@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden should talk to Sanders as a colleague, friendly and confident.

He should explain that passing a public option will insure more people faster than Medicare 4 All.
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden He should talk about his proposal to allow people in states that did not expand Medicaid to get the public option for free.

He should explain how the ACA with a public option is similar to more countries with UHC than Medicare 4 All.
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden should address how Sanders has miseducated and misinformed voters by repeatedly conflating Medicare For All with universal health care. That this is a disservice that helped Trump undercut the ACA because he and others did not defend it.
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden He should ask why Sanders voted against expanding the ACA, does Sanders want it to fail?

He should explain that he, Biden, is never going to claim he is the "only one who" because good government requires cooperation and compromise
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden He should make it clear he has been effective, passing the very first climate change bill in Congress, that rather than talking, he does the work of finding co-sponsors, etc
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden He should say that Bernie seems not to understand that by depicting everyone who disagrees with them as corrupt, he makes it impossible for him to move legislatiion
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden should tell Bernie that leadership is not about making demands and shaming people who disagree, it is about talking to people who disagree and finding what both of you can agree on.
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden should tell Bernie it is intellectually lazy and dishonest to claim that people who disagree on policy are corrupt or bought when that disagreement is likely to be honest and rooted in different beliefs about what will work, how the market works, what can pass. etc.
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden should ask if Bernie thinks union members are corrupt, are the American voters corrupt, is every person who disagrees with Bernie corrupt?
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden should talk about his agenda, not Bernie's. He should be prepared to explain his climate change agenda which is strong and aggressive. He should explain his campaign finance agenda which has a stronger record than Bernie
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden The media has not talked about what Biden proposes because they have hung on Medicare for All which is just a slogan, it's not Medicare at all, it's single-payer rebranded - and poorly. They have talked about Bernie's ideas ad nauseum, but ignored Biden's strong agenda.
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Biden can not let Bernie get away with calling it nothing or not enough. Bernie has been dishonest about every Democrat's policies and what Democrats do his entire useless career. Make him be honest for the first time in his life about how he fails his ideas
@VirginiaBloom9 @JoeBiden Bernie has been ineffective because he does not play with other, let alone play well. He demonizes the people he needs to help him. That makes him a failure
