a lot of them (include myself) are too old for those
starting jobs.
I am just afraid, that in a way, we repeat 2008, except
that Bernie is not a centrist. Once he should be in office
people go back to their old routine and expect all kinds
of miracles from him.
It needs the young generation to sacrifice and hold those
simple offices and rise from there.
