It turns the campaign into a propaganda production stage. Even if Fox did say it. They probably meant it differently.


But thank you for the . I will try to be a better person.

only if she receives the Democratic nomination at the 2016 Democratic National Convention,
which won't be held until the End of July, Next Year...

Until that time, I am totally and fully supporting Bernie Sanders bid for the presidency,
throughout all of the debates and primaries to come...

since Bernie and Hillary agree on everything and Bernie will not go negative, and Hillary won't have to. Bad as you'll want it!

to point out the voting record differences between himself and Hillary.

But it's not very likely that Hillary won't go "negative" on Bernie.



Just sayin...

I assure you Bernie and Hillary agree on very little when it comes to foreign and domestic policy, and that's almost certainly why the number of debates have been limited to 6 instead if 26 as there were in 2008.

Or get a TV show.

Of course, giving Bernie all that exposure would be the decent thing to do, I must say.

She'll SAY she agrees with Bernie on most things.. until the general election.

That's what democrats do, after all, during a primary.

Then they scurry back to their corporate masters for the big dance.

Bernie and Hillary don't "agree on everything" Hillary is saying what she need to in order to keep her powerful lead. She is employing the oldest trick in the book-- run left and when you win start moving to the right. But the truth is she isn't a true Democratic Party candidate. Our politics have swung so far right that we have the "far right" and the "Republican Light" parties. If you want true Democratic candidates there are a few, Bernie, Franken, Warren, Grijalva these are true Democratic Party representatives. Look at Hillary's voting don't just listen to what she is saying today. Hell, she didn't want to address the TPP until Bernie vocally went against it, and he always has, no she has to stand and the side she knows where the people stand. And she only knows this because the people responded positively to Bernie when he opposed the TPP. Don't get me wrong a Hillary President is better than any far right Republican that is running it's just that she is still Republican Light...
