I admire your idealism. Harris is the most progressive candidate the DNC is even willing to front and I bet they are doing that with clenched teeth.
She’s voted with Bernie more often than anyone else so let’s see what she has to cook.
It’s easy to sound progressive when you don’t have the power or the ability to enact the things that you support. Much like when she ran, she supported a livable minimum wage. and then blamed its failure to pass on an unelected parliamentarian. She’s claimed to have supported universal health care, or M4A. until she didn’t in the middle of a pandemic.
When an unelected parliamentarian tried that during the Bush administration, the Senate fired that unelected parliamentarian. It’s not their job to decide what congress has the ability to pass
So by that standard, isn’t your ideal independent pick even more so lacking the power to implement their ideals? Pretending it actually happens, they’d have literally zero party support in the house or senate, meaning they’d have infinitely less chance of enacting any of their promises.
