that she is not a socialist of any sort.

Just because someone conjures up a model in their head and think America could be just like it, doesn't mean it is correct.

Sanders and AOC are wrongly misguided about this. People from all walks of life question the viability of their views and I am one of them.

If someone wants to blindly follow an idol based on faith, it is their right and I can't stop them.

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

Except, the initial spin by Bernie supporters was that he converted a Fox/conservative audience Skya Rhen Apr 2019 #50
If you are right on 30% of the audience being conservative it's really not preaching Autumn Apr 2019 #51
70% of verry motived people cheering can certainly make it look as though everyone agreed with ehrnst Apr 2019 #54
