The problem with Bernie: he's not much of a Democrat

[Anonymous]

Hillary Clinton endorsed Barack Obama as soon as it became clear she would not catch him in the primary. Well before the convention.

The way to continue our fight now, to accomplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength, and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next president of the United States.

Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him and throw my full support behind him.

Sanders is much farther behind today than Clinton ever was in 2008. Why won't Sanders show the same respect that Clinton gave to Barack Obama ???

That's a very good question.

Sanders is not vilifying Clinton. He is running because he sees how the democratic party is evolving, and Clinton is part of that evolution... Someone needs to stand up for democratic values and principles, and in doing so, expose how "the sausage" is made. He is advocating for a democratic sausage without all the unnecessary additives and fillers, and labeling of "non organic" (so to speak) political processes. He's very very good for the sausage industry.

3/26 - "Sanders hit former Sec. of State Clinton for her super PACs and again called on her to release the transcript of her speeches to Wall Street. The Democratic candidate said that his campaign is doing well because they are listening to the American people, not special interest contributors."

3/25 - "Sanders also pleased his fans with jabs at Clinton - scolding her Wall Street-funded campaign and her vote in favor of the Iraq war in 2002"

3/25 - “Don’t let anybody tell you that Hillary Clinton is the strongest Democratic candidate to take on the Republicans. It is not true,” Sanders told the crowd at Safeco Field.

3/25 - "Sanders directly criticized Clinton, taking her to task for accepting Wall Street money via campaign contributions and in paid speeches."

Sounds like he's hitting her pretty hard.

You're joking. He is definitely vilifying her. That's why when he mentions her name at his rallies, his groupies boo.

I don't recall this happening when she ran against Obama. The booing of the other candidate at rallies. Does anyone know?

This is not the USA in 2008. It's a whole different ballgame.

Nope, try again

Or elaborate. I want to know why the booing and the vilifying is ok in 2016.

+1. That was a lame non-answer.

Bernie has two problems: everything he says and everything he does.

Do you disagree with any of the above mentioned talking points? Do you want wall street money to continue to finance campaigns? Were you in favor of the Iraq war? Do you not agree that Sanders polls better against Trump and Cruz?

You seem to be objecting to statements of fact, among others. That makes no sense. Are you a fan of open democracy, or do you prefer a one party, one candidate system?

Yeah, she's even less popular now.

Not PP, but there's a lot more than statements of fact, and I object to them. Why should she release transcripts so they can be picked apart? Great advantage to give trump and Cruz. That's a stupid move. And he claims he's listening to the American people? Bull. More of the American people are voting for Clinton.

Wrong, as a matter of fact. She winning. He's just running a very divisive, conspiracy-driven campaign. And one that uses rich white kids by telling them they're smarter than everyone else. Of course, they're well prepared to believe that message.
