No, but I would prefer that he stop questioning Hillary Clinton's integrity while dancing around issues of his own: Democratic vs Independent, numbers that simply don't add up & never will, and supporters who are quite willing to reduce women to their body parts.

Personally, I'm glad the conversation has pushed left during the primary. Bernie Sanders has done that. But he's been running a symbolic campaign that has quickly turned nasty.

And btw, I suspect most of the Hillary Forum folks are liberals. You don't get to own that moniker simply because you support and believe Bernie Sanders.

Sanders still has not raised any $$ for down -ticket Dems--that is another concern! riversedge Feb 2016 #19
it's a concern and it's telling. It speaks to a lack of integrity but shows that he's not above BlueCaliDem Feb 2016 #23
