44. He'll have to release them for it to be "good enough".

believe Bernie that he'll release his returns soon enough...
He'll have to release them for it to be "good enough".

that won't be good enough... go ahead, say it again!!
Gladly! Happily! Loudly! Repeatedly!

Here goes... listen up! He keeps making excuse after excuse and we have delay after delay. THAT is "not good enough". The lame EXCUSES are "not good enough" and completely unacceptable for anyone who wants to be the leader of this nation.

I have higher standards. I won't settle for delays and excuses. I won't enable those who want to hide their tax returns. Instead, I'll continue to point out the promise made but never kept. I'll continue to remind everyone that broken promises and absurd delays are "not good enough". They never were, and they never will be.

Here's the thing... We deserve full and complete transparency from all of our candidates. That includes Bernie. No more excuses. No more delays.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
