2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Bernie has NO detailed plans! Grand ideas but no substance. [View all]ljm2002
(10,751 posts)...by waving her own magic wand?
Just because she has more staff to write denser verbiage, does NOT mean she has any better PLAN to push her agenda through Congress. In fact, with far less experience in Congress than Bernie has (and he has served in BOTH houses of Congress), I believe she has less chance to succeed in that area than he does.
But of course none of us can know. Whoever is the President, and we can only fervently hope it is a Democrat, will have a hell of a tough row to hoe when the time comes. In the meantime, we are choosing from among our Democratic field. I choose to go with the person who has maintained the most consistent progressive record, AND who has a proven record of accomplishment. I do acknowledge that ALL of our Democratic candidates have proven records BTW. However, her positions are often to the right of mine, especially in matters of foreign policy and economics. So I'll go for Bernie.
