5. Senator Sanders, aka, "Bernie" is certainly the person to get climate change on track.

The policies he endorsed in Vermont led the State from being the only one in the country that didn't depend on dangerous fossil fuels for electricity to one that does depend on them.

An endorsement from an academic economist who may himself be a fool, at least when discussing the engineering task of climate change, does not imply that Senator Sanders is not a fool.

The track Climate Change is on is precisely the track Sanders endorses.

Sachs is supposed to be an anti-poverty advocate, but I'm not impressed by what I have learned of him. I certainly don't think that he understands, in particular, the relationship between energy and poverty. In fact, if he is endorsing Sanders, it's further evidence that in fact, he doesn't understand this relationship.

From my perspective, Senator Sanders is the most foolish of all candidates in the Democratic Primaries and who notably is not a Democrat. It's unsurprising that fools gravitate toward him.

In these Primaries, I'm ABB, anybody but Bernie, and the only way I'd vote for such a fool is that he is opposed by a worse fool. Of course, Donald Trump is the worst fool on the national stage, although people like the racist pig Lindsay Graham roughly approximate him, but I am really hoping for a person to be our nominee who is not a fool.

With the exception of Gabbard, every other Democratic candidate is less of a fool than Sanders.
