It was definitely a misstep but it's not like you can really say you didn't see something like this coming. Hillary Clinton is politicking. Using her daughter was a strategy. Hillary Clinton doesn't see the the Presidency as a way to serve the people. She doesn't see it as a way to make the country better. She see it as an ACHIEVEMENT. It's like a football team trying to win the Super Bowl. They make adjustments. They change strategy. If something they are doing isn't working then they do something else depending on who they are up against. There's a plan to win. Things are calculated. The POTUS is a championship trophy to Hillary Clinton.
Bernie Sanders has been saying the same things for decades. It's not an achievement for him to become President. It's a way for him to make the country a better place. It's why his platform and messages have always been the same. He actually believes in them. Even if you don't think they're any good, he's at least honest enough to do something he believes in instead of doing or saying whatever it is he thinks will win him the trophy.
