May 2016

has no plan to actually make public universities tuition free, or a plan for drug treatment period, and has no clue how to get a single payer system and doesn't even understand that it's not the same thing as Medicare for All.

So, he's pretty Romney and Trump like when it comes to releasing his tax records, which as an elected official whose issue is corruption of money in politics, makes his reluctance to keep his word and do what every candidate is required to do, rather supect.

Also, he's liberal on guns? On championing the rights of rape victims?

Sorry, but no. Releasing his tax returns as he claimed he already did, but has not, and promised to do, but also failed to will at least make him as liberal as every actual Democrat who has run for president.

So, what's he hiding? Other than his actual plans to get any of his vague rhetoric accomplished.

Why do you Berners and Bernie ALWAYS change the subject on this issue? Why don't you want him to stop being a liar who doesn't keep his word on at least this ONE thing, and ask him to release his "boring" taxes? What's he afraid of, and why are you so scared to ask?
