Omg this is getting so utterly pathetic now. Why can't they just accept that a comfortable majority of voters wanted Clinton more than Sanders? What is their goal, to have the DNC reimburse everyone because their candidate lost? I've never heard something so absurd.

Oh I didn't mean all Bernie supporters. Just the ones who are still clinging to this idea that they the nomination was stolen or that the election was rigged. The ones who refuse to let this go. I mean a lawsuit asking for mass reimbursements? Seriously?

Also, I am curious - Would members of the DNC breaking their own rules even be a legitimate issue that voters could litigate? Could this be spun as fraud? Because Bernie was never guaranteed to win. Donations were made to allow him to wage a campaign, which he did.

Lesson is this: If you're in the youngest age group, or next to youngest, and your pick for the nomination is not the same as your older, or oldest, counterparts…you have to absolutely turn out for the battle. Otherwise, your older, or oldest, counterparts will win.

I have to wonder - Did Bernie ever try specifically to win over older people? Did he ever make a big push for that? He did way better than I ever truly expected, but his losses among older voters was just too much. I don't think his democratic socialist label really helped in that regard. America has gotten more accepting of many things over time, but let's not get ahead of ourselves with that.
