One more thing about Chuck’s hand-off to Ari. What impressed Chuck, and me, was her talk about the “Green New Deal” she introduced. She pointed out it’s a resolution, not a bill. It’s a plan for a plan. And the plan is that, by 2020, there will be a go-forward green energy strategy on which Dems can run.
The impressive part is that she’s also a long, term thinker! I’ve been advocating the same approach to health care. I don’t know whether Medicare for all, or single payer, or a hybrid with insurance providers is the best solution. Dems have about 18 months to come-up with a solution that we can run on as a party in 2020.
The message: we’ve already done the studying. Elect us in 2020 and we’re ready to move out.
