14. It seems dishonest to me. I can't be the only one who feels this way.

If any other candidate did something like that, the fringe left would be howling about how it lacked honestly... how it lacked integrity... how it lacked transparency.

All I'm saying is... I just don't think I can support someone who does things like that. It's just wrong. Shockingly wrong.

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

Unitemized equals "huge piles of undisclosed cash" George II Apr 2019 #11

I wonder if that has anything to do with anyone's reluctance to release their tax returns. NurseJackie Apr 2019 #15

I'm more concerned with the tens of millions of dollars that are "unitemized"... George II Apr 2019 #23

It was explained in the article. dogman Apr 2019 #25

And Hillary hasn't been a candidate for ages. namahage Apr 2019 #28

WTF has Hilary to do with Bernie's filing? dogman Apr 2019 #29

First point is that being out of contention of a race is an excuse, namahage Apr 2019 #30

The filing is an FEC requirement. dogman Apr 2019 #31

If you can't imagine it, you must have slept through 2016. MrsCoffee Apr 2019 #67

That doesn't explain why he got TWO extensions so he wouldn't have to disclose whatever pnwmom Apr 2019 #32

I think the FEC has it under control. dogman Apr 2019 #35

Or maybe he outsmarted them, because they were accustomed to candidates pnwmom Apr 2019 #43

he filed for the extentions WHILE he was a candidate JI7 Apr 2019 #34

Yes and they were granted. dogman Apr 2019 #36

the fact that he is hiding this along with his tax returns does not speak well of him as a candidate JI7 Apr 2019 #37

I'll bet Obama didn't file any reports that were not required. dogman Apr 2019 #38

Obama released his tax returns JI7 Apr 2019 #41

So did Bernie. dogman Apr 2019 #46

That was rated False at the time by Politifact. namahage Apr 2019 #47

UPDATE: As he had promised, Sanders released his full 2014 tax return on April 15, 2016. dogman Apr 2019 #50

None so blind as he that will not see. Jakes Progress Apr 2019 #42

Bernie filed financial reports. dogman Apr 2019 #48

Any excuse you can think of in a storm. Jakes Progress Apr 2019 #60

You do know he's releasing 10 years worth around the 15th, don't you? dogman Apr 2019 #61

What was he hiding for years? Jakes Progress Apr 2019 #69

We will see won't we? dogman Apr 2019 #70

Wow! Jakes Progress Apr 2019 #75

Yes, he did. Obama filed tax returns that were a CUSTOM, not a requirement, pnwmom Apr 2019 #45

Yep, he released his tax records. dogman Apr 2019 #51

The FEC filings WERE required. But he outfoxed the FEC and avoided filing them by asking for pnwmom Apr 2019 #55

And the voters are free to form their own ideas of why he avoided disclosing pnwmom Apr 2019 #44

That's why they make tin foil. dogman Apr 2019 #49

Indeed. Why on earth would he keep his word. MrsCoffee Apr 2019 #68

10 years returns, or withdraw. This smells. OnDoutside Apr 2019 #53
