'Bernie Sanders' Gets Some MSNBC Time in the Morning



Starts off a bit more on Clinton but moves to the Bernie movement from there, about his message, his lifelong beliefs and his consistency of issues.

The hosts are critical of Clinton for just now 'finding her voice' after so many decades of political life, being in the public square, and actively running major campaigns. 'What does she stand for? What does she believe?' questions are thrown out. The consistency-factor is what leads the story forward to Sanders.

The panel discusses how it is more accurate to say that America has finally come to Bernie's positions, rather than he has shifted his opinions to meet up with public opinion, or to answer to a focus group.

Incredible polling? Really? No shit? I'm not surprised in the least bit. 22 points!!!! Go Bernie, Go!!!!

Although they did give him "some" airtime here, they still don't get it. Big Big mistake. And the name calling? He's cranky? Warts and all? OMG, what the hell is wrong with the media?

Maybe they can spend some time explaining what a democratic socialist really is, so we can get the other 48 states on board.

This is more proof that the 1% owns the media. They cant avoid the truth any more.

Feel the BERN, baby!!!!

They're finally recognizing Bernie's message and appeal, somewhat while completely deriding Hillary which makes me skeptical.
John Heilman with the Bernie is 'cranky ..with warts, criticizes the media (us)' , will work for any politician or campaign. DC Hustler For hire. He co-produced the movie 'Game Change' about Palin, his claim to fame. Harold Ford, jeeze. I once tried to follow this program but it became too Right for me like MSNBC now.

makes me sick! Talk about a DINO. Otherwise, not bad exposure for Bernie = best part was film clips of his crowds.
