    My Latest. You don't really know who Bernie Sanders was in the 1960s. Why it mattered then and why it matters today. Here I tell some powerful stories that he simply refuses to tell about himself. https://medium.com/@ShaunKing/you-dont-really-know-who-bernie-sanders-was-in-the-1960s-79628016125f …pic.twitter.com/4RYsfgUG2p

        Here I reject the argument that who @BernieSanders was in the 1960s is irrelevant. He was not a bystander, but a key organizer, protestor, & activist. As a student leader he organized against police brutality, school inequality, & segregated housing.https://medium.com/@ShaunKing/you-dont-really-know-who-bernie-sanders-was-in-the-1960s-79628016125f …

        After I introduced Bernie at our event in Los Angles, his family told me they hadn’t even heard most of these stories. He just doesn’t talk about them. Even when political consultants told him it would be good for him politically, he refused.https://medium.com/@ShaunKing/you-dont-really-know-who-bernie-sanders-was-in-the-1960s-79628016125f …

        I haven’t endorsed Bernie for 2020. As of now I genuinely don’t know if he’s running. Insiders don’t know yet either. I’ve asked. I think 4 people can beat Trump. He’s one of them. My advocacy for him today is genuinely because I think he’s misunderstood on some things.

        Thank you, Shaun. I’ve never heard this story before. Wouldn’t it be incredible if we could have a president who was part of the civil rights movement? We still can. #Bernie2020

        Dems will never support him, he's not a member of the corporate club.

        Time for that 76 year old man to get a front porch swing and spend his retirement making fly fishing flies.

        He would have been the much better candidate. No doubt he would have won easily if not for the DNC corruption. Which they still won’t acknowledge and HRC supports still excuse or ignore. It’s the core of why there is little Democratic support.

        If Bernie registers as a Democrat and runs as a Democrat then he’s a Democrat, same as anyone else. Hillary used to be a Republican, but we don’t hear any historical accounts of anyone saying “BUT SHE’S not a Democrat!!” when she decided to be a Democrat.

        Madam, I never spread propaganda. HRC was a Republican before she became a Democrat. It’s not a bad thing, it’s just something that happened. Bernie dropped out of what to farm? College? He graduated college at the U. of Chicago.pic.twitter.com/WQsbK8Rj7M
