his last DU post was on June 10 the evening before he passed

Star Member Jackpine Radical (45,274 posts)
13. Yes, interesting. The race gambit is pretty obvious.

I noticed this story too & saw it for what it was. It's unavoidable; it's true--he DID say that, and I don't think it was a bad thing for him to say, but a whole lot of people don't or choose not to, see it that way. One just hopes that everyone gets to see enough of the uncensored Bernie to make their own minds up about him.
