National Nurses United is an independent PAC that represents the political voice of nurses.

That's a problem how?

The nurses superPAC was not incorporated to support a specific party, they chose to support Bernie Sanders and could switch at any time so long as it was done according to their corporate bylaws and incorporation documents. The PAC was created to promote political candidates that the union believes will further their goals. They chose Sanders and is supporting him -- but that could change.

Contrast that with Hillary superPACs that specifically were incorporated solely to support Clinton and that money can only be used in that manner.

Anytime Sanders doesn't act like a corporatist Democrat, he is attacked as if that is a bad thing.

Breathing is contributing to greenhouse gases ... so you might as well be a Chinese coal powered generating station.
Jay walking is a crime ... you should be sitting in a jail cell next to Manson.
Running with scissors is dangerous .... M.A.D.D. should start a campaign, and the police should put p random check points.
Claiming those pants don't make my ass look fat is lying ... might as well be claiming that you had to dodge sniper fire in Bosnia.
