Nope, Doc, this is the best slate of Democratic candidates in my lifetime. All of the abovementioned candidates, have a real progressive belief system and advocate for progressive policies. That order btw is my current order of preference.
"progressive belief system"- Now THAT is the most absurd thing you have ever posted here.

Universal Healthcare, Free or low-cost college tuition, a progressive tax system, green energy and so on. Oh, and I almost forgot no more socialism for large corporations and billionaires. New York dodged a bullet when that Amazon deal was cancled.
Mark has scored a trifecta- three idiotic postings about something he obviously knows nothing about in one day.

Doc, don't tell me you're a conservative socialist? You want to give the wealthiest Corporations and Billionaires free handouts?
What bullet did NYC dodge?
What bullet did NYC dodge ?
According to a writer for Forbes: "From a purely economic point of view, Amazon was expected to generate $27.5 billion in tax revenue over a 25-year period, 9x the $3 billion government incentives offered. Anyone arguing that $3 billion was an overly excessive offer accidentally chased out $24.5 billion from the city. And that is just the first-order effect.
"If New York City had opened its arms to Amazon, the city would have been rewarded with product, labor and capital benefits."
Oh and there's this: "New York City voters approve 57 - 26%, including 60 - 26% among Queens voters, 'of Amazon locating one of its new headquarters in Long Island City in Queens,' according to a Quinnipiac University Poll released today (15 February - DD)."
So the Big Apple's leadership i. dodged the impact of billions of extra dollars and ii. avoided accomplishing something of which the citizens approved. Not a bad day for the city's political leaders.

Sanders vs Trump--a bad hair field day for political cartoonists. LOL.
