I agree totally with your assessment of Bernie. He had his one chance at president because the DNC and others mistakenly cleared the field of good, alternate primary candidates to Hillary. Bernie stepped in a vacuum and certainly provided a useful anti-Clinton voice. But those days and climate are passed. Bernie, though somewhat likeable, is old. I am old,too, 74, and I don’t want another old president. I want youth and vitality as we find in almost all the candidates except for another ego waiting in the wings, Joe Biden. Bernie is a gad fly and I am glad he is pushing a politically impossible agenda. But, others like Cory Booker who has actually done things and is not a grump and who speaks about what this country need--love—have possible progressive goals, as do almost all the others. Go home Bernie to your wealth and all your houses.
