Isn't that what people said last time? And then he pulled a mini-Nader and the enthusiasm gap helped push us into Trump country. And FWIW, he already did push the candidates leftward. Now Medicare for all is the gospel of party hopefuls; Warren is proposing universal free childcare, too. I can't wait to see what reasons bros come up for this time as to why the likes of Warren and Harris are too impure to consider as "true" progressives. I wish Sanders had decided to sit this one out.The real reason he is running will be to move the other candidates to the left a little bit to court his base.
