I don't know, I thought the same thing about Bernie in 2020 but everyone went Biden instead. I hope this goes well and is replicated across the nation, but then I remember that "do good for everyone" isn't a common goal.

That’s just an election though. I’m talking about building a movement. This is how it happens. Bernie was obviously the correct choice in terms of the two seconds it takes to vote, just like Biden and Harris were in the generals following, but the movement is built on the excitement of breaking out of the apathy of normal corporate politics.

I’m just saying take a look at what happens when someone who actually represents the interests of the people puts together a real movement based campaign. It breaks apathy.
