Male Announcer:
Bernie
Sanders
has
always
been on the side of Michigan workers and working
families.
Bernie voted for the auto rescue package and he’s the only candidate who’s opposed the job killing trade deals that have crushed manufacturing.
But, Washington has always had a funny relationship with the truth.
So it’s not surprising his opponent is out with a new radio ad trying to distort the truth about Bernie’s record.
The Washington Post spells things out pretty clearly, stating his opponent’s campaign quote “glosses over a lot . . . including the fact that Sanders is actually on the record as supporting the auto bailout. He even voted for it.” unquote.
The Post goes further claiming quote "it seems like she's willing to take the gamble that fact checkers may call her out for her tactic... but that voters won’t.” unquote.
Michigan voters deserve better than typical Washington tactics: Hoping voters don’t figure out what you’re up to till its too late.
There’s
only
one candidate who honestly tells it like it is and isn’t afraid of
standing up for Michigan workers
and that’s Bernie Sanders.
Sanders: I’m Bernie Sanders, candidate for President, and I approve this message.
Male Announcer: Paid for by Bernie 2016.

New Sanders Radio Ad
Sets
Record Straight on Clinton’s Dishonest Attack on Auto Industry Rescue
DETROIT – Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign on Monday
released a
new radio ad responding to Hillary Clinton's dishonest and negative
attack on his support in 2008 for an automobile industry rescue package.
Sanders on Dec. 11, 2008, voted for a $14 billion auto rescue
package.
During a debate Monday in Flint, Michigan, Clinton falsely claimed he
opposed the assistance for carmakers and auto workers.
The ad, which will be broadcast on radio stations across
Michigan,
says
Sanders “has always been on the side of Michigan workers and working
families.” He not only voted for the auto rescue package, “he’s the
only candidate who’s opposed the job-killing trade deals that have
crushed manufacturing.”
Clinton, the ad says, is “trying to distort the truth about
Bernie’s
record.”
The ad quotes an article in The Washington Post suggesting
that
Clinton
was trying to deceive voters on the eve of Tuesday’s Michigan primary
election. The Post said Clinton “glosses over a lot . . . including the
fact that Sanders is actually on the record as supporting the auto
bailout. He even voted for it.” The Post also said of Clinton, "it
seems like she's willing to take the gamble that fact checkers may call
her out for her tactic… but that voters won’t.”
The ad concludes by saying that “Michigan voters deserve
better than
typical Washington tactics. Hoping voters don’t figure out what you’re
up to till it’s too late. There’s only one candidate who honestly tells
it like it is and isn’t afraid of standing up for Michigan workers and
that’s Bernie Sanders.”
