2. Bernie is one of the old ones that somehow reaches young people but his authenticity also

reaches older white people too. There aren’t many with those special credibility qualities. I wish there were because we need more doing this. AOC has been out in NY but as much as I love her, she isn’t going to reach R leaning older white rural men like Bernie does. But we definitely need to find more spokespeople to get out on the road like this. Andy Beshear would be a good one. Tim Walz as well. I think they have the credibility to reach the people Bernie is targeting.
