President Biden is backing Vice President Kamala Harris to take the Democratic presidential nomination, he announced Sunday. She's taken more liberal positions on health care.
Harris’s healthcare plans were less liberal in the economic sense of the word, as it’d involve more government control. But they were more progressive or socialist (like Medicare, social security, etc all of which are somewhat socialist as the name social security implies). Not quite as much as Sander’s though, who was pushing a true single payer system. More than just a public option though. I am really interested how much she sticks with the current plans or stakes out her own policies. Somewhat encouraged that many dems from the progressive caucus quickly endorsed her.
Yeah that’s pretty much it, I agree with you.
