it really all comes down to this for Bernie

[retrowire]

And this is how we know he's not down and out.

Bernie is doing better against Hillary than Ted Cruz is against Trump, yet the media is still clamoring for how Cruz can work things to win against Trump.

But even though Bernie is doing better than Cruz, the media is convinced that Bernie should drop out.

Theres really no secret that the powers that be desire a certain outcome here.

[boston bean]

1. ummm no. The voters decided the outcome.

[Broward]

3. Low information voters.

[LexVegas]

6. There it is. nt

[Broward]

9. A failing media, lying Hillary and busy lives

all contribute to the ignorance of voters. By all means, ignore reality though if you want.

[LexVegas]

11. Double down on the racist "low information" bullshit.

[Broward]

15. Racist? People of all backgrounds are ignorant.

It was once commonplace around here to lob the same charge against Repubs. Was that racist?

[LexVegas]

16. Yeah, its fucking racist. "Low information", "Stockholm sydrome", "Confederate states". nt

[Broward]

18. Typical ignorance from the Hillary crowd.

Hillary and her supporters play both sides of the race card. Whatever suits their needs. Btw, I know nothing about who you are but in a small way you prove my claim.

[LexVegas]

20. The term "race card" is a right-wing construct. nt

[Broward]

23. Why are you backing right-wing Hillary? Look inside yourself.

You might not like what you see, but it's best to come to terms with who you really are. Acceptance can be quite liberating.

[LexVegas]

25. Why do you use dog whistle terms like "low information" and "race card"?

[Broward]

26. If you're backing Hillary on the issues, you're likely a right-winger.

I know that's hard for you to see. Ignorance is bliss and all though.

[B Calm]

17. Wow, you actually called another DUer a racist.

[YouDig]

12. I've found that Bernie voters are generally lower in information.

Many of them are in college, which is great, but 20-year-olds aren't generally known for their wisdom and worldliness. Bernie is running a more idealistic campaign, but Hillary is running a more fact-based one.

[aikoaiko]

37. Fact-based? LOL.

[retrowire]

21. not really.

There's millions of voters and caucus goers that were screwed out of that right this primary season.

But if Hillary Supporters wanna gloat over a victory in new york like that then, by all means, show us how much you really care about the voting process.

[Skwmom]

2. They want a Corporate Puppet in the Whitehouse.

[SFnomad]

4. BS is doing better than Rafael? So your whole point is .. "BS isn't losing as badly!!"?? n/t

[fasttense]

5. We should all ask Hillary to drop out.

I mean who really wants more wars and corporate trade deals?

[hereforthevoting]

14. People who make money off of them

So not me.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. Maybe your guy should just beat her at the ballot box.

That's how we roll in America.

[retrowire]

22. maybe your gal should be concerned about her wins

When millions of people have been screwed out of their right to voice their vote?.

Or is it, anything it takes?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

31. If my candidate was getting his or her ass handed to them I would like to think I would have ...

If my candidate was getting his or her ass handed to them I would like to think I would have the dignity to accept the result. There are as many excuses as there are losers.

Folks just aren't all that into your candidate.


There is no fraud. The Vermont independent's support in a mile deep and an inch wide.

[retrowire]

32. except for the proof of all the disenfranchised voters

That have had their right to vote made more and more difficult by varying events this season?

Wow. You're that in denial? Even Hillary herself talks about it at times, lawsuits have been filed.

Lol anything it takes right?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

34. The proof exists in your mind.

If there were obstacles to voting it affected both candidates.


Folks just aren't into Bernie...

Go to Bed-Stuy, go to Brownsville, go to Jamaica, go to Hollis, go to the South Bronx, go to Harlem, and actually talk to people there. They will tell you they are not feeling the Bern.


There'a whole world beyond the Bernie internet bubble.


P.S. I almost forgot. Senator Sanders has spent millions on polling after saying they were superfluous. If the actual results differ from his polling in the states he lost he should produce those polls.

[retrowire]

36. the proof exists in data that you're willfully denying.

But whatever.

[aikoaiko]

40. Just when I want to think you're a reasonable HRC fanatic you say something like this.

He has 45% of the pledged votes so far and 43% of the popular vote.

Has is that an inch wide?

[fasttense]

28. No it's NOT

First the ballot box is rigged. You don't know if your vote is counted or not. There is no way to tell. Then the process of voting is rigged to keep out all but the most fanatical conservative from voting.

Second she and her supporters keep asking him to drop out. The corporate media keeps asking him when he's going to drop out. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Third, we haven't had a real liberal in the White House since JFK and when one finally runs, we all pretend he isn't what he really is. A real liberal unlike Hillary, unlike Obama unlike Bill.

[grossproffit]

7. Yet, he's losing to her.

[salinsky]

8. Bernie is better than Cruz? ...

... this is your argument.

Try again.

[pdsimdars]

42. Go back and try reading All the words . . . then you "try agian."

[YouDig]

10. It comes down to votes and delegates. And he lost them.

[itsrobert]

13. The Taffy Machine is set on HIGH

[CrowCityDem]

27. Cruz is doing better, in a way.

Cruz still has a realistic way of winning. Stop Trump from getting 1,238 delegates, and the process is completely up in the air. Cruz can certainly have a shot of winning a contested convention.

Bernie, on the other hand, has no path. The math makes it all but impossible for him to overtake Hillary in pledged delegates, and the supers are NOT going to overturn that result. Therefore, Bernie has no realistic way of winning.

[seabeyond]

29. The media has coddled Sanders and certainly have not vetted him. If the "powers that be" wanted a

certain outcome as your post suggests, all they would have to do is discuss the facts of Sanders and his history.

[Hiraeth]

35. Actually, they have DISMISSED him as irrelevant and impossible which, is even more

insulting. I welcome their VETTING PROCESS.

[Tarc]

33. Apples and oranges

Cruz's endgame is hoping to force a second ballot where th pledge delegates will be freed. That plus the way the GOP allocates delegates in some states...winner-take-all, 50% of a precinct takes all (e.g. NY) makes any Republican to Democratic Party primary comparisons invalid. It's the only reason Kasich lingers on because he took every single Ohio delegate.

[JaneyVee]

38. Repubs dont do proportional delegates.

[Orsino]

39. Yep That's what we're up against.

Among many other things.

[Lizzie Poppet]

41. The PTB have been all-in for Princess Weathervane from the get-go.

The status quo candidate...

[Punkingal]

43. I find the media completely disgusting.

I no longer watch television "news."
