The Clinton camp attack on Senator Sanders has some scratching their hipster beards with puzzlement
What did Hillary Clinton’s chief strategist Joel Benenson mean when he told reporters that Bernie Sanders would “campaign like a Brooklynite” for the New York primary next month?
possibly it was just an innocuous reference to Sanders’ birthplace,which, unless youre tough of hearing, or you probably know is Brooklyn. Or you might think it was a straightforward compliment – Brooklyn has somehow become known the world over as the hip borough,with a booming creative lesson and cultural scenes galore. Or perhaps it was approximately politics: not a few people snark approximately the Peoples Republic of Brooklyn, a nod to the boroughs long and deep history of political radicalism, and mostly on the left – a milieu where the socialist senator (for his adopted Vermont) might feel especially at home.
