Too bad so many Sanders supporters sat out the last election and allowed trump to be elected.

On the other hand, Sanders has been in Washington almost 30 years, why hasn't he been able to convince his colleagues to pass his proposals in all that time? Remember, Representatives and Senators introduce legislation and get it passed, Presidents don't.

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