MODERATORS
A good leader is a leader for all. In these divisive times, that's probably impossible. And certainly the a Democrat candidate should have somewhat progressive ideals. Or at least not regressive. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying this guy is a good leader or a good Democrat. Probably not. I just think the U.S. has been so starved of good leaders, the electorate wouldn't recognize one.
No, we just have far the many that are completely guided by their donations. The electorate can usually recognize them, if they even hear about them, which is getting harder given the sheer amount of money flowing around that doesn't like progressive candidates. Honestly, a good example to see it is probably the Michigan Senate primary, where Abdul El-Sayed is running against Haley Stevens, and Abdul (the very much more progressive candidate) is hopefully gonna win (wild amounts of money are being spent on Stevens, like at least 10 mil on ads thus far). The electorate isn't completely dumb, they just often have the wool pulled over their eyes by moneyed interest groups, which is why I'm always annoyed by candidates who clearly don't have central beliefs and can change their views to suit whatever they need, usually to the ones where they can get the most donations for their campaign.
