1. She has her Super PAC, "Correct the Record" publishing a "narrative" for her....

It's very slick and presents her in the most favorable ways possible, with cherry picked statements and slick graphics.

No link to the propaganda.

I don't think she'll do very well with a microphone or in a debate.

within a fairly short period of time, it was debunked. I don't think he was a Bernie or O'Malley operative, though.

But since then, since that has expired? Her corporate money is going to make her less appealing to the class that only earns $30-50,000 a year. $19 million in 6 months comes out to something in excess of $100,000 a day. That's 2-3 years worth of income those she's trying to court. The "rebuttal" has been that Bernie can't manage money because he doesn't have a lot. Tha'st a sure loser.

Today was the first day I found Bernie in the top three videos on Yahoo News.

Google makes no mention...busy with the flood in China, surveillance, some British guy died and Caitlyn Jenner. I found not one photo or mention about Bernie Sanders.

Oh, and Fox is busy with their Scoop on the Duggars.

Squeaky clean politician in history..until his own State citizens began to publicly speak up as to the mistrust of this politician, Sanders, whom they have known longer than anyone.
The F-35 issue & the sex paper from his past now causes one to trust Sanders less & less.
He is suddenly looking like any other politician, trust is slowly being broken.

Its the same thing Hillary experiences whenever negatives from her past come into question .

Sanders will continue to be called to account for what the locals & press speak about, as Hillary is now, and he needs to answer for, defend, or own it, as trust is chipped away at.
Good Luck maneuvering through the minefield of mistrustworthy news. Nothing you say ever makes it go away.
And some use it intentionally in as vile way they can to chip away at the trust of voters.
Hang in there Bernie, if Hillary can emerge with such enormous popularity after 25 yrs of people trying to break the trust of voters, then you can too.

The F-35 'issue' that has mistrust if from an extreme leftist Socialist organization.

The 'sex paper' has been debunked more times than I can count.

Anything else?
