Very true. That is a right winger thing to say treestar Oct 2015 #115

He's lying. Evergreen Emerald Oct 2015 #14

No. He's not. Fawke Em Oct 2015 #29

The point is to get people discussing whether or not Sanders is sexist, make him deny it. TwilightGardener Oct 2015 #34

I agree, Bernie is not 'shouting at anyone'. This is just his style of speaking, he has always Sunlei Oct 2015 #38

It is indeed "just his style of speaking," and he should really work on it. Orrex Oct 2015 #49

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Bernie. haikugal Oct 2015 #71
