Actually, this is a pretty good example of why "Hitchens's Razor" is such a valuable tool:

Hilary Clinton at the sixth annual Women in the World Summit in New York City, speaking on reproductive rights, which we all know translates to abortion.
"Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will. And deep-seated cultural codes,
religious beliefs and structural biases
have to be changed (Clinton, 2015)".
Barack Obama at a campaign rally in San Francisco in 2008, speaking on small town voters in Pennsylvania. Hmm, I wonder what religion belief small town Pennsylvania voters have? Care to take a guess?
"And it's not surprising then
they get bitter, they cling to guns or
religion or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment
as a way to explain their frustrations (Obama, 2008).
Bernie Sanders at Russell Vought's confirmation hearing for deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget (Trump Nominee). Mr. Vought is a graduate of Wheaton College, a Christian College, and had written an article on the conservative website "The Resurgent" in regards to the Muslim faith. In that article, Mr. Vought stated the following:
"Muslims do not simply have a deficient theology. They do not know God because they have rejected Jesus Christ his Son, and they stand condemned (Vought, 2015)".
Bernie Sanders made the following statements in response to the article.
"In my view, the statement made by Mr. Vought is indefensible, it is hateful, it is Islamophobic, and it is an insult to over a billion Muslims throughout the world. This country, since its inception, has struggled, sometimes with great pain, to overcome discrimination of all forms … we must not go backwards (Sanders, 2016)".
"I don’t know how many Muslims there are in America, I really don’t know, probably a couple million. Are you suggesting that all of those people stand condemned? What about Jews? Do they stand condemned too? (Sanders, 2016)".
"I understand that you are a Christian. But this country is made up of people who are not just—I understand that Christianity is the majority religion. But there are other people who have different religions in this country and around the world. In your judgment, do you think that people who are not Christians are going to be condemned? (Sanders, 2016)".
"They do not know God because they rejected Jesus Christ the son, and they stand condemned,’ do you think that’s respectful of other religions? (Sanders, 2016)".
"
I would simply say, Mr. Chairman, that this nominee is really not someone who is what this country is supposed to be about. I will vote no (Sanders, 2016)".
Wow, good ol' Bernie left us with heaps of citations to prove his disdain for Christians.
There's plenty more where this came from. Have fun trying to spin all that into something even remotely defensible.
