1. Look like him, but it won't matter until Capehart speaks with someone's wife, who

wasn't there, to weigh in.

[UglyGreed]

4. Yes we must wait until they

speak up about the matter. Makes perfect sense to me.

[restorefreedom]

18. rotfl! and sadly, probably true nt

[roguevalley]

36. the newspaper said the four named including bernie were

'in positions of leadership and engineered the whole thing'.

YOWSA! He gets better every day.

[Jarqui]

2. Maybe. Looks like him nt

[thereismore]

3. It could be him. Shall we ask Copehart? nt

[thereismore]

5. Is it really at the same address? Now I am intrigued. nt

[UglyGreed]

6. I don't know but it very interesting to say the least N/T

[virtualobserver]

7. It really does look like him

very cool

[Merryland]

8. I'm pretty sure it's Bruce Rappaport but

I'll check with Scoop Capehart to make sure...

[madokie]

10. I trust that the man is telling me the truth

when he talks about his involvement here. The man is honest to a fault. Just what America needs leading our country, for a change.

the picture of him at the time and this video makes me believe it is him

[Bluenorthwest]

11. What I can say with certainty is that it is not a photo of Hillary Clinton landing in Bosnia under

sniper fire in 1996.

[UglyGreed]

19. You're bad

[beam me up scottie]

23. !

[jillan]

29. Zing!!!!!

[mmonk]

31. .

[roguevalley]

37. my baby was in bosnia at the time as part of the Dane contingent

of the UN mission dodging snipers just to get to the latrine. He didn't see her there.

[NWCorona]

12. Look at the watch

And compare it to the vintage photos. Very similar and same goes for the glasses. Good find!

[ALBliberal]

13. Looks just like him.

[HooptieWagon]

14. Wow. Certainly looks like him.

What is the source of the clip?

[UglyGreed]

16. This group

’63 Boycott chronicles the Chicago Public School Boycott of 1963 when more than 200,000 Chicagoans, mostly students, marched to protest the segregationist policies of CPS Superintendent Benjamin Willis, who placed mobile school units on playgrounds and parking lots as a “permanent solution” to overcrowding in black schools. The project will offer a modern perspective on the impact and legacy of this forgotten history 50 years later as it reconnects the participants to each other and the event itself. Share the photos with your parents, grandparents, or elders. Check out our tip sheet.

20. Sounds pretty cool.

I tried to share the video clip to fb, but get message that Vimeo was overloaded...must be a lot of people sharing.

[UglyGreed]

21. Good it gives the documentary

more exposure. Also in this day and age I'm sure there is some face recognition technology they could use to prove it one way or the other.

[winter is coming]

15. Possibly. Can't really say that I care one way or the other. n/t

[UglyGreed]

17. If it was Bernie

he sure didn't want to go into that paddy wagon

[NWCorona]

22. Looks like this is getting some traction.

Here's two articles about this video and some background info.

25. Good to see

one way or the other it will shine a light on the project, thanks for the links

[roguevalley]

39. a life without works is no life.

[Vinca]

24. Looks like him. What's the source of the video?

[UglyGreed]

26. I posted the website above

other than that I could not find another source.

[Cheese Sandwich]

27. Sure looks like him

[libdem4life]

28. Wee Doggies...Gone past Photogate...on to Videogate. What a find...and the newspaper article.

Could be...

[Doctor_J]

30. I thought camp weather vane proved beyond a shadow of a doubt last week that Bernie

was never ever ever ever a civil rights activist. How can this be?

[UglyGreed]

33. Bernie is a sly devil

very clever in the ways of deception......

[nc4bo]

41. Bernie bad.

If only there weren't any photos or videos then he'd be Bernie good.

[Blue_In_AK]

32. It's hard to say for sure,

but it certainly looks like him and seems to be corroborated by the newspaper article.

[mhatrw]

34. I say yes.

[TBF]

35. "In these times" has it up on their page today -

it's circulating.

Clearly that's Hillary being arrested.

[mhatrw]

38. "I saw her." nt

[UglyGreed]

42. I thought it was Meryl Streep

[bigwillq]

40. Looks like John Lewis to me.
