I am disappointed but not surprised by Obama’s suggestion that Dems swim in the middle lane. While I have the utmost respect for him, it was this tendency that was limited the greater success of his presidency, IMO. #Warren2020

@BrianLehrer I would agree. Most people are behind @JoeBiden because they are incredibly scared of a second trump term. All of the progressive issues, when polled, the majority of the public are behind. @BernieSanders 2016 platform overlapped w/the tea party on five key issues.
