(33,982 posts)I can't tell you how to feel about him, or what he did or didn't do in the past. That's not for me.
I take issue with your claim that Hillary is the only candidate that "Only she digs into that.". Sanders has been critical of the president over issues like his hopes that he could sit down and work out a deal with republicans. That's not disrespect. And he flipped his shit in September when Trump called the President a foreigner. So it's not like he's disrespected the president directly, or sat back and passively watched others do it when he had a voice to say something about it. He's done it over his career. Public record. When so many other white people did nothing, he stepped up and tried to do something. At the same era when Hillary was working for Barry Goldwater, who voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act. (I don't hold that against her directly, we all change over time, and she was looking for political/legal relevant employment at the time. But it DOES speak to her RECORD in comparison to Bernie.)
You like Hillary, fine. You prefer her contributions to issues that are important to you, over Sanders, your right. I don't question it. But when you make claims like that, others will comment on what they see as true or not true from different vantage points than your own, and with data points you may or may not have considered or dismissed.
