If the man doesn't understand democracy, he should not hold office.

What does AOC or Bernie think about him? I bet they love him. I haven't heard anything from Biden or Obama, did they say anything bad about him?

The guy hasn't been in office for over 15 years, why should I give af what he thinks?

It’s a good way to point out that the Democrat establishment hasn’t given a shit about the will of the people for at least 15 years then.

People when they're interested in building something good together: I think your solution may cause problems down the line due to XYZ. See my alternative implementation here. My main worry is technical debt when we need to update ABC to the new standards. Here's a list of references and further alternatives. Thoughts?

People who make it far in politics: I thank you for your work but I'm not sure if it's what we need. We should try looking at other solutions. Your points are all valid and your implementation seems fine but it just doesn't seem like a good fit. I think we should get more opinions. I just don't like this idea.
