    LOL. we already had one. Bernie lost… twice I might add. I hope another person like Bernie runs after Biden’s, or Trump’s :(, 2nd term because even Bernie himself helped talk about things Democrats didn’t talk about (healthcare for all for instance).

      You are missing the entire point…

      You’re doing exactly what you accuse the other side of doing while accepting the 1%'s bullshit argument that there is literally no hope of actual change.

      Next 4 years, Next 4 years, Next 4 years, almost there guys don’t worry about it.

      Picking the better of 2 evils is not democracy.

        From your(and my) perspective it’s the better of two evils, there are plenty of average democrats that chose Biden on the merits.

          I’ve literally never met anyone in real life who actually supports Biden, I’m not saying they don’t exist, just that he doesn’t exactly get people excited to vote, it’s literally just “not Trump”

            Yet he got more votes than Bernie. So people definitely like Biden more.

                  Yes, they actively promoted vote counts including super delegates from day 1 in 2016. In no way was that primary fair. This included the actual vote manipulation in Navada.

        Lol there is hope for change. 4 and 8 years ago, Bernie could have been a candidate. There wasn’t enough people that voted for him in either election, so Hilary and Biden took it. Now, you do need to wait 4 years because Biden is the incumbent, who historically have a good chance at winning. In 4 years, if people want progressive candidate, vote canvas and donate. If not enough people do, then that obviously means not enough people want s progressive candidate.

      Bernie lost won then got told to eat a dick, and then his voters were told to eat a dick in court.

      Then democrats blamed those voters for not voting dem after telling them all to fuck the fuck off.
