12. What accomplishments has she made for her constituents?

I fail to understand all the fuss being made over her. What accomplishments has she made for her constituents? Based on her continual media appearances and nonstop travel with Bernie, it's obvious that she's not at home doing the work she was elected to do.

Contrast her accomplishments with those of someone like Sharice Davids. She's someone who doesn't seek a national spotlight and she's not flying around the country making personal appearances on behalf of a primary candidate... instead, she's doing the hard work that her constituents elected her to do.

I'm much more impressed with Sharice Davids... no hype, just work, just success.

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