The Democratic Party has been a broad based party for something like 70 years. It started with Humphrey and other democrats taking on the Dixiecrats in the forties.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

There's certainly an anti-Bernie component at work here BeyondGeography Jun 2019 #7

She is the best moderate candidate we have. Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #11

Warren isn't moderate. HerbChestnut Jun 2019 #17

disagree, Warren is to the left of Sanders since she supports planned parenthood JI7 Jun 2019 #21

Planned parenthood exists and is needed due to a vacuum of accessible medical care. Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #23

I don't think Bernie's plan is to abolish Planned Parenthood? More likely the govt will emulatorloo Jun 2019 #25

Agreed completely. Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #34

And sensible gun control, which bs does not. we can do it Jun 2019 #63

FWIW Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #22

Agreed. Just a little to the right of what I would call "not moderate" Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #39

You simply can't believe this. It's not possible. SouthernProgressive Jun 2019 #33

She isnt a democratic socialist Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #40

But she actually gets things done. Talk is talk - if there aren't any ehrnst Jun 2019 #43

Warren is moderate? mcar Jun 2019 #38

Yeah Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #41

She got the CFPB into existence. Her accomplishments are to the left of Sanders. ehrnst Jun 2019 #44

Agreed. Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #47

Not seeing anything there to rival Warren's accomplishment with the CFPB, ehrnst Jun 2019 #56

Shes a great candidate, shes honest and her policies benefit the vast majority Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #57

Well, that's different than saying "she's moderate." ehrnst Jun 2019 #58

I think you are right Tiggeroshii Jun 2019 #59

Bernie had the guts to run in 2016 BeyondGeography Jun 2019 #29

Why did you that Bernie was deferring to Warren before running in 2016? ehrnst Jun 2019 #48

He jumped in late when it was clear Warren wasn't running BeyondGeography Jun 2019 #49

I think that nothing and no one would stop Sanders from running. ehrnst Jun 2019 #51

Here's a good article on that BeyondGeography Jun 2019 #53

Did she discuss this with Sanders? ehrnst Jun 2019 #55

Warren's her own person. emulatorloo Jun 2019 #78
