2. The Canards About Bernie's Hatred For Women Are Bunk

This endorsement hit AFTER the fake news of the dust-up with Senator Warren leading up to the Iowa debate.

Of all people, Congresswomen Jayapal would not endorse Sanders if he hated women.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

Medicare for all; getting insurance profit the hell out of health care; a progressive tax system; raising the minimum wage; parental leave---are not extreme left.

These are basic tenets in all developed democracies. Not extreme left. Basic.

Even Obama wanted to get insurers out of the ACA but didn't have the wherewithal to do it. Was he extreme left?

The only way to head off a second great depression is to preemptively strengthen the middle class and workers and address this ruinous income disparity. Programs that do this are not far left. They're common sense.

Always finding reasons to erase women while they call others misogynists.

My position (presuming to speak for Congresswoman Jayapal here) is that she WOULD NOT HAVE ENDORSED in 2020 if she felt Sanders were a misogynist, period! She is very much her own person. Anyone who knows her knows that.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Undecided
