Related: About this forumCalifornia Gov. Brown praises Sanders, endorses Clinton.....and counting 72 delegates
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/05/jerry-brown-endorses-hillary-clinton-223723California Gov. Jerry Brown is deeply impressed with Bernie Sanders campaign, but next week he will cast his vote in the states Democratic primary for Hillary Clinton, praising the former secretary of state as the best candidate to prevent a Donald Trump victory in November.
I have closely watched the primaries and am deeply impressed with how well Bernie Sanders has done, Brown wrote in an open letter to California Democrats and independents published Tuesday. He has driven home the message that the top one percent has unfairly captured way too much of Americas wealth, leaving the majority of people far behind. In 1992, I attempted a similar campaign.
Clinton, however, has convincingly made the case that she knows how to get things done and has the tenacity and skill to advance the Democratic agenda, he continued, noting that she has gotten nearly 3 million more votes than Sanders and leads by hundreds of delegates.
In other words, Clintons lead is insurmountable and Democrats have shown by millions of votes that they want her as their nominee, Brown said. But there is more at stake than mere numbers.
wow wow...OMG...............

(10,437 posts)2. nail in the coffin as sanders was hoping for his endorsement
I am surprise by the timing as best case I saw, brown would wait until the convention
the effect of sanders is driving super delegates into coalescing around hillary....as its apparent that bernies end game is exactly what he is doing
seek and destroy

SD's would somehow change minds.

and the extreme-left have been doing since he was inaugurated. No diff, so no big deal.
