        Yes, and I voted for Bernie when he ran and I would absolutely vote for AOC if/when she does run. Just… the choices in this election cycle are wanna-be, half-demented dictator-for-life vs a “moderate” Democrat who, while he’s gotten a surprising amount done, isn’t exactly renowned for pushing the corporations hard on climate change.

          Honestly, the stuff he’s gotten done over his career has been life changing for me. I hate that I have to give him credit for legalizing cannabis, but here we are.

      You don’t like deciding which person who will be the oldest president we’ve ever had for president is interesting?

        Yeah, it’s a pretty frustrating time to be leaning left. And given the chaos Trump would unleash, it’s not like there is any choice at all about whether or not to vote for Biden… 😿
