Re: Demcratic Challengers 11: Saving the Republic one voter at a time!
To quote a famous presidential candidate and U.S. Senator, "Vote your conscience."
In all seriousness, Sanders will achieve around the same domestically as any other Democratic nominee, which will be constrained by which party controls the Congressional branches, and to a lesser extent for actual law-making, the Supreme Court. Where the candidate will shine is his/her foreign policy, which I admit to never knowing enough about. Both Biden and Sanders have that experience, but Biden more so. IMO, if you believe that young people and POC under 35-45 are going to turn out in record numbers for Sanders, powering him to grassroots victories in states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and somewhere like a North Carolina, then vote for Sanders. If you think that suburban women, who voted for "moderate" Republican candidates in the past, but found Trump's disgusting behavior a bridge too far and therefore voted 'D' in 2018, but who may also feel overwhelmed by a Sanders presidency, are the key to retaking the White House, then vote for Biden, as they could help carry a North Carolina, Arizona, or Florida over the finish line for Democrats.
