My Take
Ro Khanna interests me because he occupies the most awkward intersection in American politics: a progressive Democrat representing Silicon Valley itself. Lawyer, lecturer, author, and the man who unseated an eight-term incumbent, his 2016 win after a failed 2014 run tells me everything about his persistence. What I watch for is how he balances tech-industry ambition against his talk of workers left behind by the digital economy. Whether or not you buy his vision, he is one of the few politicians genuinely fluent in both policy and product cycles, and I suspect his national profile will keep rising.
