14. You think she was lying about working closely with him on an issue?

She said it in a genuine way with a smile. She didn't say she was best friends with him but said she likes and works with him closely.

According to the attack team yesterday it was impossible for her to have worked with him closely. It is the exaggeration only in the purposes of a smear and echo chamber on something that they all know better that should not be part of our discourse as Democrats.

I showed that people have worked with him for years. And I am sure that some don't like him but its pretty obvious that more like him and its probably the same proportion as every candidate in terms of people likeing or disliking them. I also respect but don't agree with some arguments on electability or policies. But such concerns are not unique or a fact to Bernie. All of the candidates have arguments against their electability and have problems if you want to focus on it. The real point is support your candidate don't bash other candidates.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
