"I'm sorry we can't return the favor. Your continued use of the same insurance company scare tactics that were used against the Affordable Care Act is truly disheartening."

Bernie 2016 supporter here. Weaver never bothered to expand Bernie’s base beyond his core supporters. He just threw out hot-headed “red meat” to people who already supported Bernie. Pretty bad strategy for a campaign manager imho.

I thought it was a good strategy that the Sanders campaign was keeping Weaver in the background this time. He’s a good friend to Bernie, but not great when it comes to doing what would help Bernie expand his base and win the nomination.

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