(4,797 posts)If it is, cool. If not, it doesn't matter much. We know he was there, so video like this (which, if it is him, makes him look pretty badass imo) is just icing on the cake.

(2,344 posts)his activism. When asked about the arrest I think he affirms the arrest but shrugs it off as "it's not that hard to get arrested" and chuckles. The reality is that he was very brave, involved, and forward thinking in the civil rights movement. But the wonder of it all is that he has lived his life exactly as he wanted ....to make things better and more fair for the common man. And he is still at it. For Bernie it's never me it's always we. We won't see another like him for years to come imo.

(134 posts)All political positions aside, as a leader, this is one of the most appealing qualities of Bernie. It's admirable to see a politician who focuses solely on the issues at hand and the needs of the country, where most of his colleagues make their phony rags to riches biography and personal background the cornerstone of their campaigns. The first I personally heard him mention his life story was when he was asked about it at that CNN town hall, and even then he seemed to want to immediately pivot to the needs of other people. Very respectable and unique style, refreshing for all our focus group-tested empty suits.
