To advance his future job prospects, he smeared Bernie Sanders:

"Sanders’s involvement in the civil rights movement and his commitment to equal justice are not in question. Another old picture that appears in campaign literature and video of student-activist Sanders with the university president is not in question. That most definitely is him. What’s at issue is Sanders’s misleading use of a photograph to burnish already solid credentials. For a candidate who garnered 92 percent of New Hampshire Democratic voters who said the most important trait for a candidate was that he or she be 'honest,' the least his campaign could do is remove that photo from its Tumblr feed and stop physically placing him where he existed only in spirit." -- Jonathan Capehart
