If the Democratic platform doesn’t include universal healthcare, green new deal and debt-free college we don’t have a liberal party in the United States. We have two conservative parties who do the bidding of the wealthy. That’s why we need Bernie.

Will the new fresh faces of the democratic party (AOC, Ilhan Omar and Rashida tlaib) help or hurt democrats in 2020.
Basically what the title says. I've seen a lot of news of a new progressive spirit that has infused the party due to the new fresh representatives.
