https://www.politico.com/news/2020/02/02/bernie-sanders-climate-federal-electricity-production-110117I think stuff like this begs the question, does Bernie stay in ideologue mode or is he able to compromise with other stakeholders and other viewpoints in an effort to be more consequentialist.

He is talking about a level of regulation that prescribes limited solutions and an aggressive, ymmv, timescale.

If they’re polling higher than others on the debate stage they should be in the debates.the dnc eliminated donor requirements for the pre-nevada debate, clearing the way for bloomberg to participate if he meets the polling or delegate requirements.warren just tweeted out whining about billionaires participating, but she earlier sent people to lobby the dnc for the requirements to be set so that bloomberg would qualify.I guess it's possible the allied group decided to take action without directly consulting with Warren or her campaign team.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/john-kerry-overheard-discussing-possible-2020-bid-amid-concern-sanders-n1128476Biden will most certainly have almost immediate and well deserved investigations launched on him if he’s elected. At least if the Pubs hold the Senate. Bernie is going to channel his inner Stalin with executive orders. The only plausible choice is Bloomberg.

I don't see an investigation on the president as a bad thing. Hopefully Biden cooperates.
That’s crazy that so much goes into this democrat iowa thing when the whole state’s going to go for trump in 10 months.
