Sanders being the left-wing mirror world reflection of Goldwater, with someone like AOC being the future anti-Reagan, is quite a hopeful vision. Since I feed on optimism, I can get behind that.

It's still a long shot, but I always think what if? What if 2028 will mark the end of the era of socialism for the rich, and capitalism for the poor?

Before anyone interjects

The anti-Reagan doesn't have to be AOC necessarily, it could be El-Sayed or even Hasan Piker for all I care. But Sanders' Fight Oligarchy tour with AOC is something akin to a preparation for him to pass the torch.

And Angie Nixon being the anti-Nixon
