In reply to the discussion: Bernie Sanders: Hillary Clinton is not 'qualified' to be president [View all]rivertext
(182 posts)regarding your tagline: "Most Sanders supporters recognize that there is far more daylight between Clintons policies and Sanders than between Clinton and any of the Republicans."
Bernie and Hillary's positions on most issues are very similar. Some will go back years to a position Hillary had years ago, but the simple fact is that they agree NOW all over the place and similarly disagree with the Republicans on everything. Sure Hillary can point to some past issues with Bernie's positions on Gun Control and Bernie can point to her evolution on same sex marriage, her mistaken vote for the Iraq war, and so on, he can argue that his Wall Street reforms are tougher than Hillary's. The Republicans are on the opposite side on all these issues.

And, in regards to the topic:
Hillary did not say Bernie wasn't qualified to be president, she criticized his apparent lack of a plan to break up the big banks:
"I think he hadn't done his homework and he'd been talking for more than a year about doing things that he obviously hadn't really studied or understood," Clinton said in an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," just one day after losing the Wisconsin primary to Sanders, "and that does raise a lot of questions."
Bernie Sanders supporters here attack Hillary here every day in much stronger terms. Why the double standard?
I'm asking Bernie Sanders supporters here to reconsider their rhetoric.
