The video shown during tonight’s debate of Bernie Sanders praising Fidel Castro, which, naturally, Hillary Clinton insta-jumped on, was taken out of context.
Bernie was speaking of the stupidity of assuming there would be a civil war in Cuba during the Reagan administration. Bernie was speaking about how the feelings in the country weren’t going in that direction because of the things Castro had done. It was ridiculing Reagan’s doctrine of communism.
The question shown in the debate starts at 10:42, but if you watch way before that, you will see that the entire argument is an indictment of Reagan ignoramus policies.
As I posted in a debate thread earlier, it was both funny and pathetically sad to see Hillary people jumping on the video and declaring Bernie destroyed, circa 1985. Desperation can be an ugly thing.
I think if I were on team Hillary, I guess I’d go with that as well, because Bernie thoroughly destroyed Hillary in the debate. Things are looking good!
Keep up the charge, fellow Berners!
Go Bernie!
