We are all amazed at your abililty to consider all the facts presented in an OP before presenting your opinion.

Reminds me of a Colbert line: events may change, this man's opinion never will.

I'm not sitting through a 4 min video for something so silly that has nothing to do with the issue. A debate is not the equivalent of some half bit staffer making some snarky comment about one of the most accomplished women in the world.

The Clinton Peanut Gallery never misses an opportunity to call Bernie a sexist.

They have no credibility regarding their hair-on-fire accusations of sexism. They tried to do this to Bernie in Iowa.

But seriously, let's all listen as HRC supporters call Bernie Sanders a sexist and then let's all pretend that soon we'll all be sitting under the unity umbrella singing kumbaya and braiding each other's hair.

I couldn't help but notice the exchange about considering others for VP / SOS, and how similar it was the Sanders' staff's that got them in trouble this past fall. This shows that the outraged accusations of sexism were manufactured smears. Unfortunately, I was a few months late in knowing about such a great counterexample to the Bernie = sexist meme.
