that you do NOT even NEED to defend it. It is there, for all who do not have an agenda, and who are fearful for their own candidate's diminishing chances, to see.

I look at those threads, and you have to understand that this attempted and already FAILED smear is a 'Talking Point' intended to attempt to smear one of the candidates with the best record on Civil Rights we have seen in a long time, and just LAUGH.

Please do not leave because of the few who choose to LIE about Sanders. Those lies will be evicerated as the campaign goes on, as have all the other failed attempts to try to stop his momentum.

Remember that the reason they are doing this is because they cannot TALK POSITIVELY about their OWN candidate.

Bernie is so far above their attempts to smear and lie that he just keeps rising about them while the splutter and spew the bought and paid for lies to NO AVAIL.

When you see these few attempts, thrash them and write a positive OP about your candidate, because you CAN. There is so much that is positive about Bernie we could write OPs all day long trying to show all of his positives.


And remember, he is going to WIN because he is the right person for this job right now.

His record on Civil Rights is unassailable. So just roll your eyes and ignore those who clearly ARE desperate and focus on the victories and the elimination of all the other feeble attempts they've tried up to now.
