I'm a supporter of Sanders and I think he should be in DC right now. He's the best public interest advocate I've ever seen and I think he should drop everything, go to DC and act as a brake on the $Trillion+ giveaway to corporate interests and political megadonors being planned at this very moment by the Trump administration.

I want him there now, what I'm objecting to is the personal, ad-hominem attacks. We're at a pivotal moment in history, let's look at facts stop grinding personal axes.

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