Feb 2020

I've gone door to door, phone banked, did voter registration, acted as a candidate rep, donated to Dems, voted for decades, organized fund raisers, set up & cleaned up after Human Rights dinners.

What I am is establishment.
What I am not is a big money in a nice office in a very nice suit person who will ever demand laws set for my only interests.

"The Democratic Establishment" is a canard, that has gained traction through disdainful repetitions.

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