Mahalo, betsuni!
Therein lies the risk that Booker identifies for the Democrats, that not only is very little gained from this line of attack, it also might embitter voters toward other candidates who fail the test. And as Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders demonstrated Thursday night, that risk extends to Warren.
Seconds after Warren and Pete finished up, Sanders swooped in to boast that he is the only candidate up here that doesnt have any billionaire contributions, which includes Warren. Her current presidential campaign, not her old pre-pledge Senate campaign, has accepted donations at or near the $2800 individual contribution limit from at least six billionaires.

If by that you mean the voters chose him...you are correct. He is the front runner.

If I were Bernie Sanders, I wouldn't try to change the subject to climate change.

No candidate on that stage has a real clear solution to the rise of white supremacy.

Probably the same as his general approach; quit fanning the flames of partisanship and restore civility

I think he and other candidates would say stop igniting and enabling and legitimizing it. Biden
