Imaginary candidate: he is gung-ho on Medicare-for-All and is eager to sign onto John Conyers' HR 676 as soon as he's elected. In fact, his campaign is based not just on Medicare-For-All, but on free state colleges, a higher minimum wage, getting corrupting cachet of elections.

-by NoahI'm not a religious guy; far from it. I was raised as a Christian (Episcopalian) but I got over it at an early age.
