It’s fucked up but that’s the truth. No one ever claims they’re going too far right.

But when people hear that their good healthcare will be taken away for some unknown, that we want to decriminalize the border, let prisoners vote and things like that, it scares the shit out of them. You have to get people to these places incrementally. This isn’t a big radical change election, this is a return to normality election.

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

NEW POLL: Biden's health care proposal more popular than Medicare for All Gothmog Sep 2019 #19

And why I wouldn't support Biden in the primary. mwooldri Sep 2019 #21

Medicare does't cover a lot of treatments and Docs are paid a misderably low rate. napi21 Sep 2019 #28

MFA covers more than today's Medicare coverage, and candidates HAVE elaborated on it. thesquanderer Sep 2019 #34
