Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Some history concerning the Socialist Workers Party, The Iran Hostage crisis, and Bernie Sanders [View all]ehrnst
(32,640 posts)is something that is very uncharacteristic of Senator Sanders.
I have heard his supporters say often:
"He is as constant as the North Star" and "Bernie doesn't 'evolve' because there is no reason for someone who is right to 'evolve.'
"No comment" is the only way to evade having to thread that very tricky needle.
A statement may be forthcoming that will state that he always had the best interests of the people at heart, and always did it in the very best way possible, and the way to get things done has changed, although he himself has never changed. He will not say that he had any regrets or changes of heart, nor will he comment on his activities concerning the SWP, and will say that we are GETTING DISTRACTED from FOCUSING ON THE IMPORTANT ISSUES: INCOME INEQUALITY AND MEDICARE FOR ALL!
And other's voting history on the Iraq war.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
