And the 2016 Ralph Nader Award Goes to Bernie Sanders - Time.com

[Tortmaster]

29. A lot wrong with this article, some right.

(1) Jill Stein was the Ralph Nader of 2016.

(2) The author puts a finger on one of the issues, but what about Comey, Russia, Wikileaks, Republican witch hunts? Let's not pretend that Sanders was more significant than those other causes. Moreover, Secretary Clinton beat Senator Sanders by 3.7 million votes, whereas she beat Trump by 2.9 million in a much larger election. It was never a contest after South Carolina.

(3) This is spit-take wrong: "Sanders liberals considered Clintonian centrism not liberal enough, not minority-sensitive enough, not pure enough." Not minority-sensitive enough? If the author means statements taken out of context from two decades ago, okay. But nobody believes that, especially since Clinton got massive POC support. She was getting nearly 80% of that vote over the age of 45 (i.e. people who vote). Finally, Democrats who only want to talk about economics are only "pure" on one subject: Economics. How does that make somebody pure?

Time to do an about-face and point your bayonets at Republicans, who could care less if you die.
