From all the journalists covering the campaign have written, it’s my impression that Jane is one of his most influential policy advisers. Bernie not wanting to turn her into a political asset might just be modesty, or even just her being shy.

I get that you’re stoked for a woman president. But that shouldn’t intoxicate you. It should be something you weigh in the balance, along with everything else. It’s got its place, but not at the top of the list of priorities, in my opinion.
