That was a surprising bit of news. Guess moveon.org is movin' on from the Clintons.
No surprise. Acccording to Reuters "The endorsement was widely expected". They initially supported Elizabeth Warren, so when she didn't run the migration to Sanders was inevitable.
And they never endorsed either of the Clintons. They endorsed Obama in his 2008 run against HRC.

Have to wonder how much Warren being floated as a VP candidate, swayed the decision to endorse Sanders..
Didn't read the article but did it mention that moveon urged Congress to censure Bill? Their stance was "don't kick him out of office and into jail but give him a severe official tongue-lashing and get on record that he's a bad, bad boy". Obviously, Congress passed.
To repeat, moveon has NEVER been a supporter of either Clinton. Quite the contrary. The Clintons have long been aware they are too white and too moderate for the moveon folks.

Do you know if the moveon folks support public funding of elections so anyone car run for office without having to beg the rich and powerful for money?

From their website:
"For more than*17 years, the MoveOn family of organizations has used digital tools to lower the barriers to participation in our democracy, so real Americans have more of a voice in a political system where big money and corporate lobbyists wield too much influence."
I'd sure be suprised if they endorsed any of the Citizens United type BS.

Odd then that they would have supported Obama that wanted nothing to do with that.
