on one hand i see what your are saying on the other im like why allow the other side set your terms.(tbh these status quo centrist dems are doing as great of a job as marginalizing progressives as the republicans) Warren has an affect that makes people comfortable without tryin she has that spunky over achiever excitement yet she is a shrewd progressive
On another note something i have been thinking about the whole primary/general dynamic is racist as fuck..."kitchen table issues" is an enduring euphemism

Can’t show evidence for a future event, that’s not how evidence works
But Bernie is just about as polarizing as Hillary was in the last election, to where including him on the ticket will push a certain number of voters to hold their nose and vote for Trump.
Without him these people might vote 3rd party or just stay home, and that could be the difference in the election.

Dems need to quit being pussy tho straight up. Several candidates on both debate nights said the others need to quit spouting Republican talking points to argue against each other.
Dems keep letting the republicans set the stage and just reacting and its frustrating as fuck

There is definitely that but some of these dems are just that in name.. they are as liberal as saving the environment.... they are reacting to the browning of america also.. they dont want to cede power and influence to progressive candidates.. im not one for calling the parties two sides of the same coin its a lot more nuanced than that but alot of these folk have entitlement issues and again they are pussy and compromise for an imagined political expediency

That’s the wrong mindset fam.
People will ALWAYS vote against their own interests unless and until we constantly SCREAM the TRUTH at them with FACTS & EVIDENCE while exposing the lies of Republicans and giant corporations.
WHO better to do that than the two strongest progressives of this generation?
What better time then this moment in history when the country is open to a progressive direction?
We ALWAYS trade in our values for something that the “centrists” or Republicans will tolerate.
Washington needs a progressive shake up. That much fire and passion on the ballot and in the White House Guarantees change.
Change is what this country needs.

I'm all for progressive ideals.... I'm also a realist and know that a lot of people in the US are wary when they hear ideas that might come from a Democratic Socialist and won't bother to check to see wtf it's about even if it will benefit them

You can support an educated opinion with data and past events.
It sound like you are stating your general opinion not data supported facts
Kamala is a Prosecutor with a questionable record.
Trump is a racist.
These are facts.
You speaking for millions of people and saying Bernie is “divisive” is your opinion.
There is a lot of polling data that contradict your point.

Polls are only as good as who gets polled
If they go with that ticket you’ll see I was right, but I hope we don’t have to find out
That sounds goods but it’s just not realistic. Majority of the country isn’t ready for that and it probably scares them.
Moving the country progressive is going to be a slow drip. But it starts with beating trump.
