12. I think running for president

Jan 2020

can have long term effects on people. It is like an addiction and I don't think Sanders ever recovered from his loss in 2016. There was a time when I believe he ran because of his ideals. Now it appears to have become an obsession, one that not only could affect him negatively, it could have long range repercussions for the party.

This kind of destructive in-fighting is exactly what republicans love to see. Voters, not so much.

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