I doubt it was about "people." More a response to some comments Bernie made yesterday.

On edit: See comments below.

'I am clearly far holier than thou.' Bernie's comments yesterday struck me the same way. She is responding to Bernie, not "people"

How NOT to Win Friends and NOT Influence People.

She's not going to be allowed to co-opt the word so her Third Way operatives can change the meaning of it.

She's not even close to progressive and just because she calls herself a progressive, it doesn't mean she is. She already said...she's a "Moderate and Center" <-----------NOT PROGRESSIVE.

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE
