aren't those they same figures he claimed on the first DAY? ucrdem Mar 2019 #1
Bernie raise $6 million in the first 24 hours after he announced TCJ70 Mar 2019 #25
Your number is about what I remember, just over $6 million. nt Blue_true Mar 2019 #51
That's what his campaign said, but the FEC hasn't seen the numbers yet. George II Mar 2019 #75
The question was... TCJ70 Mar 2019 #82
The statement was: "Bernie raise $6 million in the first 24 hours after he announced" George II Mar 2019 #83
And then I linked an article stating it was the campaigns claim. TCJ70 Mar 2019 #87
He's had 3 years to sort this out, it's completely unacceptable. OnDoutside Mar 2019 #2
The 2016 election ended Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #11
He's always known he'd run again. Ergo... three years to "find" his "missing" taxes and "fix" them. NurseJackie Mar 2019 #19

Funny! Or... he fainted when Jane said "I found the tax returns!" NurseJackie Mar 2019 #102
Yes, and............? George II Mar 2019 #21
He never stopped running... comradebillyboy Mar 2019 #38
And knew all that time that the taxes would indeed be requested again. (nt) ehrnst Mar 2019 #39
2016 kept going? Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #100
This has nothing to do with the 2016 election. He knows this is a major issue for the OnDoutside Mar 2019 #47
He said he will release ten years worth of tax returns Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #49
He said he would release them before the last convention; he didn't. His honesty is the issue. LongtimeAZDem Mar 2019 #52
Again, you are stuck in 2016 Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #54
So what? He has said it before, and there's no reason to be live him. LongtimeAZDem Mar 2019 #68
"Sanders is the only candidate in history that this is demanded of." No he isn't. George II Mar 2019 #73
Well it actually ended in March MyNameGoesHere Mar 2019 #101
Sorry but that's silly to say it's a non-issue because he says he'll release them... Drunken Irishman Mar 2019 #60
Same song, different year. George II Mar 2019 #74
Yeah and Trump said he'd release his right after the audit was over. Saying and doing are different. dem4decades Mar 2019 #104
It has everything to do with 2016 Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #53
That was a separate issue. You can't accuse trump for not releasing his taxes and OnDoutside Mar 2019 #71
No he didn't. He stopped campaigning when he lost the nomination. Remember Jeff Weaver in Jul 2016? George II Mar 2019 #77
Yep, and we still haven't seen what he promised. We did see one 2-year old return (2014).... George II Mar 2019 #76
Hmmm? Where have Cha Mar 2019 #3
Good point, same old games, different year. Blue_true Mar 2019 #56

lol Cha Mar 2019 #6
You should prepare to yawn Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #50
Honest question: If this is true, why doesn't he just get this over with and show them? lunamagica Mar 2019 #55
He should not react to conspiracy theories Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #57
Conspiracy theories? Seriously? All he is asked is to show his full tax retuns for the past ten lunamagica Mar 2019 #61
The conspiracy theory is that he's intentionally hiding them Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #62
why do you think he hasn't released them yet? lunamagica Mar 2019 #63
Why isn't this being demanded of Kamala Harris? Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #65
Sanders has promised to release them for years, and he hasn't. lunamagica Mar 2019 #66
Because she has a track record of releasing her taxes FreeState Mar 2019 #95
She released one, just like Sanders Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #97
He could easily resolve your so-called "conspiracy theory" by releasing his tax returns immediately. TexasTowelie Mar 2019 #67

I can lay my hands on 7 years of returns in five minutes. ehrnst Mar 2019 #84

+1000! mcar Mar 2019 #92
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I have ONE thing to say... NurseJackie Mar 2019 #107
"React"? He's had years to prepare for this. For perspective, Elizabeth Warren released 10 years.. George II Mar 2019 #72
Warren's really the Senate leader in advocacy of economic justice and financial transparency. ehrnst Mar 2019 #85
Working on it doesn't make sense. NT WeekiWater Mar 2019 #7
It's been over two weeks since Bernie said it would be "soon". TexasTowelie Mar 2019 #9
For perspective, Elizabeth Warren released tax returns for 10 years back in AUGUST.... George II Mar 2019 #26
These are not the taxes you are looking for.. Amimnoch Mar 2019 #8
He's playing that game again. LiberalBrooke Mar 2019 #10
He has already said he would release ten Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #12
What other candidates have promised them for years? Including saying "Soon" weeks ago. ehrnst Mar 2019 #15
So you're still stuck on 2016 primaries Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #58
But promises made 3 years ago that weren't kept raises a red flag for many. George II Mar 2019 #78
Yep. ehrnst Mar 2019 #80
He released one, didn't make it to the general, so it was over Mr Tibbs Mar 2019 #88
You've got that chronology wrong, but whatever. George II Mar 2019 #91
He knew that his tax returns would be requested, for two years. ehrnst Mar 2019 #79
See post #26. And saying isn't doing. George II Mar 2019 #27
"Said he would" is different from "has done", and there is no good reason for delay JHB Mar 2019 #41

How is bashing other Democratic (and those who caucus with us) candidates constructive? Dennis Donovan Mar 2019 #29
I think you may have a different definition of 'bashing" than DU does. ehrnst Mar 2019 #30
So what? MrsCoffee Mar 2019 #31
I respect how you feel, TexasTowelie Mar 2019 #34
I certainly didn't say you can't post something... Dennis Donovan Mar 2019 #35
I post articles about all candidates whether they are positive, negative or neutral. TexasTowelie Mar 2019 #43
Fair enough. But, Bernie did release his tax returns last cycle: Dennis Donovan Mar 2019 #44
He released one year of tax returns and initially didn't release a complete return for that year. TexasTowelie Mar 2019 #45
BS is never going to release his tax returns. If BS had any intention of releasing them... NurseJackie Mar 2019 #20
Makes sense. ehrnst Mar 2019 #23
I can't trust any candidate or politician who isn't forthcoming regarding his (or her) tax returns. NurseJackie Mar 2019 #32
Especially if a candidate has known for years that their returns would be expected as POTUS nominee ehrnst Mar 2019 #33
In over a quarter century, Sanders has released two 1040s, Hortensis Mar 2019 #36
Absolutely a hypocrite Skidmore Mar 2019 #42
But zealously consistent. I don't ever expect him to Hortensis Mar 2019 #46
