34. Using your own logic, Sanders is not qualified either - but you are wrong

Thu Apr 7, 2016, 03:51 PM

Apr 2016

Here, let me rewrite your post for you from the other side:

Sanders recent statements such as his failure to affirm that Clinton is qualified to be Democratic president

suggest to me that he does not have the tact or intelligent to be president.

Obama would never say or insinuate the nasty things about Clinton that Sanders has been saying and insinuating.

These low digs are the resort of a loser, of a vicious loser.

Sanders is alienating Clinton supporters with his loose tongue and his lack of graciousness and lovingness.

The technical aspects of being president are less important than the social ones.

Sanders fails on social graces.

It's not because he is a man. Obama is a man and succeeds when it comes to the social graces.

Warren is a woman and is as kind and gracious as a person can be.

Sander -- no. And that is why I do not think that he is qualified to be president.

That is exactly what a Clinton supporter could say about Sanders and they believe it as much as you believe your nonsense.

Here is the correct answer:

Both Democratic candidates are qualified to be president and both of them would make excellent presidents, especially compared to Trump or Cruz.
