(42,649 posts)I read a Boston Globe article, an opinion piece, and linked to it in this thread. It was only the personal opinion of the writer that is being cited there as evidence of Sanders' intent and feeling. The piece is clearly identified as an opinion piece, not a news article, and while the author is entitled to her opinion, I do not accept it as the equivalent of a specific citation to anything that Sanders' himself said.

As to the organizers, my position has been and remains that they made the decision of who to invite, and how to schedule. Obviously many people disagree with their decisions and I respect the disagreements as well as the right of the organizers to run the conference.
Thank you for the compliment sheshe, it means a lot to hear it from a longtime DU person. While we disagree occasionally, you also are an intelligent and respected member of the DU community.
And, as further praise, the trolls at DI hate you with a passion. For that alone I would give you another Star beside your name.
