I don’t think he has a huge base of people asking him to run for president again. Even being a Bernie bro, I know his chance for that passed back in 2020. Hopefully, we as a society will be ready for the next person who takes up the fight.

Between the two, I like Sanders more…but I want to see AOC on the ballot, not him. And I won’t pretend it’s not ageism - I am so tired of old people running the country.

If AOC was president, Sanders would surely get an important role and continue to do great work. The presidency is a LOT of work, it ages you fast.

I agree. I think the AOC/Trump split ticket proves she has more appeal than we thought. Or at least more than I thought. I suppose I shouldn’t underestimate the power of the change candidate when the system is this broken.
