[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My evolution to Sanders has been a direct function of my disillusionment with Clinton.[/quote]
I think the thread is about how your opinion of Sanders has evolved over the course of the campaign. [/quote]

Not the PP you are responding to but I don't see how that is not directly relevant to position on Sanders.

Let's face it, Hillary Clinton is the de-facto, default Democrat choice.  But as the races drug on, as we sat through debates, et cetera, for some of us it occurred to us that maybe she isn't the best choice.  Which in turn leads to digging into what some of the others are saying.  And frankly, some of it becomes a revelation, i.e. Hillary Clinton's deep corporate and Wall Street ties vs. Sanders' messaging about getting those corporate influences out of politics.

I know you don't want anyone to talk about Clinton but sorry - that's evolution on Sanders any way you want to slice it.[/quote]
But none of what you wrote deals wth Sanders himself, except as the anti-Hillary. And it's just talking points, really.

Case in point: "getting corporate influences out of politics." How does Sanders propose to do that other than by overturning Citizens United, which Clinton also supports? What concrete steps will he take that she won't? I'm not snarking here. The Democratic and Republican conventions are largely funded by corporations. Is he not going to participate in the convention?[/quote]
