Peters Place: What is Bernie's Single Issue??

snip:

At the Democratic Presidential Primary Debate on February 11, 2016 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Secretary Clinton essentially called Bernie Sanders a single-issue candidate.

But I'm a bit confused by this message (the sixth or so message we've heard) from Clinton. Can someone please tell me what, exactly, is Sanders's single issue? Clinton didn't specify what she thought it was. And, I can't figure out which of these 63 issues (and I probably missed a few) Sanders has raised during this campaign, which I've been tracking, she was referring to:

Actually, Hillary's single issue seems to be "Vote for me because I am a woman!". Or maybe "Don't worry, I won't disappoint you because I really won't try to improve anything!".

There will be another senseless meme. Sorta like a whack-a-mole game with no prizes.

everyone can have a living wage and seniors can live in dignity without fear of preemptive wars filling the pockets of greedy billionaires so they can buy our politicians.
