LIVE RADIO NOW: Is Bernie Sanders’ candidacy toast by his old essay?

This week’s show

Is Bernie Sanders’ candidacy toast by his old essay?

This week I wrote a piece titled “Is Bernie Sanders’ candidacy toast by his old ‘misogynistic’ essay?” after Tim Murphy’s wrote an article that exposed a poorly written essay Bernie Sanders that raised the eyebrows of many.

I was slaughtered when the blog post was posted to the Join The Coffee Party Movement Facebook page. I want to discuss my perspective and hear yours.

What do you think. Let's talk about it.

What are your thoughts? Let’s talk. I will also be following our hash-tag #PoliticsDoneRight on Twitter. Give me a call.

when and if the number of people who have heard of Bernie's essay exceeds the number who have heard of Bernie.

The man writes one essay that is poor satire and the rest of his life long ideas on social justice and peace are going to be overlooked?

I'm the same age as Bernie and I said stuff back in the seventies that were probably misunderstood too.

I think Senator Sanders is the only person who can speak for this article.I do not believe he is a sexist pig ,or a racist.I believe this is the Clinton Campaign, firing shots for the" women vote".
