Bernie is such a good guy. The Dems have done him dirty so many times, they are currently continuing to support many harmful policies but he understands what’s at stake and he puts all of that aside to do the best he can.
He doesn’t have to do this. He’s 83 years old and while his cognitive health is outstanding for his age, someone his age doesn’t need to be on this grind for us. He probably won’t stop until he’s forced to due to his health. I love the guy and it’s a shame we weren’t given the chance to see him take the presidency.
I remember that old footage of him in Burlington in the 70’s, talking to random kids in the mall about issue, asking them was important to them–drug policy, free speech, good schools–and just talking to them about how they make a difference. From the bully pulpit, he would have been transformative.

He is a leader.
