http://berniepost.com/2015/09/daniel-craig-comes-out-in-support-of-bernie-sanders/Craig made a contribution of roughly $50,000 to Americans Socially United, a PAC which claims to be supporting Senator Bernie Sanders presidential bid.
The discovery was made by the Center for Public Integrity, which released its findings in a report on Wednesday.
Bernie Sanders is a strong opponent to super PACs and his campaign counsel sent a letter to Cary Lee Peterson, the leader of the PAC, asking for it to remove all suggestions that it was somehow connected to the Bernie 2016 campaign. Peterson changed the name of the PAC from Ready for Bernie 2016.
