2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Thank you Bernie Sanders For Running Such A Positive Campaign & Continuing To Do So. [View all]
From the beginning Bernie has run an incredibly positive campaign. He has consistently refused to be drawn into negative personal attacks on his opponents.
Even after the David Brock smear attempts, many of them exposed, he continued to keep his focus on the issues.
Even after Hillary personally led one of the worst, most despicable personal attacks I have ever seen in any campaign against an opponent, he continued to focus on the issues.
I hope Hillary will tone down the smears against one of the most ethical and issues focused candidates we have seen in a long time.
One of the reasons I did not support her in 2008 was the awful negative attacks her campaign launched against Obama even to the point of an email going out from her campaign playing into the playing into the Right Wing meme that Obama was a 'Muslim Terrorist'.
I know it must be hard for Bernie NOT to respond to some of the awful smears generated from that right wing smear monger David Brock, the man who tried to destroy Anita Hill, yet he has refrained from doing so.
To exploit dead children to attack an opponent is probably one of the lowest campaign tactics any of us remember.
Hillary, who approved the sale of Remington arms to Saudi Arabia now being used in the awful brutal war in Yemen. owes Bernie Sanders an apology.
Meantime I want to thank Bernie once again for refraining from stooping to that level, I would probably lose all respect for him if he did.
Go Bernie, Onto the Convention and the Nomination.
