[quote]- He seems incredibly focused on California. He's been saying that if he wins Cali, he'll win the nomination. I don't get it myself, it really seems like he knows something no one else does.

--I think it's because CA is by far the biggest delegate state and also it is unlikely he will win NJ so focusing on it would just lead to disappointment. So they are lowering expectations in a way, but I'm sure the campaign is working hard there to get as many votes as possible, just not making a lot of noise because they don't want to NJ to look like a "failure".

---It's because he knows that the likelihood of Hillary being forced to drop out because of her email scandals is very high, and so he needs to notch some huge wins so that the temptation for the DNC to force Biden in there is a non-starter.

----That's probably the most likely explanation. I've been talking in a group about the e-mails, and some of them are convinced that when Bernie met with Obama way back at the beginning of the primary he told Bernie basically that, and that's why he's been the way he is. But that's purely speculation and probably crazy talk.
Regardless, I get the feeling he's got info on the FBI investigation few others do, and that's why he's been so insistent on staying until the end regardless of delegates.

-----Honestly, you don't need any info that no one else has to see what's going on. It's all right there, in the public sphere - it's just the MSM isn't talking about it. (The grotesque right-wing media IS talking about it, but you can be forgiven if you're not up on Breitbart.)The IG report (which comes from Hillary's own state department) was totally damning. Combine that with the FBI giving witnesses immunity - I mean, this is open and shut.

------Yeah, I totally agree. It was open and shut prior to the OIG report, but after? Oh man. That really shut down any opportunities she'd get out of it scot-free.
He's probably been hanging in because he knows there's a chance Hillary won't even make it to the convention. If he drops out, and then she does as well, he won't have a chance.

-------Exactly.
Prior to the OIG, I thought there was a chance it was just right-wing media hoopla, like Whitewater or Benghazi - maybe a bit unsavory, but not remotely warranting the attention it got. But after her own State Department utterly condemns her actions? Castle Clinton is on its last legs.

--------I read the OIG report a different way. It felt like he was basically saying that Hillary should have known better, but that it wasn't a criminal act nor was it something that should result in jail time.
I know he didn't use those words, but that was the tone of the report, from my own perspective.
What worries me is that the FBI could indict a few of her aides or even some people very close to her, but ultimately not indict Hillary (because she put enough people between her and the server) and that people will still ing say we need to rally behind her.
They'll call us sore losers, they'll say we're clinging on to the negatives, that we're bringing Hillary down.
This is what I'm scared of: Nothing short of an indictment will stop her.

---------who the f*** cares what they say about us? f*** them and f*** "i heart pedofile sex traffickers" clinton for saying we're toast today. not saying bernie was toast, but us, bernie supporters are toast.
i will never tell someone how to vote, but i can assure you that if you've kept telling me you don't want my vote, I'll take you at your word, and not vote for you.

So... how illegal is it to say you're running as a "true progressive"^TM, to an AMA on Reddit, and get sent millions of dollars only to tragically come up short the last minute?

Who are you referring to at this point? Sanders or somebody else? Because I doubt it's illegal either way.

Me...

Definitely plan on bumping this thread when:

-Bernie concedes
-Bernie endorses Hillary
-DWS wins her primary
-Hillary is elected President, with Jill Stein taking about the same she did in 2012

I seriously wonder how much longer r/SandersForPresident will last in its current form. They say it's about "the movement," but it's a movement to get Sanders elected, and with that off the table, what are their big plans other than electing Tim Canova?

RE: Obama's endorsement

[quote]I can't stop crying. I'm so distraught. So many hours campaigning in my state and the f***ing baby boomers had to ruin everything.

- I don't think it was in vain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IAJ5fAm3Cs

-- Doesn't Obama know about the crimes she's guilty for?

---What crimes is she guilty of? When was she indicted and sentenced?

--this is not over.

---Yeah it is.

Wow, this is some serious faith in the strength of the UN elections monitoring regime in "third world countries."

I legitimately thought the second one was an actual r/S4P quote at first. It still wouldn't surprise me if someone there said something like that.

After the SC primary, there was one post on there that read something like "For the first time I'm really having some sympathy for Republicans. Why do we fight to help black people when they won't even help themselves."

1. Anti-thesis, lol.

2. I never understood how Sanders, a baby boomer, white, male US Senator, is supposed to be "outside the system."

The combination of the WikiLeaks release and Kaine as VP has caused a stir of activity.

The thing is, even if they abolished super delegates, had a roll call, and delegates were allowed to vote their conscience, Hillary would still win in a landslide.
