Re: HRC getting asked about Bernie and the rape essay

Thanks all. That's a better formulation. Rebecca - can you use answer Joel has below?

I’m OK with Jen’s, or something with a little more of a jab. Bernie has tried to explain what he wrote. But I have to say that I personally found it disturbing. Here is his response in Iowa, which still seems It was a poorly written article dealing with gender stereotypes of the period, in the sense that a lot of men have the feel to be all powerful and controlling,’’ Mr. Sanders said in an interview after a town hall event in Muscatine, Iowa. “Women have the feeling they have to be dependent. It was very poorly written in a way I certainly would not write it now. But if you read it, what you find is that is a bad situation for both people: women shouldn’t be dependent. Men should not be oppressors. We want a society where people are equal. That was about it was about.’’ * HRC has fundraisers tomorrow and could be asked about Bernie. There will not be press there. Think this is tricky. Dont think she should look as if she wants to make a political issue out of it. But has to say it is disturbing. How about this? I know that Senator Sanders has been asked about this, and has addressed it. I have to say that I personally found it disturbing.
