Quote from the article linked in the op.

“ It is not good enough for somebody to say, 'I'm a woman, vote for me.' No That is not good enough.”

Sanders history with women is very similar to Gabbard and LGBQT rights. Both are on record with some of the most horrendous comments one can make about referenced topics, yet the overall history of their votes is pretty good. They put their personal feeling to the side as it conflicts with governmental influence protections.

There are quotes from Sanders about women that are not allowed on DU. It’s that bad. His voting record is not as bad.

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