Without hindsight: Sanders. His 2016 campaign connected with me like nothing else in national politics ever has.
With hindsight: I'm more skeptical of Sanders after his second presidential campaign. He left many of his best instincts at the wayside and aligned his campaign with people in whom I have little trust.
If the point was to hand things off to the next generation, fair enough, but you can count me out.
Despite that, we know that Hillary lost. Better to roll the dice on a chance to
stay out the Trumps than to accept that outcome as an inevitability.
