2. It's been done for weeks

Sanders wants Trump to win and destroy the country and everyone in it. Just like Nader did in 2000.

10. There you go, cutting excuses for Bush's election fraud

 

Seems to be a hobby for Clinton supporters. I wonder why.

13. Most likely the OP did this to create flame bait for Hillary suggesting such a thing.

When Sanders says it will be a contested convention, and he will win, he is given a free pass

Hillary based her response on the actual pledged delegate count, that pledged delegates are awarded on a proportional basis, and in order for Sanders to the win the primary, he will have to win the remianing primaries by 30%. Close does not count.

The other fact, regardless of what his campaign is saying is that the Super Delegates will go to the candidate who has the most pledged delegates.

This OP is also not LBN, and belongs in General Discussionrimaries

Of course that would lose the visibility of the flamebait the OP wishes to create in my view

12. Does this really belong in LBN? I mean sure shes leading Bernie by a huge

margin which from what I have read he wont be able to counter now but that doesnt mean this post belongs here since its just her opinion.
