124. DU Hillary Group Says Votes Don't Matter
Wed Feb 10, 2016, 05:03 PM
Feb 2016

Every comment there days Hillary the nominee regardless of votes cast and that Bernie isn't a Democrat so primary doesn't matter because she's the only one running. It's mind boggling. There attitude is "haha...tough shit." Wow. They are that out of touch? Read their comments. They are like Trump.

there's that last little dollop of fecal material right in the Sanders folks faces - the "Trump" card of Super-delegates. Vote? What vote? There was a vote???

128. I Made Same Post Elsewhere And Was Hidden By Jury
Wed Feb 10, 2016, 10:36 PM
Feb 2016

All because I said this was low and putrid. I guess they didnt go to the Hillary group and read the comments there. I am not kidding they all said it wont matter if Bernie wins every primary because it is set up for super delegates to not allow a victory and they are fine with it. In fact they ALL were smugly laughing about it...calling it THEIR party and he should switch parties if he doesnt like the rules. Why does DU allow this but if someone says they wont vote for Hillary in the General Election they are banned here. Please visit the Hillary group and read the vicious comments. You wont be allowed to post without being censored but you will see the same profiles you always see standing against democracy.

Now we have the challenge to get the message out to many in our diverse communities that Bernie is the best person to lead all of us into the future.

I still detest that the Superdelegates can offset all the hard work. Clinton still came out with more delegates 15-13 even though she lost by 20 pts. That is just the DNC stealing the election from the people.

Sanders isn't winning NH by 20% among the registered Dems. His sterong showing from the uncommitted voters is very impressive in relation to who votes in November.

Mr. Sanders did well tonight, and he and his supporters are to be congratulated.

This is democracy in action. The Sanders team should rightfully and properly be proud and enthused, and should take the opportunity to celebrate.

With respect,

...considering a progressive like Sanders, if he had been a DU member, would have moved on from DU about 7 years ago. This post is about 8 years too late if you want him to read it.
