10 reasons Clinton is a weak candidate

https://www.opensecrets.org/pres16/contrib.php?id=N00000528&cycle=2016&type=f&src=c

how could he, this is federal campaign donation - he hasn't be elected yet - these are for possible future considerations.

The money came from the organizations' PACs; their individual members, employees or owners; and those individuals' immediate families. At the federal level, the organizations themselves did not donate, as they are prohibited by law from doing so.

Employees gave individual contributions.

why would individuals associate their donations to their employee? did you with boeing? This is backdoor way for corps to have their branding associated with a candidate and Bernie accepted/
 
Huh, I haven't seen him rail against those companies. What positions did he take against them?

Bernie has never spoken out against outsourcing and foreign trade ? How many manufacturing jobs does Apple employ in the US? How much foreign product does Amazon bring in?
 
Yes, it is required by law.

sorry, i did not know that.

However, corporations could still easily donate discretionary funds through a PAC without disclosing their identity, happens all the time.

Bernie takes funds for apple or people associated with Apple Inc.

You are wrong here. Bernie has taken money from local business people in Vermont like Ben and Jerry's, and unions, but go take a look at his campaign finance record. It is clean. You can't link corporate money Bernie took to a vote. Ben and Jerry's doesn't have a whole lot of congressional interests.
Dat ice cream special interest lobby.

I think you're confusing policies with companies.
And I think your confusing imports with exporting jobs.
Was Amazon even a company when NAFTA was signed?
Nice try, tho.

Are you seriously trying to say a company that practices the policies the Bernie speaks out against is free from falling under the umbrella of issues bernie's is supposedly against?

Are you blind to how foreign imports reduces domestic jobs?

What does Amazon's est date have to do with it? They benefit from WTO - and will from TPP; what does Canada or Mexico have to do with them bringing in foreign goods not manufactured in the US from Asia?


All moot points now now that thankfully he's not going to win.

Not blind at all, but your must be blind to not see that Sanders is not anti-American companies and he's not anti-trade. He's anti-America policy that cater to these companies at the cost of the poor and middle class. There is a difference, but I wouldn't expect you to acknowledge it after your weak attempt to paint Sanders as shockingly hypocritical.

He is absolutely against trade.

He is against any company who is simply working within the parameters of globalization. Americans directly support this by buying products that come from trade at the cost of the american manufacturing sector. He has no plan to combat the increase in living by implementing his trade policies and no plan to combat other countries levying the hell out of the US on the raw materials they would need to manufacture domestically.

Luckily, he lost the DEM nomination.
 
Oh her political financing definitely is in the hands of big business.

But also, unions.

This is what I don't get. I look at a Paul or a Trump, and I see the lesser of two evils. You look at Bernie, and see the worst of two evils. I don't get that.
 
So he thinks America should be a 100% export country?
Sanders is not anti-trade, he's anti-disasterous trade deals.



Again, hes anti trade, look at his voting history.- he has no methodology to bring manufacturing back to the US without raising the cost of living and ensuring other countries do not levy the US.

He talks ad nauseam about job loss, show where he discusses american consumption and the pursuit of cheap retail.


Again, thankfully he wont win.

Because i come from a household that makes 1% money and a job that is dependant on foreign trade.
