(30,481 posts)The more I read the more I like him. He also seems to be getting some attacks which is making me feel a little better. With a new person at the top, I believe we will be seeing some slight changes. I do still think he is going to go slow and keep beating the drum.

(131,140 posts)I'd like to encourage people to learn about him, as many haven't done so, and the media of course does little to inform.

(62,325 posts)when he used a Super Pac to attack Bernie Sanders with one of those now infamous attack ads we are all so sick of. Didn't think he would sink to that level.
I have been told that he may not have known about it. However if that is true, he needs to do as Bernie does, inform those who support him that he is not in favor of these negative ads which do nothing to enhance the political dialogue, already deep in the mire, in this country.
He has some interesting ideas and as I said, I was happy to support him as a candidate. But the Money in Politics is going to be a major issue in this campaign, the dirty politics it generates and to see him participate in that was a huge turnoff for me and many others.

(14,524 posts)Especially when he didn't speak up that he wasn't okay with that ad, whether he can "control the superpacs" or not. His silence said consent.
