(12,704 posts)If HRC has a lock on the nom then the Party should be bending over backwards to "allow" these "poor deluded Berners" to have their moment in the sun. If an HRC win were fair and square, a lot of Berners would take a deep breath and get behind her but all these shenanigans are profoundly alienating and only stir up bitterness.

(20,453 posts)Tell me (anyone) where this is anything more than the numbers of people who would seek a fair convention.
It was not fair, and there is nothing like your own eyes and ears to tell the story. All I've gotten so far is MSM spin, including the brilliant Rachel Maddow. I guess brains don't set up a barrier to the auto spin cycle after all.

Is it because there will have to be a replacement for Clinton? or are they attempting to undermine any progressive items from making it into the party platform?
The left of the party has finally gained enough strength that we are now a threat to the DNC power structure that must be contained.

It's pathetic.
The anger is more than justified. Just treat people fairly and they will not get so loud and noisy. I don't think Hillary supporters like noise.

(20,453 posts)Don't think Hillary supporters like to actually look at this. Notice the crickets...
Maybe they'll defend a post if you simultaneously ask, "Where's the transcripts?"
Nah... just crickets... Can't even defend the lies they joyously repeat whilst never considering what actually went on.
You said it... It's pathetic.

(4,280 posts)These Young Progressives deserve a medal for trying to right a wrong. Thank you for this video, MrMickeysMom. I also noted there were no chairs being tossed around.
I feel sad for these youngsters. How are they going to feel about the present Democratic Party after witnessing these shenanigans?
My hope is the Revolution will become even more invigorated.
