Climate change has changed everything. [View all]

Throughout my life I've been a centrist liberal (whatever that is.... not a Sanders supporter). I was for Buttigieg, then Biden when he announced. Then, at some point (I think maybe when Warren pointed out that we have much bigger problems than Trump), it dawned on me that we don't have any time left to do something about climate change. Incrementalism has lost its opportunity. I switched my support to Warren... Go for broke is our only option. The up side of this is that, since we MUST switch to big ideas now because of climate change, we can also switch to big ideas to address the wealth gap and health care.

Does this resonate with any of you DUers?
