want more idiotic wars and a cackling President who jokes like John McCain or Sarah Palin about horrible, violent policy decisions that created generations of chaos and bloodshed around the world (see Clinton's STUPID remark about Omar Gaddafi's death)?

Our best hope to punish the poor and pass laws favoring the rich?

She's not my best hope. I want life to be better in America not worse, regardless of who has a D or R after their name.

Clinton promises to continue the beating of the middle class and below.

Opensecrets.org (?) regarding the numbers of small donors (under $500) in each campaign.
I've been unable to look it up --but was a huge difference.. Something like 8600 to 2+million for bernie, according to the FB poster, evidence her vast support is largely myth.

didn't her campaign send out an e-mail or two asking for $1.00 or something like that?

Like she really could use a buck from two million people?

A transparent attempt to address her obvious enthusiasm deficit.

Also that she now understood "why the clinton campaign stole bernie's data" *
since she was getting those humble $1 email pleas. *(her words not mine)

about the solicitation (the firewall-that-wasn't-there issue completely aside).

But data alone isn't going to win an election. Its like playing the stock market, you can use the data to help you predict what to invest in, but the human element is still so much of a factor that the best you can hope to do is increase your odds a bit.
