21. Of course I'm willing to listen... that's why I'm trying to have a civil conversation.

Bernie has long expoused the cause of civil rights for African Americans... WAY beyond prison reform.

What about the issue of income disparity?? Bernie deserves credit for leading the fight against it and other insidious forms of discrimination... for decades!!

Anyway, if I'm not welcome here to make what I thought were valid points, no problem... out of respect your forum, I will leave now.

Oh & BTW, one last thing to leave on a positive note: I would LOVE to have the opportunity to vote for Kamala for President again in 2028... she's terrific!!
