It gets posted out of context endlessly, but post an actual in context video and some get upset.
Seems like a double standard. I should bring it up for discussion.

But you can be better than them, odds are Hillary will win, even though I wont initially vote for her (my vote means so much LOL) and you will have to better represent her to those who dont know what to do.

He always does that, he saw she was real close, he was protecting her.

Again, you are better than this.

and actually SPEAKING OF CHILDREN as 'super-predators' and 'bringing them to heel'! should be obvious to anyone.

Your double standard is a figment of your own mind and is pretty much a joke to any thinking person.

I'm not sure what it doing her more damage, her arrogance and her shading the truth every chance she gets or her supporters who lap it up without any critical thinking.

Right now, I'm seeing no difference between Mrs. Clinton's supporters and that 30 percent who thought GWB walked on water.

But we'll know better when she releases the transcripts of her multi-million dollar speeches.

He tells her "don't stand there." Someone else said she was almost about to stand on the taped down mic and sound cords. 

Its just as reasonable to assume he was alarmed for her.

This ASSumption that its "disrespect "or "rude" isnt supported by the many other thousands of hours of tape where its obvious the Sanders are a loving couple.
