Bernie Sanders May Not Seek Another Term

The Vermont independent noted he'll be 89 at the end of his upcoming Senate term: "You can do the figuring."

Still sharp as a tack (for REAL sharp as a tack) at 83 years old.

My authentic science based view (as an atmospheric scientist) on the current climate OPTIMUM FOR LIFE couldn't disagree more with his fake climate crisis political views using disinformation and junk science. He has been sucked in based on his sincere desire to help people and help the planet but being ignorant on climate science.

This massively greening planet was rescued from dangerously low levels of the beneficial gas, CO2 over a century ago! At the current level of 426 parts per million, the level of CO2 in the air is still less than half the optimal level for life(~900 ppm).

However, I've come to love this guy in recent years.

His solidly authentic views as a Jewish man about the genocide in Gaza are 1 reason. His informative and authoritative stances on human rights issues are 2nd to nobody. 


I completely agree with everything he states about health care(Medicare for ALL). And he communicates it so eloquently/effectively!!!

We will miss him when he retires. There will NEVER be another Bernie! His wonderful personality and legacy belongs in the hall of fame for politics. 

Great ethics?............ok, maybe he does take massive lobby bribes but I still admire the last 2 positions mentioned above.

Bernie Sanders            Senator (I - VT)

Bernie Sanders Proposes Taxing Income Over $1 Billion At 100% And Urges It's Time To Make 'Greedy Billionaires' Pay Their Fair Share

This has 0% chance of passing or even getting traction and is grandstanding, wasting his time except to appeal to his  far left base.
