Nobody seems to know if these were actually made by campaign staff or just some enthusiastic Clinton supporter.

I'm sure if it was a Bernie Sanders confederate flag pin nobody would criticize it, so I would not start demanding apologies for these.

But it is good to know things have changed. This was ages ago and times were so different.
