Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumLook who campaigned to defeat Scott Walker in 2011 recall in Wisconsin
The Scott Walker who has made it difficult for people to vote--the Scott Walker who has cut education at all levels including support for the UW system. The Scott Walker who turned down federal money to expand Medicaid. The Scott Walker who has done everything in his power to destroy the Unions in Wisconsin...
(Note as Secretary of State in 2011, Secretary Clinton did not participate in any political campaigning--traditionally a Secretary of State does not make partisan campaign appearances).
But where was Bernie? He didn't campaign for the Democratic nominee, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.
But I do recall that he did call for a primary challenge to President Obama in 2012: Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders continues to argue that a Democratic primary challenge to President Obama would be good for democracy and for the Democratic Party.

I well remember those protests against Walker and in support of unions in 2011--but where was Bernie?

(51,664 posts)Sanders was never a Democrat and continually bashed Democrats until he realized he needed their help to run for President.

I know anyone can join the Democratic Party. Is there no mechanism for kicking someone out of our party? It's been infiltrated by those who wish to see it harmed in their Quixotic adventure for legalized pot and free college.
