5. Sanders Has No Voice In The Senate, Ma'am

A man who will not compromise cannot have a voice there.

A vote he has, and hopefully he will be present to cast it when the work of hammering out something that can pass the Senate and meet Speaker Pelosi's approval is done.

"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

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