She might as well have Bill debate Bernie. I wonder what she would do as President, more wars, military coups. and raise campaign money for the party?

The same old corporate media talking heads... Whether it be the head of George Stephanopoulos or this guy, they're all asking the same tired old questions, trying to discredit or discourage Bernie in the eyes of the public, making them think that he has no chance. Bernie does a very good job in handling these questions, but I'm sure that he hismelf must be getting tired of them, and wishing that they asked him different ones. But they won't because they're not really interested in anything about Bernie's candidacy, or where he stands on the issues, except they just want his candidacy to end. So let's see how the MSM strategy on Bernie has evolved so far, and how it is evolving: 1) ignore Bernie; 2) interview him and ask him discouraging questions trying to get him to drop out of the race when they can no longer afford to ignore him, or that strategy isn't working anymore; 3) double down on the discouraging questions hoping to: a) wear Bernie down so he'll just drop out and quit; or b) discredit him in the eyes of potential voters, making them think he has no chance anyway, so why bother voting for him?; or c) both a) and b).
