(14,680 posts)This is such a disengenuous comment. Implying Sanders, and only Sanders, whole reason for running or even simply working on his job, sponsoring bills etc...means he is a megalomaniac attention seeker.
If you say that about Sanders, then it also applies to every other politician or civil rights leader throughout history. I mean, MLK should have just sat back and not been so arrogant and bold to think of himself as some kind of spokesperson for Black America right?
Ghandi should have also put himself out there, look at how popular he became from all that! Both of these men had movies made of their lives! What a pay off!
By your logic, even Kamala Harris should have just quietly gone about her business as a Senator, but no, its "all about" Harris. She actually believes, as Sanders does, that she has something to offer to the American people as a leader and through the policies she stands for. Shocking! What an attention seeker.
