Bernie Sanders hits Hillary Clinton’s ‘evolution’ on tough issues

Democratic presidential candidate Bernard Sanders on Sunday said that nomination rival Hillary Rodham Clinton’s “evolution” on issues such as gay marriage, marijuana and the Keystone XL oil pipeline raise questions about her leadership.

“The issue is, who is prepared under difficult circumstances, when it’s not necessarily popular, to make decisions which are the right decisions rather than 20 years later say, ‘Well, you know, maybe I was wrong or maybe I got to rethink that,’” Mr. Sanders said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“What people want to know is who has leadership,” the senator said.

your view to match what your opponent believes, constantly follow what that opponent says with nearly identical stances after finding out that the people prefer it, and living up to the nickname weather vane, you are a follower, not a leader.

a question of leadership, I prefer "good judgement".
Imo, she has lacked in that considerably.
