There’s no room for liberal voices among the Democrats, until after the election, anyway. Happens literally every election season. Then, after the elections are over, we wonder why social democracy hasn’t kicked in yet.

But Obama is a centrist.

In all fairness, Sanders has consistently disagreed with several of Obama’s policies. In this case, he actual his expressing 100 percent support for Garland while also - and honestly - expressing his own preference should he become president.
