8. National Nurses United needs to kick those extremists

running it out. These 4 women have long histories of political activism, but that's not admirable when it strays over into underprincipled and very questionable extremism that does not represent those whose money they're using for their activities.

Reading about what they've been up to with Sanders, whom they creepily adopted as their own and set themselves to protect (accompanying him around the nation), in 2015 and since is very illuminating.

That includes, btw, supporting his stance in 2019 to refuse improvements to the ACA for purely political reasons. Against lower premiums and greater coverages! Nurses!

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