Excellent speech by Sen. Sanders - He missed addressing a few important things [View all]
...notably, women's reproductive rights; immigrant rights...
Racism; criminal justice; discrimination; lgbt rights; disability rights - all crammed into a sentence at the end like an afterthought.
The closest he got to outlining these in his address was his repetition of economic justice, which, although important and a worthy focus, doesn't necessarily encompass or deal with these concerns.
I look forward to the senator expanding on them and fleshing these out in the future.

The problem that "insurgent" progressive Democratic prez candidates tend to face is expanding their base past white, college-educated voters
