Let's just let national polls determine who the nominees are.

Yikes! Can he possibly believe his own words? If so, he shouldn't even preside over a bingo game, much less preside over the United States.

In it, Bernie lists various occupations prior to holding elected office, including filmmaker and carpenter.

While my good angel is inclined not to even go there, my bad angel has a few questions about this.

1) Did he get paid under the table?

2) Where are his income taxes for those years?

3) Did he belong to a carpenter's union?

I think if he's going to actually list these jobs in a voter's pamphlet, the questions then become legitimate ones.

1) We are going convince the super delegates from the states where we have won to change their allegiance to me:
Well, you lost the states with the most super delegates so that doesn't doesn't help much, does it? Also most of the super delegates aren't elected officials, but are party functionaries who won't feel the need "to abide by the will of the people" especially in caucus states only a very small percentage of the people participated. In addition, you aren't a Democrat, they know that you are running uninvited, and they don't owe you anything.

2) We are going to convince supper delegates from states where we lost to vote for me because I will be the better candidate in November - according to the polls of course.
Are those polls like the ones early on where you had the support of only 3% of the voters? If you believe in early polls, why didn't you drop out of the race then? In addition, you haven't been vetted and the super delegates are politically savvy and know this. Why should they over rule the vote of the people (most of them who voted by the millions in primaries) when they know you would not be the best candidate?

Why are you misleading your supporters by asking them to send you even more money which you will piss down the drain when you know the you are spouting BS?

I think this is just his way - and why he is at a real disadvantage one-on-one; he's used to his soapbox - but it's really off-putting. Can't he stop wagging his finger at people for one sentence?
