Demanding a higher standard from Sanders
seems to be rife. And it's wrong.
Had Bernie made the comment about young black men in hoodie that HRC made, it would have caused a major shit storm. Had he uttered the line all lives matter, we'd still be hearing about it.
I believe all three of the relevant dem candidates care about racial justice. And I believe Bernie gets it on a visceral level due to his background, record and history. I think he's handling both legitimate criticism and unfair attacks quite well, with compassion and dignity.
Saying he doesn't get it, doesn't handle it well and holding him to a higher standard, continuously moving the goalposts, is contemptible, obvious bullshit. And it stinks to high heaven.
Blah blah blah oh racist one.

The fact that saying "All lives matter" is a faux pas for you leftists idiots is why you shouldn't be in charge of anything bigger than a lemonade stand, and I still wouldn't trust you with that.
