Sanders-Warren? OK, Bernie I can understand, but who looked up at Fauxahontas as a progressive leader?

Plus, I thought AOC and the Goon Squad were the Progressive leaders of tomorrow?

Problem is, Leftist leadership becomes more and more infantile with each generation.

Younger political leaders? Good luck with that, the baby boomer generation is only going to vacate the halls of power when they are carried off to the morgue. I can’t think of another era in political history where so many octogenarians sit at the every level of the pollical structure.

Well that would depend on what they really mean by younger. ....60 would seem younger to the many in congess in their 80’s and upper 70’s....and there’s a lot of them.

They’ve left the next generation a stinking pile of garbage policies. Where is a new generation supposed to start? What is their message going to be? That kids can “transition” genders? That uncontrolled immigration is a good thing? That we should defund the police? Killing babies a day before birth is virtuous? Paying the homeless helps with the problem?

They’re all non-starters.

There was considerable sadness on some leftist blogs because AOC was not eligible to run for president in 2020 (she was too young). But she will be 35 before Election Day in 2024.

So she’s good to go.

Aw, heck, Bernie and Liawatha have another twenty good years in them, easy. It doesn’t take brains to be a proggie, just passion and a little degeneracy, and you can’t swing a dead cat on most campuses or the streets of Portland without smacking one.

The problem isn't just 'new people'... Bernie Sanders can hold his own with any 40 year old even now.

The problem is the ideas are old - most go back over a hundred years to a young Marx who hadn't been disproved by hundreds of failed 'experiments' the world over.

And the WOKE stuff? Those are tactics for control -NOT 'new ideas'.

Face it - everywhere communism's been tried, it's failed. (And no, Sweden is NOT a communist country.)

There are other paths to a better world - lots of 'em. But the worn path to Cuban style misery is dreadful and too well known to fool enough people to vote for it. Give it up progressives - find something people WANT to get behind - not something they have to be tricked, manipulated, and lied into.
