    In before “But… but… Bernie…”

    I really don’t see anyone saying this…?

    Yeah, a lot of people (myself included) feel like he was robbed of the nomination, but I haven’t really seen anyone on the left advocating he run again. The great tragedy of Sanders is that we rejected him at the perfect time for his message (and at a time when the country needed him most), and now it’s too late.

    Of course that doesn’t mean he should be ignored, it just seems like most progressives understand ee need a younger candidate with Sanders’ ideals to shape the future of the party, not Sanders himself.
