(25,518 posts)So, I expect you won't complain when Biden's voting record, past positions he's taken, and a whole host of questionable actions of his are brought up for debate here, right?
Like his vote for the Iraq War Resolution?
Or, the fact that Biden not only voted for the Crime Bill, but he wrote the damn thing and said by he was PROUD of it?
Or, the way Joe treated Anita Hill - today a HEROINE of the MeToo movement - during the Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings?
That's all fair game, right? Because, using for Biden the same standard you're using for Bernie, and I quote: "he's running for President. And it's not 'bashing.' It is revealing information that might affect people's decisions... Do not confuse disclosure of information as bashing. It is not. Instead, it is essential for good decision-making. If you have negative facts about other candidates, you're welcome to post them. Others are doing so."
As long as the same standards applied to Bernie also apply to all the other candidates, I'm fine with that. I think Bernie will come out MILES ahead... but, as you say, better to let the voters decide after ALL facts are known.

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!
