I've followed him on twitter for a couple years--and he's one of the few politicians I do follow on twitter--but I had the mistaken belief that he was a fairly milquetoast politician. Turns out I was wrong. He was one of the few people in the race who consistently addressed poverty and homelessness and trans rights--and the things he, Beto, and Sen Harris have said and done re: immigration are absolutely top drawer.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
