2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Bernie MALICIOUSLY ATTACKS Planned Parenthood in E-Mail [View all]monicaangela
(1,508 posts)35. As Bernie said,
some of the members higher up in Planned Parenthood are also a part of the establishment and go along to get along instead of backing the candidate that could in the end be more beneficial for them. In this case, I don't believe there is too much difference between what Hillary will do to try to help PP, and what Bernie will do. I do however believe that Bernie Sanders will get more down ticket candidates elected and IMHO is what will help Planned Parenthood in the end.
