If you're all so bent on predicting what will happen, based on who wins the primary, why not THIS?

[MrMickeysMom]

What will happen if we don't demand accountability from who's running gainful employment out of the country?

*What will happen if we continue to let someone else duke it out over the SCOTUS decision of Citizen's United?

*What will happen if the banking industry, not the human beings running it are the only ones held "accountable" for big banks holding the return on investment for criminal actions of OUR money?

*What will happen with continual legislation to spy on everyone?

*What will happen with routine college debt and nothing to show for it but two shitty jobs to never pay off that debt?

*What will happen to the working class and working poor?

*What will absolutely happen if WE don't demand accountability and reparation?

This isn't a football game, citizens…

1. I don't get how people rail against corporations and citizens united then turn around and

Support the corporate candidate.

[Mr. Robot]

2. There's your catch-22.

Can't have it both ways.

That's why I stand for Bernie.

[antigop]

3. if you benefit from the status quo, you'll want a candidate who will keep the status quo. nt

[onecaliberal]

4. I thought we were the people who fought for

The least of us. Those who stand for the status quo, stand for greed and corruption.

6. If we don't walk the walk, we're may end up voting ourselves into an epic shakedown.

I don't doubt that the leading candidate means well.

I just think that they are waaaay out of touch and really wedded to the wrong interests.

Hiring someone who says they want to end Super PACs by using Super PACs is disqualified right from the start.

7. Couldn't a agree more. I'm really at a loss lately.

It's like living in an alternate reality. I didn't get it when Obama did it, I don't get it or agree with it now. If corporations give you millions they will expect a quid pro quo. That's precisely how our party has arrived at this point in time. I refuse to continue doing the same thing that has proven time and again not to work.

13. For some those are just bullshit words spoken.

So they can claim membership in the liberal club.
Judge them by their actions not their words, because anyone can speak the words.

[MrMickeysMom]

5. Then, you're definitely not part of the group that's feeling it, are you?

Nah… None of that percent of folks are gonna feel the pain I'm talking about. THEY don't HAVE to vote… THEY can now BUY their policy with good ROI.

[peecoolyour]

8. The ones who are actually gleeful because they think Bernie has no chance make no sense to me.

Even if I weren't a hardcore Bernie supporter, I can't imagine myself not wanting to see him do well.

[onecaliberal]

9. Precisely. He is for every policy we are supposedly for.

And unlike every modern day candidate before him, he's proving it by refusing to be purchased by corporations. He's everything I've been waiting for. I will do everything I can to support his candidacy.

10. Bingo. In different words how can Democrats support HRC? nm

[sabrina 1]

11. They are a minority. Just part of the base of the party, Bernie is already drawing away part of that

small voting bloc. Dem base is now only 32%, down from over 40% in 2008. Those who left are now part of the largest voting bloc in the country, registered Independents, now at between a historical 42% - 46%. And the other huge potential voting bloc, non-voters, many of whom just gave up on the system.

Neither corporate candidate can get those two huge voting blocs, but Bernie Sanders can and will imo. Those who SAY they oppose everything we all oppose but remain loyal to their party do make me wonder. It is hard to give up on something but frankly when it comes to this country, I choose the country.

12. The question becomes can we get enough of them....

voting in the primary.

[sabrina 1]

15. I think we can! I already got one, non voter, so far and without trying very hard.

With hundreds of thousands of volunteers and Social Media working so well for him, I do think we could get enough of them to vote.

[daleanime]

18. I hope so.....

there has been few dreams in my life that I could work toward, this is one.

[MrMickeysMom]

16. Good statistics moment. In fact, I think my nephew is among this...

He's 28, and his parents are heavily in the football booster club, where primarily, it's the "D" that counts, not what the "D" stands for.

I've always been what the platform STANDS for. Judging from our conversation last evening, he's out there with a LOT of clueless NON-voters, who don't understand WHAT the "D" stands for, based ON the status quo!

[C Moon]

14. "This isn't a football game..." That's what I always think when I see die-hard politician "fans."

In primaries, I make my decision as things unfold (I don't want to say who I voted for in the 2008 primary), vote, and if my choice loses, I live with it.
I get MUCH more worked up in the general election. :O

[MrMickeysMom]

17. Doesn't this go against the standard...

You "fall in love" in the primaries… then "fall in line" with the general.

I've always hated that meme.
