Great Watch! Bernie at both his Serious and Funniest Best

The reporter was pressing him to say that a certain candidate is corrupt (I am pretty sure I know which one he meant) but Bernie would have none of it. Why did they ask him to do a monster immitation?

Getting such a thing, however innocently, on video would give them the fodder for a Dean scream type of smearing. The PTB through their media lackeys have to be collecting and taping anything that could potentially make him look crazy. They have one he'll of a track record of doing just that.t

And they got him to do it there, Damn it! It's very quick and.restrained, but I'll bet that's why they wanted another take. The context is what does he do with his grandkids, and naturally he plays pretend monster with them. But context.doesn't matter when they're putting together a "show the folks how crazy he is tape."
