2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Brilliant Bernie - Hillary Is Not Qualified [View all]pdsimdars
(6,007 posts)91. No, he forgot us.
He appointed the very people who pushed for the deregulation of Wall Street. . .HE did that. It wasn't congress. He did not fight for progressive values but appointed corporate conservatives.
He would not allow anyone in the initial meetings about health care to argue for single payer.
He said he would re-negotiate NAFTA because it was so horrible. He forgot all about that.
He told labor he'd get them their card check and they would be involved in any trade deal negotiations.
All these things were up to him and HE DID NOTHING on them.
Don't whine about the congress and the Republicans, HE did not pursue the agenda he campaigned on.
