Former Vermont Governor Shumlin endorses Joe Biden

[peggysue2]

6. Whoa!

Governor Shumlin and his team attempted to provide M4A (GreenMountain Care) for the state of Vermont. The man was dedicated to the mission but was unable to get the numbers to fly without reducing coverage or raising taxes to onerous levels. In the one article I read, he was quoted as saying he feared Bernie Sanders and his supporters had not taken the right lessons from Vermont's M4A attempt, that without reducing healthcare costs and drug pricing first, Medicare for All would be unattainable.

Under the circumstances, this endorsement for Joe is very telling. And, of course, Governor Shumlin is correct: this is the most consequential election of our lifetime. We must choose the best qualified candidate who can beat the living daylights out of Trump.

And that candidate, the one with the broadest reach and appeal, is:

Joe Biden.
