Bernie's repeated finger wagging last night reminded me of this I recently read in The Nation

8. The author doesn't see Bernie able to get his 'redistributive economic policies' thru Congress

This is a very pragmatic reason for the author to support Hillary and not Bernie--the practical matter of his electability--while noting Hillary shares the leftist agenda for women and would be in a position to carry it out in the Oval Office as the first woman President.

She concludes...

It’s unlikely that Bernie’s redistributive economic policies, admirable as they are, would ever make their way through Congress. How is a leftist agenda that remains little more than a vision better for women than actually having a woman (who has, don’t forget, an agenda that shares much in common with this vision)—after all these years—in the Oval Office?

Hillary as president will not usher in a profound realignment of US priorities and politics. No electable mainstream candidate will do that—see Obama’s legacy if you have any doubts. But she just might help us remember that “feminist” isn’t an epithet; it’s a badge of honor.
