2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Can Bernie Sanders recover? [View all]Lizzie Poppet
(10,164 posts)21. Not according to his Wikipedia profile, anyway.
Mohn has contributed to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Gephardt for President, Gore 2000, John Kerry for President, McCain 2000, Obama Victory Fund 2012, and the Progressive Patriots Fund[1]
The only glitch there is McCain 2000, but after W got the nomination, apparently he flipped to Gore. That was right at the peak of McCain's "maverick" period, when he was actually advocating some sensible election reforms, and so forth. Unfucking elections being a huge, huge issue, I can understand Mohn's position.
Overall, I'd have to consider Mohn a liberal, albeit more in the Hillary mold than the Sanders mold.

Well, regardless, NPR has an obvious rightward bias. I guess we aren't supposed to notice, lol.

Maybe so. I have not listened for a long time. But I can smell the masqueraders a mile off.

Okay. Today I listened to several hours of NPR. They were very unfair to Bernie.

The KKK is anti-Jewish. No question about that. Always has been. Always will be. n/t
