[Chief Justice Keef]

I like this speaker.

I do not.

Hagrid is just upset because he's afraid that Trump will cuck his beloved Trudeau

Hagrid does not like Trudeau and voted Conservative in 2015.

And it was the most difficult vote I've ever cast. But a Barbaric Cultural Practices Hotline is small beans compared to Donald Trump. I will probably vote Liberal in the next federal election though, unless Trudeau gives me a real reason not to (which is distinctly possible).

[Confused Democrat]

hahahaha dumbledore lol

I actually liked the quote lol.

[Suburbia]

God these f**king Bernie hacks are going to dominate the news. Terrible.

This is what happens when you give Occupy and other leftist loons too much Attention

Why? She's doing a good job of bringing the Hillary and Bernie delegates together.

Don't worry you will have more Hillary supporting friends from America joining you after trump wins

Anyway, how if Hagrid's vote in the Canadian election relevant to what we're discussing now?

Or you just were compulsively making noises.

Weren't you an anti-Trump hack?

[Bojack Horseman]

Forget about the super delegates, we need to end caucuses and open primaries. That way independents don't get to vote and another insurgency like Sanders never happens again.

You would have to pass laws to change that in 20 states.

Yeah, she's doing something admirable. Hope she succeeds.

Yeah and I still don't like him but I despise the Clintons

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I'm amazed that some of you haven't wished me death from lung cancer. But then again, violence is more of a Bernie trait then a Hillary one as the primaries show.

Damn, I wish I was in Tally. I'd go across the street to my local liquor store where IDs aren't required and get a $10 bottle of champagne.

[Antonio the Sixth]

OK, there's no way the phrase "A very mighty State, Maine" doesn't sound utterly ridiculous though.

Wow you underage drink? What a rebel...

I think you have more to worry about then insulting me.

Except open primaries brings new people into the party, Sanders not Sanders (I agree about the caucuses, though, it's a travesty). I'd leave some primaries open, if only as an indication of indy votes.

[Fusionmunster]

There we go. Thank you. Now I like her.

You do realize that this is impossible (or useless due to existence of SDR) in a number of states, right?

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

I'm dissapointed with Sanchez. OK, as a Trump supporter he's glad to see problems with the other party convention. We'd feel the same way if it happened at the RNC. But he should stop being a douchebag, tormening every poster that doesn't share his position.

[Likely Voter]

Chuck Todd (on Sanders): maybe he doesn't have control of his delegation

Also notes the Sanders campaign realizes "it has got out of hand" and there movement behind the scenes to try to get his delegates under control. 

Good luck with that. I think part of the problem is that most of these people are first time delegates and I think a good number of them only registered as Dem for Bernie but are really Greens or indies. Sanders was their ticket in maybe, but now that they are in they are going to do what they do regardless of what he says.

[dspNY]

OK that's a bit better. This was going off the train tracks but she pulled it together, just

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

If I'm not mistaken, not one white person has taken the stage so far.

already a better convention than the republicans'!

Dude, come on, if you all can dish it, you all can take it. I'm disappointing in you man!

....for now. Just wait until the roll call.
