  Best I can do is a moderate
context: Not old.
  
  
  Knows what they're talking about.
  
  
  I shouldn't have to worry about them saying something stupid if they're in diplomatic talks with the leader of another nation. 
  
  
  Experienced with politics.
  
  
  Has America's best long-term goals in mind. 
  
  
  Exceptional grasp of our foreign policy and how to implement it.
  
  
  Focuses on strengthening the middle class.
  
  
  Focuses on fighting out of control housing.
  
  
  Focuses on fighting wealth disparity.
  
  
  As someone who comes from an upper class family, I hate America's slide into poverty more than anything. >
  
  I mean...if you think ablit it, if you cared about wealth disparity you should be rooting for poverty because America is rich as hell. Our bottom 10% love better than 90% of the world.
  What we deem to be poverty is where we would be living if we shared our wealth with the world >
  
  I honestly doubt that. Do you have any sort of citation/evidence for that?
  Consider most of our European allies that provide better social services like healthcare. How are homeless people in the US any better off than over there? >
  
  Damn our bottoms 10% are better than the top 10% of Italy >
  
  In Italy i joke every time with my friends about that, every time we think that people in the ghettos in us are richer than doctors and advocates here ahahah >
  
  The age preference is the most important result.
  The majority does not want Boomers or older generations anymore. But they want experienced leaders.
  This is going to elect Gen Xers again and again over the next ten years. Occasionally, Millenials and Gen Z will also rise to power. 
  The Elders will retire. >
  
  Yeah, this is the shift between two eras. Pelosi herself acknowledges it. >
  
  The majority of Americans are one unexpected illness or natural disaster related event from becoming homeless.  I want someone to fight for the lower working class who do thankless jobs to make billionaires richer.   I need to see some form or Universal healthcare or Medicare for all, every other first world nation has it and we spend more per person than they do and everyone on Medicaid is costing us because any and every  $100,000 dollar a year medication that they have to go on is paid by the citizens.   I want to see affordable housing.  You can't even qualify to rent a studio in most places making $15 an hour.  We should  not have homelessness build motel like rooms where people can live and have a private bath and and a kitchenette.  If people can live in a tent they can thrive in 150 sq ft.  and it will be cheaper than section 8 and if you can't behave you have to go back to the tents. >
  
  Agree with the medicare for all point. The points about homelessness are well intentioned but I think it misses the mark. A lot of homeless people don't actually WANT a place to live. Mental illness and addiction are drivers of this issue just as much, if not more, than a lack of affordable housing.  There's no easy answer (obviously), but I think something that should be on this list is investing specifically in mental health care programs, as well as helping to drive the cultural shift towards actually using them. Addiction is another big, difficult problem we need to address that comes into play here. We need a president who is willing to move past archaic drug criminalization policies and work on actually addressing the addiction problem we have. >
  
  Every homeless person wants a place to live.  Why would they get in a tent, plus how many are homeless and seniors who have to move back in with relatives or how many are living in their cars,  The people want to be homeless line is absurd. >
  
  Didn't say people want to be homeless. A lot of people who are homeless don't necessarily want to be placed in housing for reasons like:
  
  The housing won't allow their drug habit.
  They distrust any organization that may offer help because of trauma and/or mental illness.
  They simply don't have the mental wherewithall to accept help and work towards bettering themselves due to aforementioned addiction and mental illness issues.
  
  All I was really trying to do is point out just how important addiction and mental illness are in this equation. Obviously people want shelter, but someone dealing with severe addiction and mental illness might not get any real benefit from being offered something like a motel, because it doesn't address the underlying issue at all. And a massive amount of homeless people unfortunately fall into this category of being homeless due to mental health issues and a lack of support, not necessarily due to a lack of available housing. >
  
  What you say is true. Most people who are "down on their luck" are usually only homeless for a short period of time. In my anecdotal experience, most people who are homeless these days are completely incapable of helping themselves or are reluctant to do so due to drug addiction or affinity to a crust punk lifestyle. >
  
  
  affinity to a crust punk lifestyle.
  
  Not a crime, why should a fashion choice relegate one to homelessness? >
  
  All I want is someone who isn't a heartless incompetent asshole who sold out to big money.
