Nov 2015

We go after issues and where the candidate claims to be on any given day.

Most h crap on this site has little to do with Bernie and where he stands against the onslaught of lies, memes and attacks on the people you think surround him. He is pretty decent. He has more great votes and stands on the issues than h.

How many times do you need to see the graph where it lays it all out.

But no, there is such a cult of personality with h.
