(6,444 posts)1. yes! good questions! and wow!
So whats the issue? The Sanders, Cruz and Kasich campaigns have all distributed what they claim are tax returns; Kasich for seven years, Cruz for four, and Sanders for just one year, 2014.
But those proclaimed disclosures were neither accurate nor honest. None of those candidates has released even a single tax return.

What they made public instead was merely a summary known as IRS Form 1040. That form is no more a tax return than the Preamble is the Constitution.

The FULL returns. A Form 1040 is not a tax return. What are you hiding?
Why are their different standards.....Hillary has been scrutinized, harassed, abused.........accused.......why don't the other candidates have to come forth with this information?
