Jane Sanders on CNN a few minutes ago..

Very likeable..well spoken

- We don't do negative politics
- Trump speaks to the discontent of the middle class like Bernie but that's where the similarity stops
- We didn't like what Trump said about Hillary
- We don't send people to Trump rallies

More Bernie and Trump

Trump just called Bernie a communist.

Bernie responded by calling Trump a pathological liar.

It may be smart strategy for both of them to keep it up, it fires up both bases. Look for more of it.

Trump Event Violence: My Theory

Corporate interests benefiting from free trade deals hired professional agitators to paint Trump as racially divisive and pro-violence and Sander's supporters as violent rabble. Trump and Sanders are the two biggest threats to the offshorers.

Not that Trump didn't give them an opening with xenophoblc statements and statements threatening protestors at past events. Those gave them an opening, but if you want to know who was behind this follow the money.

Not Hillary, not Bernie, not Rahm, not Cruz. Corporate interests massaging the debate in their favor.

Not saying they were all paid, but there are ways to catalyze these things.

Incite a Riot at Trump Event and Chant "Bernie"....

I smell a dirty trick.

Wayne County (Detroit)

10% in
Sanders 54%, Clinton 45%

If this holds, it suggests northern African Americans are voting differently from those in the South, which would be a game changer.

CNN: Bernie ahead in MI with 1% in

52-47%

Michigan Union Members..

could contribute to disparities between polling and actual votes.

The union may back Hillary because they don't want to offend the likely winner but be telling the rank and file to say one thing to pollsters but to send a message and vote Sanders.

Serious Question

Should Hillary's time spent as first lady of Arkansas and the U.S. be considered relevant experience or a hiatus in her resume?

Are older professional women likely to discern this differently than men and millenials?

No flaming please, just honest opinions.
