It would have been a massive struggle in the Senate to get them to back anything he proposed.

That's something I can agree with and even though he won't win, I still respect him a lot for being the voice that people wanted to hear. He made the race for presidency at least interesting and he got to the ears of younger voters, and say what you will, but he's definitely made an impact with how younger voters see politics now. It's changed the scene a little bit, and if that was his primary goal, he definitely succeeded.
