A compilation of lies Hillary has said about Bernie

• Misrepresented Sanders' vote on the 2000 CFMA

• Misrepresented Sanders' vote on the 2007 Immigration Reform bill

• Misrepresented Sanders' vote on the 2008 Auto Bailout

• Misrepresented Sanders' 2006 stance on indefinite detention regarding undocumented migrants

• Used a very small incident to push the narrative that Sanders and the Koch brothers had a close tie and were helping each other

• Pushed the narrative that Sanders was a misogynist over his "Shouting" comment on gun control

• Pushed the narrative that Sanders was a racist over his "Urban" comment on gun control

• Pushed the narrative that Sanders' campaign was running negative advertisements attacking Clinton, referencing this ad:



• Labeled Sanders a "one issue candidate" over his "one issue" focus on corruption via campaign finance, revolving door employment, and lobbying

• Disingenuously claimed that Sanders has also "accepted money from Wall Street" through the DCCC, and that he's therefore no different than Clinton on accepting major donations from the financial sector

• Pushed Univision's out-of-context narrative of depicting Sanders as someone who wholly supported and praised Fidel Castro

• Used scare tactics to dissuade voters away from Sanders' single-payer healthcare proposal by disingenuously stating that Sanders would get rid of Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare, etc.

• "Where was Sanders when I was fighting for Healthcare?!" when he was involved in the efforts on multiple levels, as was acknowledged by Clinton at the time.

• Compared Sanders to communist dictators such as Hugo Chavez

• Spread the rumor that Sanders' campaign was busing in out-of-state voters to cheat a win in Iowa

• Misrepresented Sanders' intentions in pushing someone to challenge Obama in the '12 primaries

The thing that bothers me the most is that she and Obama and Bush and the media have totally hidden a major issue related to health care and education - for 20 years- from us- hiding a global privatization agenda which is anti-democracy and toxic to the entire planet's future. THAT changes everything.
