When asked why he gave a glowing recommendation to a teacher he was trying to fire for incompetence. It was his way of dismissing that he could fudge putting his signature on something he didn't believe to be true and still be believed during a legal hearing.

Got it on video tape, he didn't prevail.

a local indigenous activist, Clyde Bellecourt, shouted and filibustered for nearly 5 minutes. Everyone there (including CLyde) knew that Bernie was on a tight time schedule as he had another event to get to. Bernie did his best to hear out Clyde and give him the best answer that he could in the remaining 20 seconds. Clyde did not get thrown out. He had been shouting and "not having an actual discussion".

... he represented the wishes of his constituents in a rural state with a long history of hunting. I don't hunt anymore, but I used to, and I'm still an expert marksman. And I despise Wayne LaPierre and how he has perverted what was once a responsible sportsman's organization.

I am a Vermonter, and I'll tell you why you should vote for Bernie: He is a good and honest person who has devoted his life to working and speaking on behalf of regular people, not working to protect filthy rich sociopaths from answering for their crimes. Hillary has proven that she is not a good and honest person. Given her history, I am astonished that seemingly intelligent people are taken in by, "What are you gonna believe? Me, or your lying eyes?" rhetoric.

It is Hillary's campaign that finds obscure votes and distorts them. They lie and distort everything. She even trotted her own daughter out to lie about Bernie's healthcare. I wonder if a mother is proud when she sees her daughter misrepresent an issue on the big stage, just like mommy taught her?
Bernie just gets up there and talks about the issues. All Hillary has, just like Trump, is to say she can do it much better, without really telling us how. And then each week trot out surrogates to lie about Bernie's record. Now, that's class.

Continue to support a “public option”—and work to build on the Affordable Care Act to make it possible. As she did in her 2008 campaign health plan, and consistently since then, Hillary supports a “public option” to reduce costs and broaden the choices of insurance coverage for every American. To make immediate progress toward that goal, Hillary will work with interested governors, using current flexibility under the Affordable Care Act, to empower states to establish a public option choice.
