Here is a short piece from Powerline about Bernie -- and how weird it is that this guy (of all guys) has emerged as the
voice of sanity in the Democratic Party. It's not clear who this says more about -- Bernie or every other Dem?
"
Bernie to Run as a Straight White Male"
I am so looking forward to the Democrats’ 2020 demolition derby at the four-way intersectionality of Identity Politics Boulevard and Oppression Road. Even more so now that Bernie Sanders is
in. No surprise there. What is amusing is that Bernie looks to be running as a straight white male. Get a load of
this exchange:
When asked by VPR’s Bob Kinzel about concerns that he no longer best represents “the face of the new Democratic Party,” Sanders, 77, said:
“We have got to look at candidates, you know, not by the color of their skin, not by their sexual orientation or their gender and not by their age,” Sanders said. “I mean, I think we have got to try to move us toward a non-discriminatory society which looks at people based on their abilities, based on what they stand for.”
Those is fightin’ words for the left. Bernie is going to end up road kill in the middle of the left’s four-way intersectionality. Especially if anyone has to wit to dredge up his
old remarks on immigration and open borders:
“Open borders?” he interjected. “No, that’s a Koch brothers proposal.”
