When Iran Took Americans Hostage, Bernie Backed Iran’s Defenders. As Democrat Socialists condemned Khomeini’s hostage taking, Sanders stood with a communist party that condemned “Carter’s war drive against the Iranian people.”

The article later says that Sanders supported Andrew Pulley, presidential candidate of the Socialist Workers Party, who said our hostages in Iran were spies and opposed military action to rescue them.

Wish they would hold these stories until after he is the nominee.

All crossover chaos votes should go for Bernie.

Then Bernie and Buttigieg can go as a team... Butt-Burn

make no mistake: berny is for berny.

he will be bought off just like last time, only it will cost the dnc more this time--a LOT more.

then he will endorse the nominee, and his true-believers will mostly stay home.         the dumbocrap nightmare

I disagree. We live in a polarized country where any Democrat has a chance of winning the general, so I want a Democratic nominee other than Sanders or Warren.

You don't get it do of you?
The Daily Beast is a hard core Trump hating Dem site. They, together with the rest of the mainstream media are determined to kill Bernie's campaign now before Super Tuesday. They think Trump will clobber Bernie if he is the nominee. And they are probably right

Btt

I disagree.

any dumbocrap would be an unmitigated disaster.

do you really think buttgig or biden would be any better than Sanders or Warren?

their only chance of winning is backing away from the insane green new deal: I don't want them to do that.

[Bullish]

Has Bernie ever been right about anything in his entire career?

No, Comrade.

[RaceBannon]

this story came out about a month ago

[plain talk]

“We live in a polarized country where any Democrat has a chance of winning the general”

Worth repeating.

[tired&retired]

It definitely would be CW II if Bernie won.

[gibsonguy]

Boy the DNC is going all out when they a get a rat like the Daily Beast to run hit piece on Bernie. I have no doubt it’s true but that really isn’t the point

[SmokingJoe]

OK. Thing is, the mainstream media, CNN, MSN even the NET and WaPo are currently waging all out war on Bernie cause they think Trump will beat him of he is the nominee.

Pretty much. It's all about beating President Trump in November, by hook or by crook. Usually the latter.

[shanover]

Sander’s past beliefs are irrelevant because our educational system has raised a generation of stupid sh*ts who go along with or against anything if a “trigger” is pulled,enticement offered, and a emotions are pushed.

[Old Yeller]

With OBastard, we already elected a president twice who hated this country. Hey! Let’s do it again!

[Bullish]

Brainwashing our children should be illegal, but no, we sanction it.

[Rurudyne]

And when you bring up his communist associations these days people will act like it’s a Fox. Wes invention.

[StAntKnee]

Bernie gotta burn.
