Bernie should point out that the government would spend a lot less if we ended mass incarceration and slashed the defense budget.

He already did.

Not really, and not directly enough.

Hillary is articulating her position very well on health care, tbh.

"How do the large campaign contributors influence your campaign?"
Clinton: "Uhh, well, we have a lot of small doners too!"

Seriously, this is embarrassing.

I do think Hillary has a good point on financial regulation and the need to take a broader perspective. Bernie should take her to her word on that.

I liked Sanders "Why does the _____ industry donate?" Line that he repeated with various industries. It's a very good point.

Indeed. It says a lot that Hillary has NO response to that.

Here is the proper response:
"Senator Sanders, I ran against President Obama in 2008 and found him a formidable opponent.  HE took money from the pharmaceutical industry!  HE took money from billionaires!  For heaven's sake, he took twice as much money from Wall Street as I have!  [misleading statistic, use the general election numbers]  So I ask you Senator Sanders, since you appear to be claiming that our President was bought and paid for by those industries, what did they get out of it?  What did he give them for all the money they gave him?"
Maybe she could start listing things AGAINST those industries' interests that Obama did and claiming she was partly responsible for them.

This doesn't answer the question. Is she arguing that the corporations that donated to Obama did so for no good reason? Out of the goodness of their heart? Or do they just like to waste their money?

My answer to 'why?', would be that industry donates to who they think will win.  They don't want to waste their money on a loser.

But why? Why do they feel the need to donate to the winner? This still doesn't answer the question.

Yeah, what?  Now she's saying he voted for "a similar approach."  That's a lot different.

Saying "we would like this thing to happen" (which is what a resolution is) is very different from actually voting on a major policy vote.

Sanders is not talking about what his principles are, other than it is NOT Kissinger.

And that is a pretty big f**king deal.
