in Bernie's ad campaign. She kicks ass, pro-Bernie, without ever mentioning any 'opponents' names..

I saw some of it where some Hillary supporters were calling her a traitor and stuff. Not exact words. Some really appalling stuff. I didn't see it all because I didn't want to sit there and keep sifting through twitter. But got the impression it was the kind of thing that if Bernie supporters had done the same thing it would have been a huge scandal.


But most of the reaction was positive.

Doesn't she 'know her place'?

Very revealing, but not very surprising.

Gotta love it when random Hillary supporters on twitter claim to be spokesperson for how "black people" are supposed to think and act.

It was crazy on there. But nobody made a scandal about it for some reason.
