my view on him would be different. however, it's not my dislike for sanders that stands in my way, it is my belief backed up my multiple data points this election cycle, that the country does not want a sanders style socialist democracy. at best we want incremental changes made. so if ellison truly buys in to the sanders vision, in my estimation he is reading this election wrong, and therefore will not help us move forward in 2018 and 2020.
