Both Clinton and Sanders are qualified. But the Clinton campaign did start this.

Anyone that says they didn't are uninformed or LYING. She didn't have to use the exact phrase "unqualified" to say it. And thats exactly what she did. She explained that he was unqualified by saying he hasn't done his homework on policy. Thats, of course, absurd, considering he has been legislating for decades.

But I'll repeat, if you say that her campaign didn't start with this method of attack, you are either uninformed or you ARE A LIAR.

Its just like when she tried to "otherize" Obama in 2008.

Awful campaigner she is. Hardly inspiring, hopeful, when the country wants a positive way forward. I can't imagine listening to Hillary, or dealing with her antics when she is not happy on the world stage.

This is the feeling, tired of W Bush, tired of Obama on trade, oil drilling, and now we have a real progressive democrat. I can't imagine giving that up, and feeling just the same as the last 25 years.

And the looming investigation, always when the Clinton's are involved.

Enough, is enough, is ENOUGH!

GO BERNIE!

So whatever if Hillary doesn't like Bernie's new tone too bad. She needs to get used to it because she started this crap months ago. Implications that Bernie is sexist was over the top. Now she is going for blaming dead kids on Bernie, seriously that is disgusting. I say bring on the IWR vote and her emails that explain how much she loves business opportunities in the war zones she created.
