BOTH get less than two old white men and one of the old white men has more radical and much less thought-out policies, I think that it is not only "policies" at work here.

But please go ahead and believe what you want! You certainly have that right.

It’s very telling that’s all you think they bring to the table.

comments about old white men is ageist which is just as wrong as sexism. I would also remind you that Warren is 70..not exactly young.

11. Medicare 4 All that abolishes private insurance is not a popular stance
Tue Aug 27, 2019, 01:10 PM
Aug 2019

There was polling released in the last few days that showed only something like 25% of Democrats favor abolishing private health insurance in favor of a Medicare 4 All plan.

Majority of people favor a public option and the ability to keep their current insurance if they like it.
