Elizabeth Warren just said today that Sanders is putting the right issues for the party and for the country, which is effectively what Sanders said here.
“He’s out there, he fights from the heart. This is who Bernie is. And he has put the right issues on the table both for the Democratic party and the country. I’m…

with you.
Portmanteau, no pesky hyphen, log family’s last names in a book. or a website these days.
That’s the best I’ve got.
If this is the first time he’s heard the allegations, the university also failed on that front.
Lol. At first I thought you were really interested in crunching the numbers, but now I know you just lack imagination.
Plus less contribution to less cheap manufacturing/poor labor conditions
Obama started his presidency auspiciously, but he’s not very different from Clinton on foreign and economic policy. He signed off on intervention in Libya, and despite tensions with Netanyahu, he’s still funding Israel apartheid no strings attached. Clinton may amp it up given her AIPAC rhetoric which is concerning,…
it’s them! jkjk
This already happens on the federal scale. https://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/03/wadie-…
He doesn’t really go into the premise built into the first half of his title. He also doesn’t describe his efforts to stay in touch with his daughter. If his ex is the breadwinner, he could be a caretaker.
Again no need for snark. The point here is that Sanders was wrong on the crime bill, but his stance is also documented and thoughtful, and he’s demonstrated sincere passion on the racist criminal justice system. And you keep on setting up this straw man that Sanders is ideal.
You’re only looking for things that reinforce your worldview. Supporting an avowed segregationist when you’re 16 is not defensible and neither is the Clintons’ continued support for Robert Byrd even after his death. http://gawker.com/to-protect-and…
By the way, Clinton has challenged Sanders directly on his 1994 vote, and this is what he had to say (I couldn’t find a clip of this exchange without the text, but this is the exchange from the debate).
Again Sanders is not ideal. He should not have voted for that bill, and he should apologize for the havoc it wrought…
That was one of two threads you started; why not link directly to my direct response to you? Sanders and Clinton’s support for the 1994 crime bill were categorically different: http://theslot.jezebel.com/here-s-shaun-k…
Here’s more context: http://www.vox.com/2016/2/26/1111…
I find Warren much more trustworthy than Clinton (and most politicians). I wish she ran.
I have also received a lot of insulting, condescending, dismissive, whitesplaining, pandering comments from Clinton supporters, who’ve literally threatened that I’m pissing them (i.e. white people) off by challenging them, and I…
Follow the thread of this conversation. It started with the alignment on progressive and economic justice issues of Warren and Sanders, and you’ve moved the goalposts since then. All the while you have continued to make shit up about me and my views. None of which include “Sanders is the messiah.”
It is fair during a primary to compare candidates’ positions historically as well as their platforms currently side by side.
I’m not lecturing you, I’m disputing you. Which I can do without speculating about your identity or making condescending remarks.
In what way? I’ve continued this discussion with you on its own merits, and I haven’t resorted to personal attacks.
