I said as much but that is a common perception.

Being a CT tech she had done procedures on patients from Canada and that was her proof.

7,000 turn out to see Bernie in Alabama!

7,000 come out to see his commie ass in a Red State Hell Hole. That's pretty damned impressive IMO.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Thousands of people packed into an auditorium here on Monday night for a Martin Luther King Day rally held by Senator Bernie Sanders that at times felt like a boisterous football game.
Quote:
About 5,700 people were at the event at Boutwell Auditorium, and another 1,400 people outside watched it from an overflow area on large televisions.

Even RNC is pulling for Sanders. An attack ad by Karl Roves group against Hillary in Iowa.
Quote:
“Hillary rewarded Wall Street with a $700 billion bailout, then Wall Street made her a multi-millionaire,” a narrator in the ad says. “Does Iowa really want Wall Street in the White House?”

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/ar...bernie-sanders
Now who really bailed out Wall Street again?

Karl Rove practices the scorched earth principle and truth be damned. Why does the RNC prefer Bernie over Hillary? The commie label? I would expect most independents to prefer Bernie to Hillary or am I going totally obtuse here. I don't like Hillary as a candidate because I don't trust her as to who she is or what she stands for. I have been consistent on this from the very beginning. She is not a qualified candidate, say like Mitt Romney.

I'll tell you what I think. I think he's running the same play as he did in 2004 when they pretended like they wanted Howard Dean. And the stupid Dems fell for it and nominated Zero Charisma Kerry. I think Howard Dean would have been a much stronger candidate against George W. Bush than Lurch was. I think the one they want is Hillary.

Of course they want Hillary, who has tons of baggage and if there is not enough, there is always WJC and his escapades. Then there is Benghazi and her personal email server; true or not these are incendiary topics and I can just imagine the Fright Wing Talking heads salivating for Hillary to run.
