    Why is this guy so great???

    He is exactly what this country needs right now. We need more progressives to follow in his steps. Maybe one state at a time we can make this place NOT a shithole anymore.

      I wouldn’t call him great.

      What he’s doing is what should be normal. It just seems great because all our politicians are so awful.

          They’re not entirely off the mark though. Native-born Americans are pretty spoiled and complacent, on average. Immigrants, even kids, tend to have more of a sense of context and a sort of hustle mentality. My wife’s an immigrant and we’ve talked at length about it.

          You’re right that he’s as American as any other citizen in ways that matter, but born-and-raised Americans are more likely to get swept up in our bread and circuses.
