people? The left can have autocrats and evil and corruption too. If you think your side is all 100% good, all the time, everywhere, you will soon scapegoat. If you are a Bernie fan go with the truth he speaks. Maduro has to let the aid in.

Couldn't it be true that Maduro is hurting his own people?

(132,209 posts)5. I think that is what the OP is agreeing with. He is against the comments of
the people. For Bernie in this instance. IMHO.

Sanders seems reasonable and the responses seem reasonable. Not trying to be obtuse.
