    There should be nothing normal about an 84 year old man serving in congress. But it is normal.

    In the world we live in, Sanders should be there.

      You need to be the change you want though. Being yet another octogenarian in Congress isn’t helping.

        Sanders wants the same change everyone wants; the problem is that half the country is too stupid to realize it.

        Just ask any Republican. They want the same shit everyone else wants: a lower cost of living, and a better way of life. Yet they actively continue to vote for the party that goes against their interests. Usually because of single issues like abortion or guns. Or they just like Trump because he speaks like them, while completely ignoring all the terrible, horrible things he’s done to screw over his base. It’s absolutely maddening.
