The question is why Hillary has changed her mind on so many fundamental and very important issues like gay marriage vs. marriage is between a man and a woman?
Bernie was contrasting the fact that he has not had to change his mind on so many issues because he thought things through carefully in the first place, chose to support the right side, the fair side on these issues and then stuck to his true opinion even when it was not popular.
A candidate's judgment, honesty and character are important things to consider when choosing a candidate.
In those areas: judgment, honesty and character, no one is perfect, but Bernie comes much closer to wisdom and perfection than does Hillary.
It's just the way it is.
Hillary has been wrong about a lot of things. That doesn't mean she is evil.
It means that Bernie, who has been right on so many things would make a better president.
Sorry. But it would be a mistake to vote for Hillary. She just is not the best person for the job. She has shown poor judgment over and over. I'm sorry. I'm not trying to be mean. It's just a question of the facts.
Hillary has not hesitated to criticize Bernie on his record on guns. Why should Bernie past hesitate to criticize her past stands on numbers of issues on which she has changed her mind or apologized for having been wrong, the TPP, the XL pipeline, the private server for her e-mails, same-sex marriage . . . . . . The list is too long to go into.
