Would any other candidate other than Biden won this year?

39. I am saddened by this too. But consider, in red Florida, they passed a $15.00 minimum wage.

I think we have Sanders to thank for this. He put it out there. Yes Democrats had talked about it for years, but Sanders gave it a great deal of publicity. We have always won in the middle in regards to the presidency. But the progressive ideas are popular and will gain even more traction in the years to come. Look at the ACA, the idea that health care is a right came out of that legislation. And the GOP will not be able to kill it regardless of the courts because it is now a voting issue.
