Given that every candidate is probably going to push M4A in some form, I would like to see at least ONE have candidate have somewhat of a coherent disability policy. There's a lot of cripples who are nervous about M4A since the Sanders bill completely ignores stuff currently covered by Medicaid waivers like personal care (especially in "good" States like NY and CA).

Republicans idea right until Obama embraced it. Had Obama gone hard for Medicare for All, then the Republicans might have offered the ACA as their alternative, but embracing ACA in hope that the Republicans will go along doesn't work because it robs them of a political win. If the scary Black Socialist President offers a moderate solution, then it's no longer a moderate solution politically.

Let the Republicans be the ones to offer compromise, Democrats need to stop negotiating with themselves. Part of the issue is many people don't understand that under Medicare you still need Supplemental or Advantage to cover the other 20% Medicare doesn't cover. And you pay a premium for both coverages. Put everyone under Medicare then give private options for the other 20% (Supplemental, Advantage, Medicaid). Taxes cover the 80%, individuals cover the 20%.

So he's believes in science and is pro something that's basically completely settled. He's also for cutting Social Security and Medicare, are there really democrats for that? I agree he's a threat if he goes populist like Trump, but with that platform? If you're right, AOC will be the nominee in 2024.
