"I'm not really clear on what kind of jobs you've had, besides Senator," the host said.

Sanders responded that he served in the House and was mayor of Burlington, Vt., for eight years.

"Yeah, but have you ever not been paid by taxpayers?" the host asked.

[livetohike]

1. Boom! I guess he's embarrassed to talk about his past.

He probably should be.

[Squinch]

2. Bob and weave, weave and bob.... can't even answer questions that have to do with his own past.

[MarianJack]

3. Sure he's been paid by employers.

He got paid for the porn he wrote about rape & violence against women, right!?

PEACE!

[George II]

5. It was published in the Vermont Freeman, which was an "alternate" newspaper. I don't think...

...they paid their "journalists", it was kind of like those newspapers you find in the supermarkets next to the Pennysaver, etc.

Actually, I think he thought he was sending that essay to Morgan Freeman, not Vermont Freeman.

[MarianJack]

21. I read that...

...he got $35 for each story! Pretty cheap price for your convictions, but still more than $27!

PEACE!

[TwilightZone]

4. Maybe he doesn't remember.

It's been a long time. A long, long time.

But, he's an outsider, ya know.

[George II]

6. Yeah, an outsider who has been working for the "Establishment" in Washington for the last 25+ years.

[TwilightZone]

7. Yep.

[Surya Gayatri]

8. He can obfuscate and bluster, but he CAN'T hide....

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

9. He was a writer

of rape porn

[WhiteTara]

16. but that wasn't a paid gig

says someone up thread.

[caquillo]

10. He couldn't even answer the question

When he tried to resort to his stump speech slogans, they interrupted and reiterated the question, to no avail. Figures.

[Koinos]

11. Bernie had a long adolescence.

I'm not sure how capable he is of addressing the working class, if he has never been part of it. His positions are based on theory, rather than on direct experience. His relationship with life itself appears to be academic. He could hardly be called a "people person."

[savalez]

12. Sounds "establishment" to me.

[Her Sister]

13. Want more coverage! Gotta answer some inconvenient questions sometimes!

But BS is good at: "abruptly ending the interview." as per link: http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/281528-sanders-in-heated-interview-with-california-radio-hosts

[FloridaBlues]

14. Typical non answer can't go on specifics gotta stick to stump speech

[UtahLib]

15. It seems BS gets going, right out the door, when the going gets tough. eom

[SunSeeker]

17. Wonder why he didn't tout his years as a freelance writer?

[DawgHouse]

22. He's not a very good writer, I'm afraid.

[cwydro]

25. Yeah, that's pretty bad.

I would have thought he could write better than that.

[6chars]

26. omg

there are periodically "bad erotica" and "worst erotic fiction" contests. this is in a way worse than the winners.

[Thinkingabout]

18. Can't you see his library, nothing for the first forty years, at least we know

Washington chopped down the cherry tree.

[still_one]

19. well, he did get a personal invitation from the Pope, and I believe he stayed at a Holiday Inn

[NastyRiffraff]

20. He can't handle a simple question

How the hell does he expect to come up against the RNC vetting him, publicly and relentlessly? He has a short fuse and it would be embarrassing to the Democratic party. Thank Zeus he won't be the nominee, so it won't happen, as much as the Republicans want it to so they can sink their fangs into him.

[Cha]

24. How did he ever expect he could be president? Or did he think that far ahead?

We are so lucky we dodged that bullet and that we have Hillary who helped make that happen for us!

[Cha]

23. "Yeah, but have you ever not been paid by taxpayers?" the host asked. Booom!

Mahalo, Durham!

Tweeter is spot ON!

Sanders clashes with California radio hosts in interview

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/281528-sanders-in-heated-interview-with-california-radio-hosts

By Jessie Hellmann



Bernie Sanders got into a heated back-and-forth with two California radio hosts Thursday when they questioned him about his public service.


Sanders called out the hosts of the "John and Ken" show on KFI radio for interrupting him several times before abruptly ending the interview.

The interview, first reported by Buzzfeed, began with one of the hosts quizzing Sanders on his experience with creating jobs..................

"I'm not really clear on what kind of jobs you've had, besides Senator," the host said.

Sanders responded that he served in the House and was mayor of Burlington, Vt., for eight years

[Il_Coniglietto]

29. KFI?!? That's a right-wing radio station in SoCal

Someone in Bernie Sanders' campaign staff royally screwed up if they thought he'd receive a warm welcome there.

[mazzarro]

30. This is pure bull****!

So anyone that is in government whether elected or not that person has no job - at all?

Yet the same involvement in government by others is said to confer relevant experience required for higher jobs? This is a weird argument to make - and foolish argument, nonetheless.

[Walk away]

32. It's not about the content of the interview. It's about Bernie having to...

scrounge, threaten and bully for any media he can get for free. He no longer controls the message. He will have to show up and sit through anything he can get at this point.

[Walk away]

31. Now that Bernie has to go begging to the media, he can't be so picky about....

who asks the questions and what they ask anymore!

This is the down slide Bernie....enjoy the ride. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
