Bernie Sanders Praises Biden's New Healthcare And Education Proposals

From the article:

In an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, Sanders applauded Biden’s plan to lower the Medicare eligibility age to 60 and make public college tuition-free for those making less than $125,000 a year.
“The vice president is listening to many of the concerns that low-income and working people and young people have and beginning to move in their direction,” Sanders said.

Still, the proof is in the pudding, and he has a long way to go towards showing he can be trusted to not make trouble, and to pull in harness with the Party during the convention and the general election.

"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

And in my view, Sanders is intelligent enough to do exactly as you stated.

I just like to see genuine coin of the realm, something that gives the feel of real gold to a tooth....

Both tuition free education and cancelling student debt (at least for public education) was supposedly a very important issue for BS supporters and we'll see whether they meant it.

While BS' acknowledgment is a good sign, maybe he could tell his staff to stop trashing Biden and the Democratic Party. That would really help as well.

Emotional and logical attachments aside, Sanders has an obligation to work to defeat Trump.
