Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumNow the Bernie folks are quoting an attack by Ralph Nader on HRC
In GD-Primaries:
"Ralph Nader: Hillary Clinton is a Militarist & Corporatist"
My response to this was, "says the man who helped make G.W. Bush president."
Like I said before I think that many of Bernie's supporters here are not democrats, but people who have supported guys like Nader in the past because they believed the Democratic nominee wasn't pure enough.

(15,438 posts)Gore on 2000 and Kerry in 2004. He's a traitor to this country.
To paraphrase Bernie Sanders, when you take money from special interests, they're going to want something in return. Well, Nader gave them a YUGE return for their monetary support - G.W. Bush and everything he unleashed on this country, including but not limited to, unjustified wars, 9/11, Roberts, Alito, the gutting of the VRA, the making constitutional that money is speech, the catastrophic economy - just to name a few. Nader, in his arrogance, was instrumental in that, and it's why I soured quickly on Sanders. Sanders supporters can thank Nader for that.

(30,058 posts)Sanders name to the quote. Sanders has voted for military action and he has corporation ties, what is the difference.
I am not hearing a lot about Goldman Sachs these days.
