Bernie calls out Trump on wages, Trump changes tune

Donald Trump changes tune on wages after Bernie Sanders broadside
http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-bernie-sanders-wages-high-low-2015-12

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has appeared to take a new position on US wages.

After previously saying wages were "too high," Trump instead stressed Monday that they were actually "too low."

In the Monday-morning tweet, Trump also said that good jobs were "too few" and that people had "lost faith in our leaders."

(snip)
Trump, however, has indeed said that wages — among many other things in the US — are too high.

One in particular. I won't name her, because that would start another mini-riot when her henchmen come out and attack without rhyme or reason.

Heck, even a short rhyme would be nice.

jazz tune named "Bernie's Tune". It's pretty peppy. Reminds me of Bernie. Maybe his campaign people could use it.

It picked up my day. I'm sure that they are professionals. I'll check them out on the INTERNET.

So far as being Bernie's campaign song, it might be a bit too complicated.
