Today the Sanders campaign attacked Biden on busing. But Sanders opposed busing too. [View all]

I wonder why this wasn't vetted when the initial busing controversy happened six months ago? It's only come to light now Bernie's campaign want to attack Biden on it.

One of the biggest things that sucks at two near-octogenerians being at the top is two weeks before voting starts we are relitigating stuff from when Gerald Ford was President

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