Does anyone notice? Warren is the only one going there talking about POC issues and last night fighting for woman. This has solely been a campaign that Sanders has wanted where the discussion is constantly focused on the most discriminated again, young, white, male, middle class. The words social justice has not even been a part of 2020 conversation. That is sad.

keep an eye on that.

Until then, I tend to consider our candidate comparisons a little negative indulgence.

But I get the spirit of what you say. You want more of our leaders like her.

I still think that when we see high morality in a woman, we can do better than to pity that the men don't have it.

That ANY Democrat, women equally with male candidates, displays it, speaks well for our whole party.

Men gotta always be pitied when they're not at the top of any game. I resist that bias.

The perfect must never be the enemy of the good when we speak of, to and for each other.
