I didn't say to vote for her. Only to listen to her.

As Ponietz says...

"We get nowhere if we marginalize her message; worse, we lose voters."

Perfect response.

She's too woo-woo and I disagree with her critique of secularization, but I've always appreciated her stance on reparations--and she may not be as nutty as I had thought.

I'd never vote for her but I think it's great she is running. Her voice needs to be heard. She is as Anti-Trump as you get.

Love vs. Hate

Woo-woo yes. But, she is a needed voice today. Love needs a lift.

We've lost our soul as a nation and she is a beacon in the right direction.

What I heard her say at the debates was mostly put downs of democrats without offering any solutions or plans.

Yes, it's refreshing she's different in her approach, but I'm over it. Hopefully she won't be in the next debates.
