is Bernie. All these years in the corridors of power and he has not grown a bit.

Warmed over '60s slogans and 30 years on the hill with 2 renamed post offices to his credit. Now his 2020 campaign is warmed over 2016.

Warren got more done on legislation before she was elected than Bernie has in 30 years. I still think she's better in the Senate than the White House, but if she gets in the WH-- watch out!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
