have adopted the right wing smear tactics that we have seen since Bill Clinton took office. Watergate, TravelGate, Vince Foster, Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi, and the email server. They use these tactics of "not trustworthy" because they know that it has been an incessant dog whistle to the right wing. I thought Sander's was above this, but he's just another curmudgeon that can't stand that a woman is going to be President of this country. Many people can't handle that idea, just like they couldn't handle the fact that we, as Democrats nominated a black man and he became the first African American President. I don't know what is going to happen to this board once Hillary takes the nomination, probably a mass exodus back to Free Republic where they have all come from.
