That's why remarks like 'coronation' and 'warmonger' and other such perjoratives would not be favored by him because he knows her well and respects her decades of steady, unheralded progressive work.
One could call him a supporter of the MIC for the F-35 which is pork barrel for his state. One could call him a warmonger for supporting Israeli defense funds and the Kosovo campaign. He's for wiping out ISIS and says Israel is key to that aim.
Some don't appear to want to do anything in a world where the leaders in this world are burnt like strawdogs by the fickle masses when they are protecting those same people.
The same people that spit at Obama forget he has held true to his promise when he said, 'Social Security will not be privatized as long as I am in office.' Yet every GOP running has promised exactly that.
No Democrat supports it. But they will have to deal with those the voters and non-voters send to Congress or the White House. They are disrespected for this miserable task. Those who refuse to vote in 2016 because their person doesn't get the nod, will have the blood of Millions on their hands. They have no moral compass if they allow this to happen. Sanders calls the GOP plan for what it really is: Murder. But we all know that, don't we?
He knows he cannot get all he wants, has even begged those who come to his rallies to give him a Congress he can work with. This is the same thing that Obama has done.
These politicians don't live in the rarified air of self-righteous, 'No, I won't vote!' online warriors or those who have a visceral hatred for Clinton. We cannot afford this infantilism. He stumped the nation last year begging people to vote against the GOP.
Yet some would hand them the Presidency over to them in an fit of puerile petulance. I think he knows vastly more about Clinton than online pundits and he respects her.
Is that too much to ask for a site that bills itself as a haven for Democrats to live up to his standards? Of course, it's not just this site that's spinning the crank handle to get more water out of the well for whatever reason they are doing it. That alkaline water tastes lousy.
The Democratic party has given Bernie a lot of favors and he has voted with Democratic legislation 98% of the time, more than most Democrats! Howard Dean calls him a liberal DEMOCRAT!
They've funded his runs, didn't run competing candidates, accepted him with open arms and he is a favored member of the Democratic group the CPC, been approved by the DLC and welcomed by all candidates in the Democratic Party in his run for POTUS. The money of the party is carrying Bernie.
He's been given good committee assignments by Democrats no GOP ever would. He'd be sick if he read some of the stuff posted here.
To those who regard HRC as the ultimate evil:
What if he's Hillary's stalking horse to move the national conversation closer to what she wants it to be?
What if Bernie endorses her at the end?
What will the HRC haters do, commit hari kari?
Or even more so, if he gets the nod and wins the General, and is not able to deliver instant results, will he be, like Obama:
You bet he will! But I'll be one of the ones defending him, not calling him names and snarling 'I was 'betrayed.'
Only children think they've been lied to, or been betrayed when a parent can't afford to get them the latest toy or can't take them to Camp Perfection.
People definitely need to lighten up:
The critical words from that song:
'You can all sleep sound tonight. I'm not crazy... or anything.'
That's what we've had since 2009 and still, he's despised. People should think about who they are going after, it might be the very best friend they were ever going to get.
Not all have the spiritual basis to be as patient and forgiving as the families in Charleston or Obama. Make good use of these days and show some love and compassion. We won't get this chance again.
