Looked back at my old choice rankings for the 2020 election primary
Warren was my top choice as of January, followed by surprisingly #Klobachar because I believed social media misinformation was the most important thing and #Warren and Klobachar had the strongest stances on it. I have Xs on #Harris ranking in Nov and Dec but shot to number 3 in Jan which I'm guessing means she announced later than everyone else. #Bernie had been number 2 but after basically calling Warren a liar and not seriously apologizing to Warren after one of his staff did a smear campaign on her, he was bumped to number 4 after Harris. #Yang had been number 3 but I guess dropped out in January. Actually Bernie was at number 5 behind a hypothetical Biden/Abrams Ticket at 4th place. In the end being in a late state I ended up voting for Bernie to give him more sway in convention. So I didn't realize just how much I favored Harris at the time. After that point I stopped keeping track and people dropped out ridiculously quickly once #Biden won SC. I'm guessing she also had some understanding of the tech problem or I wouldn't have put her in the coveted #3 spot.
Harris had not yet stepped into the race I guess at the time of filming of this video

Sanders Says 'Children and Innocent People Do Not Deserve to Be Punished for Acts of Hamas'
JAKE JOHNSON
Oct 11, 2023

..."U.S. Sen. #Bernie Sanders on Wednesday called Israel's total siege of the #Gaza Strip a breach of international law and urged the Biden administration to work with the global community to bring about an end to the escalating #violence, which has already taken a grisly toll on #civilians in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory.

"For many, it is no secret that Gaza has been an open-air prison, with millions of people struggling to secure basic necessities," Sanders (I-Vt.) said in a statement. "#Hamas' #terrorism will make it much more difficult to address that tragic reality and will embolden #extremists on both sides, continuing the cycle of violence."

The senator added that while he welcomes the Biden administration's offer of "solidarity and support to Israel" in the wake of Hamas' deadly attack, "we must also insist on restraint from Israeli forces attacking Gaza and work to secure U.N. humanitarian access."
...
Sanders said Wednesday that the focus of the international community should be on "reducing humanitarian suffering and protecting innocent people on both sides of this conflict" as Israel prepares for a ground invasion of Gaza and continues its bombing campaign, leveling entire neighborhoods and damaging schools, medical facilities, and other civilian infrastructure."...

SEN. JOE MANCHIN MAY NOT BE KINGMAKER IN WEST VIRGINIA FOR LONG
Dozens of Democratic insurgents flipped the script on the old guard of the state party.

FOR DECADES, Sen. Joe Manchin has presided over West Virginia’s Democratic Party, crowning candidates and throwing cushy appointments to allies while the state’s jobs, wages, and environment have gradually been ground to dust. But earlier this month, a grassroots slate of over 50 Democrats took control of the West Virginia Democratic Party after winning a majority of seats on the executive committee and ousting party leadership, thus ending Manchin’s de facto control of the state party apparatus.
