Sen. Bernard Sanders on Friday said “of course” 2016 Democratic presidential rival Hillary Clinton is qualified, two days after Mr. Sanders ticked off a list of reasons why he didn’t think the former secretary of state was qualified to be president.

“Here’s the truth: I’ve known Hillary Clinton for 25 years. I respect Hillary Clinton — we were colleagues in the Senate,” Mr. Sanders said in a town hall on NBC’s “Today” show. “And on her worst day … she would be an infinitely better president than either of the Republican candidates.”




She’s qualified? he was asked.

“Of course,” he said. “But the point is I would hope that we get away from these attacks — which, by the way, the media likes very much — and start focusing, maybe we can do that today, on the real issues that impact the American people.”

Mr. Sanders said Wednesday evening at a rally in Philadelphia that Mrs. Clinton had been saying lately she thinks he is “not qualified” to be president..........

1. No, according to Sanders..she wasn't qualified.. everyone knows he said it.. so it's not "of course"

with him.. it's, he saw all he backlash from his doubling down and his clueless advisors said he better change tactics NOW.

The flip flops are a nice touch, rivers~

2. I know. That vile comment will stick to him like thick tar. As it should.

[Cha]

5. the flip flops are

an unpleasant reminder of the 2012 election.. one writer wrote volumes on mitt's flips and his etch-a-sketches.

8. I pouched them. like I do with lots of posters.

9. The binders full of women is still my favorite WTF? moment of any recent election.

[Cha]

10. I know, huh?! LOL.. who can hear or see "binders" without thinking of

mitt and his binders full of women?

[Her Sister]

3. LOL!

Aha!

4. It should have been handled better for sure. Being diplomatic unfortunately

is the fabric of being a constructive leader in the USA as well as outside the USA. Knowing how the country and the world works is another importance as well.

Also as a leader it is sometime prudent to be humble.

6. Ok, I'm getting confused.

Which one is Camp Weathervane?

[brer cat]

7. I don't know how much luck he will have

walking this back. Jumping into the playground name-calling made him seem like a petulant child, and did nothing for his image as Mr. Purity.

11. On Her Worst Day?

learn how to STFU when making a half-ass apology.

[FloridaBlues]

12. OMG are the sanders people out on every tv channel today

Doing s bit of damage control
It must have been all the women accross this country leaving his support behind and the sound of high heels walking away

[Treant]

13. Some of them were in flats.

And some were male. This cost him across a lot of demographic groups, particularly as they compared his experience with hers and asked, "So what characteristic of yours makes you think you're more qualified? Hmmm?"

[Cha]

14. And, Hillary moved on yesterday.. the President even came out and said she was the Best

qualified. So, BS did that.. he got Obama to come out for Hillary once again.

16. It's been a while since the flip-flops have endorsed anyone
