FATCAT 60,968 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 "NEW YORK — Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders, an enthusiastic fan of Pope Francis's work, plans to step off the campaign trail next week to speak at a conference hosted by the Vatican on social, economic and environmental issues. The senator from Vermont is planning to head to Rome immediately after a high-profile debate scheduled here with Hillary Clinton on April 14. He'll speak at the gathering hosted by the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, Sanders said. “I am grateful to the Vatican for inviting me to talk about an issue that is very dear to my heart, which is how we create a moral economy that works for all of the people rather than just the top one percent,” Sanders said in an interview. “I will also in my remarks be addressing the planetary crisis of climate change and the moral imperative to make sure we leave this planet in a way that is healthy and habitable for future generations.”" https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/04/08/bernie-sanders-plans-short-hiatus-from-new-york-campaign-trail-to-speak-at-the-vatican/ The announcment: https://berniesanders.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Bernie-Sanders-Vatican.pdf This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LebaneseDude 6,146 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Interesting how he asked for an invitation to meet the Pope two weeks before NY votes, and 3 weeks away from PA, MD, CT and RI. Aren't they the most Catholic states in the USA? I see you Bernie Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't the majority of GGD believe the Catholic church to be a hotbed of pedophilia, corruption, sexism, and bigotry covered by lies? I mean that's what I take from my experience here. If you don't then I suppose we can take this Papal official for his word. There can be no lies when Bernie is present. It is known. Edited just now by LebaneseDude.

I mean that's what I take from my experience here. This isn't about pedophilia, corruption, sexism, or bigotry. This is about climate change, and I don't have to take the Vatican's word on this, They gave actual evidence that they initiated the invitation on the 30th of March. I believe the evidence, not the church. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, some say the invitation was extended a long time ago. Why is he just bringing it up now? I see some holes. http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-04-08/sanders-accused-of-discourtesy-in-seeking-vatican-invitation I mean it's fine if you want to believe it. It's interesting how you can't see the convenience of this timing with the coming votes, but likely have equal conspiracy theories regarding Hillary. All there is to it.

I invited him with her consensus," said Sorondo, who is senior to Archer. An invitation to Sanders dated March 30, which was emailed to Reuters, was signed by Sorondo and also included Archer's name." Did you even read the article I sent you? She was consulted to agree with the invite. Her name is on the official invite. This kitten over here (meow) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way he changed the story Pointing this out is so much fun. Hey that's fine it may very well be true. It's just hilarious how you readily believe it when it's Sanders involved.
