Hello moon,
I would have preferred Sanders. He was my first choice.
I had to give up on Sanders because his campaign was unable to convince enough voters to support him. If he had just barely won he would have been powerless with two parties against him. He would have been a guaranteed one-term president, essentially a lame duck for his entire presidency.
The only way we could have gone with Sanders would have been if America had an awakening and he had a landslide win and big majority following. That would have been the best thing for America, I believe. Maybe we can still build that. We have to try.
But we have to face current reality. We are a divided nation. We have half the country does not even believe the news. They prefer to believe in made-up baloney, and we can't tell them any different. We have to deal with that before we can have anybody like Sanders.
Corporate America likes to keep us divided so they can conquer us financially, keep people poor and in debt, unable to save.
The corporate oligarchs like being in the power position. They are afraid of general prosperity, afraid if people become more comfortable and aware, that they will vote for things that make it tougher for the super-rich to dominate and corrupt government.
I can't even get many people interested in the badly needed American Anti-Corruption Act.

Yes, I can see your viewpoint and it's valid. However, I'm one of those people that puts morality before power. My vote would have gone to Sanders as a vote for a moral America- even if I'd have accepted that he couldn't win for the reasons you've stated. Maybe there would have been a surging emergence of hitherto non-voting Americans if a moral figurehead had been offered. We'll never know. You got the establishment choice- better than Trump, of course. We'll see where Harris can steer it.

Fauci said we are likely to see a surge on top of a surge.
If 165,000 new cases a day is the 'calm before the storm' it's going to be a helluva storm.

5 million cases, 331 million people.
5/331 = .015.
.015 x 100% = 1.5%
Only 1.5% of America has this disease. We are nowhere near herd immunity, and already the hospitals are starting to reach capacity.
That's the problem.
That's why everybody needs to take this seriously and do everything possible to reduce the possibility of transmission.
Distancing is the number one best tool.
And when that is not possible, masks.
