Bernie Not Backing Liz for VP?

[KeithD]

So, scuttlebutt is that Bernie Sanders isn't promoting Elizabeth Warren for the VP spot. Not really all that interested in promoting a progressive agenda then, is he? That would be more like Trumpism on the left--Bernie actually just promoting Bernie and using populism to do so. If the progressive agenda isn't just Bernie's agenda, he's not interested?

From your citation:

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has thus far not encouraged former Vice President Joe Biden's team to consider Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) as his running mate despite his longstanding ideological alliance with the Massachusetts senator.

Three people familiar with Sanders’s conversations with Biden, whom the Vermont lawmaker has endorsed, told The Washington Post that Sanders has declined to back some liberals’ efforts to convince the former vice president to select Warren as his No. 2.

A top spokesperson for the Sanders campaign told The Hill that the senator "and his team are not advising the Biden campaign's vice presidential selection process in any way, shape or form."

Odd that you would infer Bernie isn't backing Liz, when he is not backing anyone but waiting for Biden to show his progressive colors. Does Biden have any progressive tenancies????

Strange that you don't "seem" to know that Warren is the only one near the running other than Sanders with progressive credentials. Nice try at sliding off the issue. I guess you're suggesting the Bernie thinks he should get the VP nod.

I suggest you read your citation, it really explains it so even an Establishment Dem can understand.
