This is the classic issue with the dems over the past what? 20? 30 years? We’re arguing on Yang vs Bern as a case of better vs best (You decide who’s who) instead of rallying behind one candidate who will, even if not being a person personnel option A, “better” than an “R” or fucking Tulsi Gabbard.

Yeah Yang is great but he doesn’t have the visibility of Bern or Warren right now - why not make sure SOMEONE from D wins in 2020 and then figure out how to push for Yang for 2024 Jesus this isn’t that hard to figure out. Or is it?

I think it is that hard. Dems are cats, GOP are dogs, it seems.

Like I said, any one of the candidates that were in that last debate are swell with me. My least favored is probably Biden, but whatever, he has my vote.

I actually wish Klobuchar was polling better. She seems a very worthy candidate.

I think it becomes less hard when we acknowledge the behavior and recognize it as self defeating in the attempt to build and progress a better society (better how amirite).
