    Bernie Sanders is an Independent, he runs in the Democratic primaries for the Democratic Presidential nomination but he sits in Congress as an Independent.

          I mean they have to be good enough to win right? And Bernie can’t, he’s proven he can’t win. So what’s the point of him but words?

          In any case Bernie is old as shit, that’s why I don’t want him. I honestly laugh at the hypocrisy of his supporters calling out the age of Biden, Trump, Pelosi and McConnell, while asking for Bernie.

            You misunderstand. Nobody would be good enough for YOU. You will find something else to be angry over and will project it there.

              Yeah none of the current political leaders are good enough, you’re right. Sorry you have such low standards

                I’m realistic and understand that perfection is the enemy of good enough. I can want better people with all my might but it won’t change reality.
