Why is it you all equate constructive criticism to so called "attacks". Your party has TONS of problems and this is a fact. Outside eyes are often needed to fix problems & in this case Bernie provides that. You say "Bernie isn't a Democrat" /1

and it's enough with "Bernie bad man complex". You can say whatever you want but the truth is Bernie is 100% correct in what he is saying and with what and how to fix things. Ignore it and you only jeopardize your own party. Millions did #DemExit, ask yourself "why" /4
