(14,647 posts)As well you are using tactics of "Look over there!" We've seen that tactic used all too often.
But nice trying to help paint Sanders himself as being the same person that posted that OP with the pamphlets. The OP did not claim "ONE poster on DU is causing MASSIVE DISRUPTION". They accused one of the candidates themselves. Personally I think, the OP you linked to worded the title wrong out of ignorance rather than subterfuge. Using the word "voted" instead of "supported".
But unwilling to go on the record as supporting something is kinda telling too don'tchathink?
Anyways, I thought I'd check out the people that put out those pamphlets.

They rank Democrats on a progressive scale, of those that have signed their pledge for working for issues like medicare for all, minimum wage increase, etc.. Beto is far from the bottom, rated at 25% based on his willingness to commit to certain progressive goals:

Have no fear though there are others much less eager about social progress:

Personally I'd be stoked with any of the candidates, Beto included. Even with his non commitment to important issues. There is no reason to lie about one of our candidates causing "massive disruption"
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
