He’s also way to sympathetic to Israel. I love Bernie but I dont trust him in any fight to root out AIPAC. When he said publicly that “the word genocide made him queesy”, that was the end for his role when it came to dealing with Israeli influence in our government. You cant walk something like that back as a leader.
I thought “he looks like he’s about to die” 15 years ago. As far as I can tell, he hasn’t changed, so I can’t in good conscience look at Donald Trump and the McConnell meat puppet and tell Bernie he’s not good enough.
I agree on the authenticity part. I don’t think it should just be someone younger just because they are younger. They should also be progressive, authentic, and willing to put in the work. But I do think it’s important to engage younger voters as well. Also in terms of long term strategy and collaboration, how much of a set back could Bernie passing away do?
Don’t get me wrong y’all, I love Bernie, but I think he’s just too old. We need to transition to the newer generation.

Age is age, I’d rather an authentic person over a younger actor
I’d rather we not rely on identity politics as a proxy for the real issues at all. People can come and go, causes do not.
