Fred Davis I cannot imagine who you are. Posting the same lie(s) over and over and over about Sen. Sanders, even as he continues to work for All of Us. Just ONE example to remind you. He's fought for YEARS for a $15 fed minimum wage, starting with 5 co-sponsors, then up to 22, then to 30 with his 2019 bill, which passed the U.S. House this summer. A major step forward. But, of course, it's stalled in the Senate--where so much good is killed--because Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) won't release it for a Senate vote. Labor productivity has more than doubled since the 60s, but the minimum wage remains the $7.25 it was when first passed in 2007. Its purchasing power has significantly declined, and Bernie rightly calls it "a starvation wage." He calls for "a living wage"...hardly nothing.

@nomatters4481 Really Nice to see your comment 1st thing!! Still, Warren has to keep declining, too. And, Biden now has gone back on his word and will have tons of Super Pac money from the have's who don't want Bernie's reforms. But, Bernie is a force of nature...and so are we! One step, one rally. one post, one call, one $ at a time! 10/31/19

@ursamagickmt672 Clever! And, he sure does...consistent ever since I saw his photo for the 1st time, in a Chicago newspaper in 1963, being dragged off to jail for protesting school segregation. A 2nd photo at the time showed him ankle-chained to another protestor, a black female, who was on the ground...where he was headed. #NotMe.Us
