In reply to the discussion: What Bernie said in June of this year about Black Lives Matter. Did the hecklers know? [View all]TM99
(8,352 posts)at Sanders past then they feel they will be safe from a close search of Clinton's past.
His is one of consistency, congruency, and real leadership on issues that few would support at the time (LGBT rights and Jesse Jackson come immediately to mind!)
Clinton on the other hand has a past full of lies (Bosnian snipe fire), inconsistencies, incongruencies, and political opportunism.
Honestly I will never know if Clinton supported Bush's little war because she agreed with PNAC or because she thought it would be political safe and expedient to support war.
The same is true for LGBT marriage rights. Did she really believe that bullshit about God, man & woman, and traditional marriage or was she simply pandering to get the votes she needed and wanted.
