Letter: Bernie Sanders is a true leader

It’s time we non-Muslims invite our Muslim neighbors to join us, and each in our way, pray for the most fragile in our world.

Sick and premature babies everywhere, and their anxious families, need all the comfort we can offer. We become “Share the Care.” Soon, someone among us will notice that others also suffer helplessness and hunger, including the disabled and sick. So we expand our list and become “Learning to Love.” Learning to pray for others brings wisdom, the clarity to recognize leaders who themselves live compassionate lives.

True leaders inspire everyone to sacrifice for the welfare of those hurting. This is Bernie Sanders.
