Criticism of Bernie Sanders Will Cease Here Immediately

[MineralMan]

upon his withdrawal as a primary candidate for the Democratic nomination for President. Until then, he remains a candidate for that nomination and he will be discussed in the Democratic Primary forum on DU. Why would that not be so?

Are some people criticizing him here? Of course they are. We are in the middle of a primary campaign, and he is a candidate. When he is not, there will be no reason to discuss his activities or lack of them. Some people here also criticize Joe Biden, for the same reason.

We are not discussing the other candidates, all of whom have withdrawn, except for Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders. That's what this forum discusses. Current candidates.

It is incorrect to label any posts here that point out shortcomings of a candidate as "bashing." They are not that. They are part of the primary race discussion.

I, and others, have called on Bernie Sanders to withdraw from the race, because he has no path to the nomination at this point. I, and others, have called for him to also enthusiastically endorse the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee. He has not done neither, so he is still a candidate and a topic for discussion here.
