[Premium Post] Today you have Hillary Clinton being asked about Bill's history of rape... you have her dereliction of duty with the events in Libya where our Ambassador was murdered, you have the selfish acts to compromise national security by setting up her own email server, you have the corruption and cronyism of the Clinton Foundation... the pending FBI criminal investigation... The country will be drug through 6 months of these scandals and it will tarnish our great nation's image... Why are the Democratic voters signing up for this? Why? Bernie is clean and he's authentic. He also gives the Democrats a better chance in the general election, judging by recent polling. Why are the party bosses enabling FBI Suspect Hillary Clinton to even continue her candidacy? Not only are they doing that, but they are rigging the election in her favor? If I were a Bernie voter, I'd be mad as hell right now. This is shameful.
Of course Bill Clinton has been accused of rape. No is saying he hasn't been accused of rape. And certainly Clintons affair with Leeinsky has been said to be the equivalent of rape. Yes of course there are people who say that given his power and her status as an intern that his affair is akin to sexual assault, harassment and rape. However, this is a Bernie Sanders thread not a "how many accusations of rape have been brought against Clinton" thread. And either way we are talking about Hillary's husband's rape accusations. If you want to start a rape thread you should start a rape thread rather than hijack this thread with Vlinton rape accusations.
"What we are doing in this campaign—and it just blows my mind every day, because I see it clearly—we're taking on not only Wall Street and the economic establishment, we're taking on the political establishment. "And so I have friends and supporters in the Human Rights Fund, in Planned Parenthood. But you know what, Hillary Clinton has been around there for a very, very long time and some of these groups are, in fact, part of the establishment." - Senator Bernie Sanders - in an interview with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd Wednesday afternoon, Sanders’ top strategist, Tad Devine, confirmed that the campaign does indeed view Planned Parenthood as part of a Democratic establishment that’s actively opposing Sanders: Todd: Do you believe that Planned Parenthood and Human Rights Campaign—that these are part of the Democratic establishment that's trying to defeat you? Devine: I do, Chuck. I think the leadership of Washington-based groups—and it's not just those two—are part of a political establishment here in Washington. Devine’s statement, in response to a direct question from Todd, is unambiguous. To many progressives who have witnessed Planned Parenthood endure the most witheringly malicious and mendacious assault from conservatives for the past several years, it’s distressing to see the Sanders campaign view it as an organization it’s “taking on,” simply because it endorsed Hillary Clinton. Planned Parenthood does some of the most important work of any progressive-minded organization in this country, providing reproductive health services to millions of low-income Americans. And it manages to operate while under constant attack, including a deadly shooting at one of its clinics in Colorado less than two months ago. It desperately needs friendship, not hostility. The Sanders campaign should immediately reconsider its position, and Bernie Sanders should make it clear that he views Planned Parenthood as an ally, no matter whom it supports in the presidential race. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/...-part-of-the-establishment-out-to-beat-Bernie
You were wise to focus on Planned Program since on gay rights and gay marriage Hillary was so late to the party compared to Bernie, much to the shame of the leaders of the Human Rights Campaign. If you want I will provide you with a youtube link to Hillary's numerous speeches opposing gay marriage till about 2 years ago. Of course Bernie has been just as strong or stronger than Hillary on Planned Parenthood. The leaders of these groups understandably didn't want to rock the boat or risk having the Clintons who are in the center of the big liberal money pipeline for these groups mad at them. Hillary was seen as a shoe in so why risk pissing the Clinton money machine off. One of the reasons why Planned Parenthood has to beg so hard for donations for women's health is because the same Wall Street. Corporate social liberals that the Clintons have catered to, have campaigned so relentlessly for more tax breaks for themselves which leads to a lot offcuts in government services including women's health.
It is very interesting to see a conservative billionaire investing in both Cruz and then investing in Hillary. He hedges his investments in politicians, too. Pehaps he sees both as being establishment or unthreatening enough? ++++++++++ You Won't Believe Who's Donating to Hillary Clinton - US Uncut usuncut.com/politics/clinton-republican-wall-street-donations/ May 10, 2016 - James Simons — A billionaire mathematician whose hedge fund, Renaissance Technologies, gave $13 million to Ted Cruz's campaign: his 2nd highest contributor. Now that Cruz is out, it has shifted to giving $2 million to Clinton, also ... This power couple has donated two and a half million to Clinton
[Premium Post] I saw a video today of what took place at the Nevada Democratic gathering and let me just say that it was appalling. Bernie's supporters were held in long lines while Hillary supporters and party bosses rairoaded through new rules that blocked Bernie's delegates from participating. The fix was definitely in. Bernie's supporters should be livid. Why is the DNC propping up Hillary when she is clearly the worst choice for the general? This can only end in disaster. GOOD DAY
I think poor Trader_Jorge can no longer tell the difference between Clutchfans and /r/The_Donald. Amusing sideshow though.
Life lesson 101: If you want to incite someone, the easiest way is to disregard their legitimate concerns. It leaves them no other avenues but confrontation. Listening, negotiating and compromise is the civilized way to achieve peace and prosperity. Civil disobedience is as American as apple pie.
