2. Where was his "bold & fearless voice" for the Latinos of Sierra Blanco Tx

The only voice he gave was to vote against the Wellstone ammendments that would give the Latino residents power to fight GWBush & his 1%er Corporate Waste Dumping cronys.
Bernie Sanders voiced his preference alright.
He voted Against the PROGRESSIVE Senator from MN, Paul Wellstone, and in favor of VT's Radioactive Waste Dumping Board, which his wife Jane still collects a salary from, and AGAINST Protecting Sierra Blanca residents from living in a toxic waste dump.

When it benefitted VT and wife Jane's salary, Bernie voted FOR toxic sludge being dumped on residents of Sierra Blanca Tx.

Why the sudden concern for toxic fracking waste?

Sanders' Flip flop hypocrisy.
