Bernie Moved the Overton Window, Biden Stepped Through It

From my new post on The Liberal Patriot:
"Bernie Sanders and his movement had quite an impact on American politics in 2016 and 2020 but it is almost inconceivable that he will run again in 2024. At the dawn of the Biden administration, what should we make of his campaigns and the potential of his brand of politics going forward?
It is a mixed record. On the positive side, it seems entirely fair to credit him with moving the Democratic party and the entire political conversation to the left. He has been a veritable Overton window-moving machine....But there was failure as well, most critically in the coalition-building and political power area."
