He was never going to abolish ICE or the police. Bernie fans still need to detangle from him because he is flat out too old to build a sustaining movement around.

People know who Bernie is and what his general message is. That's important. and also Finicums Wake posted:we know he's a left liberal he's just the least worst option find me a more pure leftist willing to run for President and I'll happily get behind them

He didn't say no, but he didn't say yes. It's only a hard no if you believe abolishing the current incarnation of ICE is irrational, or if you believe he believes such a thing.

I want a firebrand, not someone who looks like he got lost on the way from the 2004 Dem primary

She actually does want to abolish ICE, is a firebarnd, and is probably going to be free for 2020 because the NY Dem Machine is never going to let her beat Cuomo.

Centrist liberal: Why must we hold our politicians to a higher standard? Also Centeist liberal: we must hold bernie to a higher standard! It is extremely bad Bernie didn't call for destruction of ICE.

I would be hella stoked to vote for Nixon for President but I'm concerned about splitting the vote in the primary (an issue the centrists absolutely will have to deal with -- so let's not nullify that gap in their armor by adding that weakness to our side) I'm also not sure she has enough political experience to have nearly the same size of network of actually-leftist people she can call on to staff the government. But if Bernie declines to run and throws his support and infrastructure behind Nixon I'm totally down for it.

And keep in mind that Sanders` starting point was representing Vermont, so he didn't have a wide national network, either. Also, she is being endorsed by the NY Our Revolution. What is his network of potential position-holders, by the way?

And keep in mind that Sanders` starting point was representing Vermont, so he didn't have a wide national network, either. Also, she is being endorsed by the NY Our Revolution. Bernie's "starting point" was years in Congress, which means he's met lots of people in DC and would be able to quickly reach out to the ones he thinks are good, and they can in turn reach out to the people they know who they think are good. This network also grew substantially when he ran in 2015-16 and built a campaign from basically toothpicks and tape -- same effect we saw in 2008 when Obama's campaign led to a growing tree of successors throughout the government (though, obviously, most of them ended up sucking because they were lanyards and liberals). Bernie's campaign also led to Our Revolution, DSA, and Justice Dems popping up and gathering up supporters and candidates, along with people who aren't actively running but still providing expertise and advice. Not being a lanyard, I can't give you a specific list but it should be fairly clear that Bernie is way more politically connected than Nixon is, at least as of right now, right?
