of him and Clinton "We're not republicans after all." So maybe we can stop with that nonsense? I know, wishful thinking.

(3,343 posts)But the bill that President Clinton signed is not welfare reform. It does not promote work effectively, and it will hurt millions of poor children by the time it is fully implemented. Whats more, it bars hundreds of thousands of legal immigrantsincluding many who have worked in the United States for decades and paid a considerable amount in Social Security and income taxesfrom receiving disability and old-age assistance and food stamps, and reduces food-stamp assistance for millions of children in working families.

(7,315 posts)he was not running for president, I could be wrong though. Or are you using the logical fallacy of guilt by association?
Old Codger
(4,205 posts)He has no influence on her at all, if you believe that one there is a bridge I would like to show you along with some Arizona beachfront property...
Eko
(7,315 posts)she is a robot programmed by Bill Clinton and Wall Street. Has no free will. I forgot about that.
from what Sanders said that she is not a republican she obviously holds more than enough to not be a republican. Sanders holds values that quite a few mainstream republicans do also that mainstream democrats don't, gun control for one. I don't think his stance on that is bad but there it is.
Stallion
(6,474 posts)just not the best candidate
I'm not voting for him but I never use loaded adjectives to describe him
Wish all Democrats did the same

(7,315 posts)thanks for being polite. I think he is the best but both good.
edit: Stallion misspelled honorable, that's what the lol was about.

(20,453 posts)It was something. I noticed the "what do you think of this commercial" thing resulted in Bernie seeing that stupid commercial about "single issue", which backfired on Hillary, if you ask me....
But, when it was Hillary's turn to see a commercial... Well, darn, they couldn't seem to find one that was negative against her from Bernie, so they ran the Colbert thing, which was some kind of moment everyone should see!
