Spike Lee and Wife Split on Endorsements: He Goes for Bernie, She’s for Hillary

[ismnotwasm]

Film director Spike Lee and his wife Tonya Lewis Lee disagee about who should be President next. Spike has made a radio commercial for Bernie Sanders in South Carolina. The endorsement is meant to counter Hillary Clinton’s excellent TV commercial narrated by Morgan Freeman. They each want the black vote. Spike says Bernie takes no money from corporations “nada” and marched with Martin Luther King. (Do you know many people marched with Martin Luther King, by the way? It’s like saying you went to Woodstock.)

1. Get your facts straight, Spike, Sanders did not "march with King."

As Sanders' own website says, he did not march next to King but merely attended King's DC speech, and stood "way in the back." Hillary actually personally MET King well before Sanders went to that speech.

And Bernie has certainly benefited as least indirectly from corporate donations. Bernie has gotten some corporate donations over the years related to Vermont-based businesses, and was more than happy to defend Lockheed Martin for F-35 boondoggle jobs in Vermont, so he could stay in office.
