68. Clinton would not divulge that stuff. And she didn't have to as she beat him easily.

If you think the repugs won't though, that would be extremely naive.

It's surprising and so discouraging to me that so few people know about the tons of baggage Sanders is lugging around, and don't seem to even want to know—the Sandanista stuff, the Castro stuff, the Socialist Workers Party stuff, the Moscow honeymoon stuff, and on and on and on.

We'll get hit with a freight train of this oppo research if he gets the nomination and trump will get four more years.

People need to wake up and stop acting like it's nothing.

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

The twice elected Mayor of New York City is unvetted greenjar_01 Feb 2020 #13

Being vetted Nationally is a different kettle of fish, as they say. bluewater Feb 2020 #17

Not really greenjar_01 Feb 2020 #40

Yes really, what flys in NYC doesn't fly nationally especially this overt antagnism uponit7771 Feb 2020 #64

He got a third term! greenjar_01 Feb 2020 #74

Bernie has 40 years of speeches, comments, policies Mz Pip Feb 2020 #42

True. But what about Sanders? The candidate, not the sokesperson. robbedvoter Feb 2020 #34

Wasn't he vetted in 2016? bluewater Feb 2020 #41

Bernie has been vetted throughout the years perhaps more than any other Democrat. InAbLuEsTaTe Feb 2020 #60

Why doesn't Bernie use his energy to go after Trump instead of disparaging other Democrats? Happyhippychick Feb 2020 #35

Which democrats has he disparaged? bluewater Feb 2020 #43

Mike Bloomberg, per the thread we're posting on Happyhippychick Feb 2020 #44

That wasn't Bernie Sanders. That was Symone Sanders. bluewater Feb 2020 #45

Maybe you should have put "Symone" in your thread title instead of tricking people. BlueStater Feb 2020 #53

The OP is clearly about Symone Sanders. bluewater Feb 2020 #56

It's not him who's doing it. It's his movement. greenjar_01 Feb 2020 #46

That's from 2016. Didn't Clinton vet Sanders in 2016? bluewater Feb 2020 #66

Clinton would not divulge that stuff. And she didn't have to as she beat him easily. brush Feb 2020 #68

She vetted him, but kept almost all of it to herself for fear of splitting the party maximusveritas Feb 2020 #69
