Of course he does ... divide and conquer
Sanderss recent swipe against former Vice President Joe Biden has angered Democratic party officials, who are accusing the onetime Democratic presidential candidate of refighting a bitter primary season that ripped the party in two.
The independent senator from Vermont has also infuriated supporters of Tom Perez, a top contender for Democratic National Committee (DNC) chairman, after an unprovoked attack against the former Labor secretary.
Sanders, who backs Perez rival Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) for DNC chairman, has shaken up a race that has until now featured few fireworks.
The DNC campaign changed this week after Biden endorsed Perez for chairman. Sanders let loose, saying that its time to move beyond the failed status-quo approach of Biden and Perez.
