I favor many socialist ideas, but I'm also a realist. B

BS is simply not the person to have progressive ideas become reality. BS simply lacks the skills to do so.

He's been mouthing these ideas for decades but never been able to get anything done.

Senator Warren in her relatively brief career has accomplished more that BS has in decades.

BS is just not effective at working with others, a skill you need to make change happen. Senator Warren has these skills.

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