nije teško osporiti. razlika je jedino u tome što ti žarko želiš da veruješ da je Sanders lepši i bolji.


mogući nepotizam? Džejn Sanders je popostavljena na čelo nekakve službe koja se bavila nuklearnim otpadom u Vermontu, mada nije jasno da je imala kvalifikacije za poziciju. na čelo Burlington koledža je postavljena, između ostalog, jer se verovalo da ima veze gde treba. Hanter Bajden je fino koristio to što ima veze gde treba.

moguća korupcija? radio u korist vojne industrije u matičnoj državi, i zaposleni u vojnoj industriji su mu bili među najvećim donatorima. kao što Bajden radi u korist kreditnih kompanija i dobija donacije. ali je Bajden korumpira, a Sanders čist?

muvanje sa donacijama? neprofitna organizacija koju je osnovao koristi rupe u zakonu da plasira velike donacije. za razliku od (super)PAC-ova, mogu da prikrivaju identitet donatora jer su neprofitni. svi se snalaze kako znaju, i muvaju gde mogu.

principijelnost? na prvim izborima za senatora je bio jako za kontrolu oružja, izgubio jer je Vermont lovačka sredina. od tada je jedan od viđenijih ne-republikanaca koji se protivi jakim merama kontrole oružja. svi to rade, menjaju stavove u skladu s potrebama.

The then-congressman from Vermont made the comments during a news conference in which he explained his support for the now-controversial 1994 crime bill. His remarks, video of which was obtained by CNN's KFile from CCTV-Center for Media & Democracy, a Vermont public access station, sheds light on Sanders' support of the now more controversial elements of the bill, and his reservations about other aspects.
Sanders more recently has described the bill as "terrible" and says he is sorry he voted for it, but his view at the time was that although the bill "isn't perfect," he viewed it as "a major step forward in controlling and preventing crime."

"If you look at the issue of prevention versus punishment, if you like, I would've put more effort on prevention," said Sanders in 1994.
"If you keep kids in school, if you get jobs for young people, in the long run, not only do you prevent crime, but you save the taxpayers substantial sums of money," Sanders said, "Would I rather invest in education and keeping kids in school and making college opportunity a realistic goal for millions of young people rather than necessarily building one more jail. Yeah. I think I would have gone the other way."


"On the other hand, do I think we need some more jails? Yup. Do I think we have to get tougher in certain instances? Yes, I do," Sanders said. "So what you have is a balance here. You have more money going to law enforcement, more money going into jails. You have, on the other hand, significant sums of money going into prevention, beginning to allow us to deal with violence against women, child abuse and other very serious problems," Sanders said.
