Trump is our President and if they have their way he will win a second term. The Perfect is the enemy of the Good. Cory Booker is a politician beholden to some but at his base a good man . In these times that is enough for me.

        He co-signed with Albright saying that women who didn't support HRC in the primary had a "special place in hell." AND he voted no on people being able to import more affordable drugs from Canada. He needs to address these things. They're serious issues.

        Shaun always the servant to corporates who masquerade as progressives. Trust takes time , is not something that is given it's earned. Good for Booker he's on the right track. He has alot to prove though.

        And here’s the problem. We can hold our friends to a high standard and criticize them when we disagree - but demanding purity from them is how we lose.

        I would love to know what questions you had for him and his answers.... Until then don't tell us to keep an open mind and try to make us feel sympathy for a powerful man who constantly undermines the working class

        Progs are holding their candidates to a purity test when the status quo is pure evil. There's the real world and the ideal world; personally, I'll take the best real world that I can get since the ideal world will always be just a dream. Unless you're a white naitionalist.

        As far as I'm able to tell, he tries to do the right thing which is what's important. Seems to be a good man in my opinion.

        If he straightens himself out on 2020, I will consider voting/advocating for him. Dems have a lot to make up for and a lot to change about themselves
