Was curious to hear what Sanders wants to do [View all]

My main question is whether Sanders wants so much to challenge Biden to let supporters leave him that we may lose, the way we ended up in 2016.

No, Biden's supporters are not the people older than 65. There are many young, in the African American communities, in the suburbs.

He keeps pushing for Medicare for All as the only solution to our problems with current health care. As in this case?

Elderly go blind as NHS ignores eye surgery rationing advice

Tens of thousands of elderly people are left struggling to see because of an NHS cost-cutting drive that relies on them dying before they can qualify for cataract surgery, senior doctors say.

The NHS has ignored instructions to end cataract treatment rationing in defiance of official guidance two years ago, a survey by the Royal College of Ophthalmologists has found.

Biden know that we can make the ACA better and he should stick to it.

Making sure that "all of our people can go to college or trade school, regardless of their income?" No, the ones who can should pay. Not the "affluenza" kids, not the ones who rape sorority girls and get away with it. And not the ones who want to study something interesting with no chance of making a living. They can start with a 2 year college and then transfer.

I now agree with others who say that there is no reason for tomorrow debate if Sanders' sole purpose is to kill the only chance we have to win, since he cannot get the 1990 delegates.








If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
