Clinton is responsible for changes in sentencing because she was First Lady at the time, but Bernie has absolutely no responsibility for his votes on the two crime bilsl. Gun manufacturers and Lockheed Martin evidently aren't considered "corporations" like the evil Wall Street. Evidently making money from murder and war is a superior form of capitalism than usury. It's unacceptable for Clinton as SoS to be seen with a former SoS, the Israeli head of state, and Republican presidents, but it's perfectly acceptable for Bernie to speak at Liberty University and maintain hawkish policies on Israel. Super PACs for Bernie are fine, but one's for Clinton are not. Black LIves Matter is a Koch conspiracy, while Liberty University is populated by good, Republican allies.
Oh, and Clinton's attending events by the Family is horrible, but they'll just ignore the fact that Bernie has also done so.
