I thought bill clinton was an amazing president. My mom is still in love with him. But comments like this are totally uncalled for and unfair. So much wealth has been created since the 80s in this country and so much of it has gone to the top 1 percent. Speaking out agianst things like that does not MAKE YOU A TEA PARTIER. Just thought this was very disappointing. BTW im still torn between bernie and hillary since california is a ways way from voting but comments like this does not make want to jump and go vote for hillary over bernie.


Link to article - i did double check to make sure it wasnt some right wing website. It doesnt seem to be but just apologies ahead.

4. Well, sure

Sanders is doing to the Democratic Party what the Tea Party did to the Republicans. He's trying to drag our party in a different direction, and that's no good for people like Clinton, who specifically moved our party away from where it had been toward associations with banks and business interests.
