David Koch's Pool Boy Disses Bernie Sanders

KARL: But you have to run in the Republican primary first. Jeb Bush, this would be the third Bush. You’re talking about a monarchy, a legacy. Doesn’t that apply to Jeb?

WALKER: Well, I think it’s one of those where in a Republican primary people want to see how you’re going to step and contrast yourself from Hillary Clinton. And the fact is she’s not going through a primary, or at least not a real primary. She's not going to be highly contested out there, I think is a disadvantage not just for the Democrats, it’s a disadvantage for the American people.

So, the fact that Hillary Clinton's husband had been president makes her a legacy candidate, but Jeb Bush, whose father and brother were president, isn't one? Alrighty, then!

As for the point that Clinton doesn't face a "real primary," well, that's just Walker being jealous, wishing he was polling as well as Sanders:

The guy (whoever he is) would probably be more articulate and interesting than Mr Walker.
