Bernie’s Running for Re-Election on Independent Ticket

33. Some do, some don't argument

That sounds remarkably like the GOPs stance on climate change. One economist has endorsed Sanders' fanciful numbers while a slew including Paul Krugman (Nobel prize recipient in economics) have refuted the numbers. As far as Hillary Clinton's positions? She was a liberal in years past and is a liberal now. I'd suggest you look at her overall voting record in the Senate where she was more liberal than 85% of its members. Or check her public speeches. Better yet, go over to 538 and read the analysis there:

If you want a purity test, you're barking up the wrong tree for Clinton or Sanders or any politician in the US. There are no perfect candidates out there. As far as calling you or any Sanders supporter ridiculous? Really? Have you been following the tenor of the conversation from your own group? You might think Hillary Clinton deserved burning at the stake.

I like Bernie Sanders the man. I appreciate how he's pushing the conversation to the left. I detest the campaign that his supporters are running to diminish the most experienced, qualified candidate the Democratic Party has ever had.

Like Hillary Clinton, I am a liberal. And proud of it.
