REGRESSIVELEFTGuess you don't know anything about the provisional ballots people were forced to use in California.

So much foul play you are just making a fool of yourself by denying the falsehood of this primary race.


I imagine you'll scream and shout "establishment shills" but maybe you'll surprise me for once.

Well, from what I understand, in order to keep his delegates he had to do that. He's doing what FDR supposedly did- endorsing the main candidate, get into the Convention with his won delegates and then take win at the Convention. This is just something I quickly read, don't know if it's actually true/viable though...

He has to assume that the SD's will swap over, which they are most likely not going to do. On average, the polls are indicating a Hillary win in the GE, even after the email-fiasco. So, unless some new bombshell comes out between now and the convention, he is merely doing what he stated, taking his campaign all the way to the convention.

Here's a good take on why he won't be contesting at least the make-up of it.


"Early this morning, before Bernie Sanders made his big speech endorsing Hillary Clinton today in New Hampshire, Sanders’s top policy adviser, Warren Gunnels, sent an email to a few dozen fellow Sanders supporters.

“The Senator made the difficult decision not to file minority reports,” Gunnels wrote in the email, which was sent to all of Sanders’s representatives on the Democratic convention Platform Committee and forwarded to this blog. “You should be receiving an e-mail soon from the Senator about the next steps in the political revolution.”

This dry language actually amounts to a very significant declaration: What it means is that the Sanders campaign will not further contest the makeup of the Democratic platform at the convention, even though Sanders did not get all the changes to the platform he had hoped for. Previously, the Sanders campaign had intimated that — even after he endorsed Clinton — it would file minority reports indicating his disagreement with various aspects of the Dem platform, which could have perhaps led to continuing disillusionment among his 13 million voters, whom Clinton very much wants to win over starting now."

You did read this right...

"Trump tweeted that Petraeus "got in trouble for far less" in comparison with Clinton. To the extent his tweet was a comment on the purely legal elements of the case, he’s wrong to suggest that Petraeus — who acted intentionally and then lied about it — was treated unfairly compared to Clinton."

1. Not the definition of a 1%er. Bernie & Jane's combined income in 2014 was a little over $205,000. It's a lot of money, but nothing to freak out over.
2. Have you seen his homes? Main home in Burlington is quite modest, especially for a senator. Second home is in DC for obvious reasons. Third home is a lake house.

If you think this actually detracts from his message, then you never understood his message in the first place.

"The latest numbers from the IRS—based on just-released data from 2013 tax returns—show what it takes to be among the top 1% of income earners: At least $428,713 of adjusted gross income. "


No, not really. Just fiscally responsible upper middle class.

1% is a pretty small percentage of the population.








This has nothing to do with Bernie I just wanted to correct you.

Joe Biden supporter coming in peace. You guys put up a hell of a fight this year. You fell just short, but you have a great team. I'm excited to see what you can do in 2024.

As someone who loved Bernie, I hope he doesn't run next time. He will definitely be too old by then and clearly he won't get the nomination
