Bernie Sanders on Face The Nation: Voters should take a "hard look" at Clinton emails report

Sanders: Voters should take a "hard look" at Clinton emails report
By Emily Schultheis
Face The Nation
May 29, 2016


Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders said in an interview airing Sunday that voters will need to take a "hard look" at the State Department audit criticizing Clinton for her use of a private email server, but stopped short of going after her directly for it.

"The Inspector General just came out with a report, it was not a good report for Secretary Clinton. That is something that the American people, Democrats and delegates are going to have to take a hard look at," he said. "But for me right now, I continue to focus on how we can rebuild a disappearing middle class, deal with poverty, guarantee health care to all of our people as a right."

Sanders said he believes he doesn't have to focus superdelegates' attention on the IG report.

"They will be keeping it in mind. I don't have to tell them that," Sanders said. "I mean, everybody in America is keeping it in mind, and certainly the superdelegates are."

He insulted HIV/AIDS activists earlier this week in Washington, and now this.

At this point his legacy will be nothing but equivocal, entitled bitterness.

I'm calling it a troll.

They've been flooding in and have picked 2 off the last time I spent a few hours here.

Check the profile when you see "Ratfuckery" or just plain "WTF".

They have been flooding in here recently, and it is fucking overrun.

Certainly a voter's ability to trust the person that they are voting for should be based on the behavioral history of that candidate.

Here is some very important evidence toward achieving that end...


MSNBC To the deniers... Watch THIS Video... It is not comforting to think that she may well be the Democratic Nominee...

Hillary really betrayed Andrea Mitchell... The entire context of this report was of a solemn nature... A Funeral so to speak...

Andrea Mitchell "I do not see this report as ...ANYTHING BUT... DEVASTATING!"

Chuck Todd "After this I don't think that she could get confirmed for Attorney General!"

Lots of FIBBING by Hillary here.. for more than a year!

8. I hope people do take a look at the actual report. They will see that most of the media is lying

to them. The IG report was a general review of the ongoing procedures and security of employee emails at the State Department. It was not specific to Hillary, and covered much more than just her. It also concluded that they felt the problems were resolved and gave no indication that any punishment was necessary.
