#BernieSanders should have retired long ago, and not run for re-election the last time he did. #Vermont has a serious problem with its political pipeline, and we need to solve this faster than ever.
#BeccaBalint can replace Bernie, but someone has to replace her, and someone else needs to replace #PeterWelch, before long. #VTDems #VTProgressives need to get their acts together in a hurry. #VTpol
The pipeline is so thin and empty in #VT that two candidates who have never held elected office are the front runners to challenge #PhilScott for Governor, this year, AGAIN.
This is politically unacceptable. We should not and cannot have people who have never been elected to even a minor municipal office presuming to run for the highest executive office in the state.
Good governance is a serious endeavor and requires people with vision, values, and professional expertise in public service.
