I get it....I've been raised & I hold certain beliefs. I've grown and evolved over the years, but the principles that my beliefs are based on are strong. However with all that said, I can see and understand why others would gravitate towards other belief systems.
Limiting this conversation to politics, I can see why someone would gravitate towards certain individuals with their politics. Obama was one that I know many who gravitated towards him and his politics. Or going back several decades, Kennedy. Same deal.
But for Sanders & Warren....I don't get it. I don't get why someone would want Socialism. I remember the debates in college, the courses in political science. I remember the lessons, but I don't get why. To combat inequality? Socialism didn't do that.....see every example in history. As for being drawn by the candidates themselves....at least Kennedy & Obama were charismatic. Neither Sanders nor Warren strike me as such.
