How Bernie Sanders undercuts Hillary is he points out the facts.

[Bubzer]

It's a well known and accepted fact; Politicians are influenced through corporate donations. That influence could be in form of helping a would-be politician successfully get elected, or financing a primary competitor.

As a direct result, politicians have necessarily had a quid-pro-quo relationship with their donors. This is nothing new... and is recognized as a major (if not THE major) issue of our time.

Enter, a recent complaint from Hillary about Bernie; that he was getting personal with his criticisms:

What he’s saying is that Mrs. Clinton is compromised by dint of accepting six-figure speaking fees from major banks. He’s suggesting she is in Wall Street’s pocket, beholden to powerful banks. Isn’t that an attack on her integrity?

The answer is a simple: No.

Hillary is engaged in the business-as-usual method of funding for her campaign... which is to reach out a hand to corporations for money.

For Bernie to take a dim view of that action, isn't personal... in fact, there's nothing personal about it. Hillary has chosen a funding method that is well known to be considered a compromising source. That was her choice... not his. Her choice of funding source is what's reflecting negatively on her integrity... not Bernie's choice to be anti-corporate money.

I'll give Hillary a lot of credit for being able to generate considerable funds.
At issue, is where she's getting it from.

1. Shhh... the American public isn't supposed to know the facts (the MILLIONS in "speaking fees).

Her advocate was on TV nervous as heck. They DO NOT want all of this information out there. But Americans have a RIGHT to know.

2. Hillary's own actions attack her integrity.

You can't flip-flop on issues right before an election or debate, and claim you have integrity.
You can't insist you dodged sniper fire when video shows the opposite, and still expect others to think you are honest.
You can't accept millions in donations and "speaking fees" before or after taking actions favoring the donors, and still be incorruptible.

No one can impugn the integrity of someone who demonstrates none.
