Seriously, most of us on the left are actually basing our support of Bernie Sanders on the issues.

For some reason a few stupid tweets by right wing organizations are supposed to cast some kind of disrepute on those of us that have been long critical of Senator and Secretary Clinton and her record on economic issues.

It really is kind of offensive that some on this site now accuse anyone supporting Sanders or critical of the TPP as somehow being pawns of the right wing.

Could we please move on from this?

Most Sanders supporters are reposting positive stories and videos about his positions and what he is doing these days.

Yeah it's hard to tell the difference. hollowdweller May 2015 #10

Perfect plan? Hardly. Republicans forget the election is 18 months ago, liberals are not as stupid. Fred Sanders May 2015 #12

Yeah, because liberals can't possibly inform themselves of Clinton's Wall St associations cui bono May 2015 #7

Exactly! kenfrequed May 2015 #27

BINGO swilton May 2015 #40

If you believe what you say you wouldn't be making up shit about Bernie. cui bono May 2015 #72

There is nothing made up about Bernie: He is a nice man! lewebley3 May 2015 #75

You have stated elsewhere that he is connected to big money, cui bono May 2015 #76

He has had to raise money like any other poltiican! lewebley3 May 2015 #77

How does that make him connected to big money? n/t cui bono May 2015 #78

Big money is a relative term, In Bernie's state the donors are big money! lewebley3 May 2015 #79

Everyone has Wall St Asociations, they own most of the Country! lewebley3 May 2015 #53

My take on this dreamnightwind May 2015 #13

2 for the price of 1 here. paint liberals as too stupid to form their own views on the candidates.. frylock May 2015 #16

Nice Try DownriverDem May 2015 #17

The "Right" doesn't need to bother. Hillary managed to alienate the Left all on her own. 2banon May 2015 #18

thats true PatrynXX May 2015 #23

Yup, Hillary is her own worst enemy. It will become obvious when she has to start A Simple Game May 2015 #24

Hillary has not managed to alienate the left: She is the left, and they are supporting her! lewebley3 May 2015 #51

Your political world view perspective is woefully uninformed.. 2banon May 2015 #67

The Dem's are left, they supporting are Hillary, Check Dem's polls lewebley3 May 2015 #69

I'd say I'd want what you have in that pipe you're smoking.. 2banon May 2015 #73

But, the leftist would be responsible for the GOP if they don't vote for Hillary lewebley3 May 2015 #74
