(6,288 posts)Its not anti- bernie to expect a candidate or politician who's income & sustenance comes from the taxpayers. Whose legislative decisions involve us all.
The post-Trump world is absolutely right to demand questions that were left unaccounted for, be held to eventually answer for.
This is not anti-bernie. This is about all candidates & politicians practicing what they preach & answer to the public they claim to want to lead.
Words of a politician are fine but when there is a hint of doubt as to hidden financials, we have a right to ask & a right to be answered.
Thank Trump for the transparent scrutiny now placed on past & future financial affiliations of all candidates.
The longer they bar that door to questions, the greater suspicions will become.
"Living forthright & forthcoming is an honest man's path."
That quote is more pointed today, since Trump, than ever before.
