would be since they were on Clinton’s team.

It’s 2019 now and we are heading into the 2020 election and Faiz Shakir is Sanders campaign manager. The first a Muslim campaign manager of a Pres campaign. He is Political Director of ACLU and was an aide to both Sen Reid and Rep Pelosi.

He is an excellent choice. Sorry to disappoint you.

A tried and true progressive who worked for Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, heads up the ACLU, and is the first Muslim-American campaign manager. Sounds fine to me.
