Bernie Sanders may be the most liberal candidate running for president, but he said today Republicans are not his "enemies," in what seemed like a veiled jab at the Democratic frontrunner, Hillary Clinton.

"Well, as the most progressive member of the United States Senate, I obviously have strong disagreements with the Republicans on every issue," Sanders said at a news conference outside of Penn Station in New York City. "There is no issue that we don't have fundamental disagreements, but I would not use the word 'enemies' to describe a fellow American. Strong differences in opinion, opponents, I wouldn't use the word enemies."

How the hell can Hillary accomplish anything after declaring that half the nation is her enemy?

Her campaign seems to be all about her and nothing about the people of this nation.

Could she possibly be more repulsive?

in Washington. I don't know that Hillary ever mastered that skill. You do have to be tough in that city, but you can do it without declaring that half the country is filled with your "enemies". This kind of goes along with her comment about "obliterating" Iran. There are better ways to word what you want to say ...
