Gets nothing done? You really need to look into Bernie's record. He's gotten plenty done over his history, including numerous shadow bills he alllowed others to put in their name.
Did you just label ALL of Palestine as "Worse than Israel", including the kids? That's.... not good ABF. Rethink your position.
In any case, your judgment that if only one centrist candidate ran they'd get 60% of the vote is... not how that works. The number one second choice among Biden supporters? Sanders. Second? Warren. Why is that? A large number of people support Biden purely because he is "electable". That's what poll after poll shows. Strip that away, as he's managed to do recently, and they end up going with the one that fits their goals better.
Stop voting based on who can "get things done" and vote based on what you WANT done. We can do whatever the hell we want, we just have to chose to! I mean that, in a very literal sense. If the vast majority of the electorate WANTS an issue to happen, but it doesn't, then the flaw is with our democracy. It means it's more fragile than we thought, and needs cleansing.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
