Bernie Sanders has coddled Hillary Clinton for too long, especially
\nregarding her support for Obama’s interventionist foreign policy.<\/p>\n
At this crucial moment in the election, he needs to step up boldly and
\nembrace the strong language of Donald Trump in denouncing the
\nrecord of the former Secretary of State as well as her “obscene”
\nrelationship with Wall Street.<\/p>\n
As Paul Craig Roberts describes, Mrs. Clinton is part of a major That is totally unacceptable to decent Americans and the continued Calling Trump a fascist provides a great sound bite for those who\u00a0already hate him. But, in the quasi-fascist society we all now inhabit\u00a0as part of the Imperium that Eisenhower warned us would emerge\u00a0because of the military-industrial complex, to do so is to remain blind to\u00a0the deeper reality that is modern America.<\/p>\n In other words, we already live in a police state with constant NSA spying,\u00a0Homeland Security, NDAA suspension of habeas corpus and countless other\u00a0draconian measures.<\/p>\n Few writers are as relentless and articulate in expressing the sense of\u00a0outrage many of us feel about Pax Americana and the US quest for global\u00a0hegemony as Roberts.<\/p>\n The irony is that only Trump has consistently expressed any willingness to Sounds a little like a closet socialist to me. Yet Sanders refuses to bellow boldly While Trump suggests working with Putin, reducing US military bases, foregoing Has Bernie Sanders once ever said “Bush lied us into war” or “9\/11 may involve the I applaud his characterizations of the up-coming fund-raiser with the Clooneys as BUT, is there anything more obscene that America bombing and killing thousands of I say, no there isn’t! And I also say, Sanders needs to make crystal clear, now, that if That seems inevitable despite Sanders recent surge barring a miracle that could be the We are only a few weeks away from learning who the nominees will be. If Hillary wins, the If Sanders backs Hillary then he will align himself with the Neocons who prefer her to Trump\u00a0and are vigorously working to prevent his election. Ask yourself this, Sanders fans: “Who will deserve the label “fascist” then?<\/p>\n

\nunwillingness of Sanders to get rough with Hillary on the crucial issues
\nof America’s imperial ways only makes room for Trump to capture the
\nvote of those millions who want a stop to our endless wars.<\/p>\n
\neven address the excesses of our foreign policy during the campaign. While
\nthe rest of his Republican rivals were overt Neocons calling for more wars of
\naggression, Trump has labeled such misadventures as a waste of valuable
\nresources that could better be spent at home on schools, roads and hospitals.<\/p>\n
\nin a similar manner and coddles Hillary and the incumbent who have supported
\nUS intervention in Ukraine, Libya, Yemen, Syria, Honduras, Somalia and elsewhere
\n………..with disastrous results.<\/p>\n
\nforeign interventions, redefining our relationship with NATO and other sensible
\npolicies while enduring the wrath of the Neocons, Sanders is meek or silent on

\nhe waiting for? Or does he secretly agree? If so, does that make him the fascist?<\/p>\n
\n“obscene” as well as his demand that Hillary release what she said to Goldman Sachs
\nto earn the equally disgusting speaker fees. http:\/\/www.commondreams.org\/news\/2016\/03\/25\/oceans-16-sanders-campaign-

\ninnocent people all over the planet in wars based on lies to steal the natural resources
\nof the indigenous population for the benefit of the 1% Sanders loves to criticize?<\/p>\n
\nhe loses the nomination, he will not support Hillary in the general election. He should say
\nthat to further empower his loyal followers who will be faced with the ugly choice of
\nhaving to back Hillary if she wins.<\/p>\n
\nresult of his changing his tune in the way I suggest.<\/p>\n
\nquestion remains: What will Sanders and his followers do? If they go for Mrs. Clinton, arguably the real fascist among the candidates, then we will know a lot about who they really are and what\u00a0they really believe.<\/p>\n
