Well it is a shame that a another small state has so much importance. A state that always goes GOP. The establishment pundits and Hillary want to make it sound like it is over. It is not. Onward to Super Tuesday and California. People are still finding out about Bernie Sanders and the more they find out they more they like him and his policies. The more they find out about the revolution the better. The more Hillary has to keep copying Bernie's Sanders the better for the American people if she wins.
The Bernie cult is more pathetic than the Trump one Reading through reddit is like comedy, kids donating their parent's lunch money and contemplating suicides and shet.
lol is Hillary black?. BTW how about virtually no fight back by the Clintons when they led the Dems into Welfare "Reform" i.e. doubled childhood poverty; and they also led the Dems into "three strikes and your out" and mass encarceration, disproportionately for African Americans.
Welp. It's been real friends. Onto the Cruz bandwagon I guess. Cruz is a slimeball. He is dishonest, a cheater and a creepy individual. But he is not Clinton nor Trump and that is good enough!
I am surprised by how much of the margin of victory that Clinton had and thought it would be much closer. I agree though it's far from over and Sanders still has a realistic shot of winning. That might change a lot in the next week though.
Wendy Davis is on local Minnesota news right now stumping for Clinton. Clinton must be feeling good enough about Texas to have Wendy Davis come to MN.
Cruz seriously? You're going from supporting the Sanders' Revolution to supporting the almost opposite. Do you care about the issues that Sanders stands for?
It is pointing out how as much as you tout ethical individuals you are willing to support someone who was very unethical in ways that are anathema to most Americans. I don't think most Sanders supporters have gone that far. As far as Clinton the results are speaking for themselves. A majority of voters in the Dem primaries so far feel that Clinton with her problems is still a better choice than Sanders. Really you're viewing things through an ideological lens. Carter was a good guy but he was a failure as president. Osama Bin Laden while greatly handicapped in his ability to do anything still was responsible for murdering thousands of people and continued to be an important figure in Al Qaeda and inspiring many to follow in those footsteps. Perhaps you might not think that matters but the vast majority of not just Americans but people around the world felt so. Once again so far the vote is showing otherwise. This is again where you ignore how actually difficult it was to get there and are making the perfect be the enemy of the good. It is not much different than the gripes from the Tea Party that the GOP is too compromised and not ideologically pure enough. He also campaigned and fundraised for Dems. Something that Sanders didn't do because he wasn't actually a Democrat until just very recently. This is the critical mistake why a Sanders revolution is problematic. Without building a party base to support him he's not going to be able to have much success. Once again you keep on seeming to believe that ideological purity is what's going to make things more successful. Your views aren't much different than the Tea Party's but just on the other side. The US is vast and diverse. The parties are really big coalitions where often conflicting interests play a role. Sanders has a good economic argument and detailed plans. Those are almost meaningless if they can't be implemented. Further for those who keep on believing the parties are the same just need to look at who the last Democratic presidents have appointed to the USSC and who the Republicans have.
Pretty much. I was high on Bernie, but he started getting stuck on the revolution thing. I liked Bernie because of his standards, not a false cry for revolution, ala Obama with hope and change. I dont expect much from a candidate, only for them to do whats right. I certainly dont expect him to revolutionize anything. The only thing that remains is Hillarys mishandling of classified information investigation. Will the FBI let it pass and hand her the presidency or are they waiting for her to wrap up the nomination and bring it up in the general election.
That's strange. Even with the loss in SC, Sanders has a much more clear path to the Dem nomination than Cruz does to the GOP nomination.
DNC Vice and US Congresswoman Chair Resigns. Endorse Bernie The political revolution continues. This young Congresswoman, two time deployed veteran is a rising start in Dem politics. She just resigned as Vice Chair of the DNC so she would be free to endorse Bernie. She obviously understands that the days of the Clinton/Wall Street Dems are limited. Previously she had chipped in on Debbie Wasserman DNC Hillary gal cooking the books to limit debates to only six and largely weekends. <iframe width="848" height="507" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2UM8F4EuUbw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I do support what Sanders is fighting for. There's no difference between Clinton, the Democratic establishment, the Republican establishment, Cruz, Rubio, Kaisich, etc. They are owned by the same special interests and fighting for the same causes, just pretending they are different. There was no difference between Clinton/Bush/Obama. The only ones who are different are Sanders and Trump. Sanders is fighting for the people and Trump is just a psychotic racist. If Sanders has no shot, might as well vote for someone who has a shot at knocking off Trump.
If Bernie can't win the African American vote, he can't win the Dem nomination. Bernie is also down by a lot in the polls for my state (Texas). Cruz will win this state, the question is by how much. a large this would help him pick up a large number of delegates helping him gain ground. Don't get me wrong, I think Cruz is absolutely horrible. He has done something dirty on literally every stop so far. But meh I'd rather him than Trump.
Even if Sanders does not become the dems nominee, he already succeeded in laying the path for the next generation progressive candidates. This attractive gal is the future face of the party: tough when it comes to defense of country while holding anti-establishment views. Hillary not only has the establishment support, she IS the establishment.
If I were you I'd vote your conscience, not who is leading the polls. I voted for Bernie and I know he may not win but his proposals are what need to be pushed for this country to change this rigged system we've had since Reagan. At the very least a strong showing from Sanders will have an impact on Clinton's platform going forward. Vote your conscience!
DNC Vice Chairman resigned & endorsed Sanders. Will work on his campaign. Seems to be a rift within the DNC. Sanders has a 3% lead in polls suggesting he'd beat Trump. Where as Trump would smoke Clinton down the campaign trail. People within the DNC are starting to swing towards Sanders as it's becoming increasing likely Trump wins the GOP
