He’s the leftwing outsider who nearly became the Democrats’ candidate for president - twice. As his position on the Israel-Gaza war threatens to upset his support, the veteran senator says he’s tired but determined to fight the return of that ‘ bitter, humiliated man’
I mean parliamentary countries say their head of government, say their leader is elected, but it’s just short for the “majority party has a leader”. There’s no requirement in my country for the head of government to actually have an elected seat, it’s just tradition the head of the party has one. Usually if the leader has no seat, a member in a “safe” riding resigns and he gets a seat that way, or alternatively, appoints himself to the Senate. The person doesn’t actually have to do either, head of government is a cabinet position, not a parliamentary position. Speaker and house leader cover that in parliament.
