He said she is not qualified because:

"...she is, through her super PAC, taking tens of millions of dollars in special interest funds. I don't think you are qualified if you get $15 million from Wall Street through your super PAC."

"I don't think you are qualified if you have voted for the disastrous war in Iraq."

"I don't think you are qualified if you've supported virtually every disastrous trade agreement, which has cost us millions of decent paying jobs."

"I don't think you are qualified if you supported the Panama free trade agreement, something I very strongly opposed and which, as all of you know, has allowed corporations and wealthy people all over the world to avoid paying their taxes to their countries."

Hope that helps.

saying he was unqualified so the whole thing is a false premise.

Imagine that.. berniesanders starting off with a false premise. Shocking I know.

Does it really come down to the fact that she is a woman?

If that is true, then how could any progressive woman vote for him?

I don't know about y'all, but a guy who had to become a politician because no one else would hire him isn't qualified to be president either.
