Has anyone noticed this shift in thinking about Clinton from Sanders folks?

89. REALLY! What a honking load of revisionist horseshit some of that nonsense is!

Like no one would bat an eye if a POTUS rounded up every member of an ethnic/national group and shoved them into concentration camps in the desert!

Imagine that--all you Iraqis, off to Camp A~! Syrians, you'll be in Camp B for the duration! Iranians--put away the chandeliers and the ghormeh sabzi, you're going to Camp C!!

Shhhh...don't mention that--just mention the government work programs that were designed to keep the wolf from the door during economic collapse!

And as for JFK, well, if we are to be brutally honest, here, I don't think Nixon was the only reason why Gerald Ford got around to signing that Presidential Executive Order 11905 with regard to prohibition of assassinations... and I suspect Fidel Castro would concur.

But hey, he had good hair, he meant well, he was a product of his era, and he gave one helluva speech. Even as he was a Navy man whose world POV was forged in WW2, nukes and all...make no mistake.

But trying to suggest these guys were more "liberal" than politicians nowadays, well, that's just bunk. It's all fun and games unless you're little George Takei getting shipped off to the desert with your folks, or you're Fidel lighting up a Cohiba!
