Wrong. Both ran vicious campaigns against each other. Remember when Michelle would get on stage and smear Hillary for Bill's affairs? Remember when Obama would slam her as untrustworthy? It's a campaigning 101. You can brush off the conspiracy theory as just that but we've all seen how Trumpkins and Busters have gotten their life from those theories this election to the point that they were hoping that Hillary would die in 9/11 so that Bernie gets brought back. Please, I don't have amnesia.
And please stop with the lie that Obama and Hillary were the same. Obama was literally what Bernie is now; the outsider honest politician that didn't support the Iraq war and didn't have a history of scandals. Much like Bernie, he had young people on his side (and those laws affected them too). Much like Bernie, he grilled Hillary on her foreign policy. Unlike Bernie, he didn't have the advantage of the bad press Hillary was getting during these primaries to the point that Bernie actually had to address the emails media obsession during the debate. Bernie was even more advantaged than Obama and he still lost the popular vote by 4 million. He was only disadvantaged in the way that the DNC preferred Hillary so she would have gotten the delegates/super delegates had she lost the popular vote (Which she didn't) while it preferred Obama in 2008.
Obama is only seen as an insider now because you'd have to be stupid not to see him as one after seven years in the white house.

I don't remember Michelle blaming Hillary for the affairs no. And Obama calling her untrustworthy is not smearing, it's the truth. For most Americans
birtherism however is not true. Implying assassination is not cute either.
And yeh no, Obama was not what Bernie was because while they may have both been outsiders, Bernie actually had a 30 year voting record to prove his agenda and policy positions were authentic. And lol @ him being more advantaged than Obama with the pitiful media coverage he got at for the first half of his run. And I never said they were the same, I said they are more similar than she is to Bernie... Are u really going to argue against that?
