3. He is our last and only hope

A candidate like Sanders will never be permitted to run again.
The second this election is over the election-eligibility rules and regulations
will be altered to make sure of it.

5. Groan. nt

30. "Dramatic" is the perfect word. So much of progressive activism now is just performance art.

"Look at ME, and how progressive I am by doing/saying this, which ultimately changes nothing!"

4. Bernie Sanders is not going to be president.

13. LOL

[pinebox]

15. I know, FBI investigations are hilarious

and so is using your own words http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511887976 against you.
Pwned.

16. LMAO!!! haha

18. He's already starting to overtake her.

Latest Rasmussen: Trump 41%, Clinton 39%

[onenote]

29. Losing by two in a Rasmussen poll is the equivalent of winning by at least 8.

You can look it up. Rasmussen is the bottom of the barrel when it comes to pollsters.

[brush]

33. Rasmussen? You can discount them. It's well known that they are right-leaning.

and invariably wrong — they had Romney winning.

[JudyM]

35. Wrong on both counts. DOJ issued a statement last week indicating a case is being prepared against

her. The statement was issued to the FOIA court, so they would not have been erring in their declaration.

[brush]

32. What evidence do you have that all independents favor Trump?

That's much too broad a brush as independents come in all political stripes — left-leaning, moderate and right-leaning.

Clinton will get her share of sensible, left-leaning and moderate independents who don't want a repug appointing the next 3 SCOTUS justices.

And of course there is also the huge Obama coalition of sensible progressive whites who also don't want Trump picking the SCOTUS justices, African Americans, Latino Americans, women, gays, Asian Americas and Native Americans who've elected Obama twice and will elect Clinton in November.

Trump will lose spectacularly as we, the above, outnumber the angry whites who support Trump.

BTW, those angry regressives also supported Romney in 2012 and he lost handily despite getting a huge majority of them.

The days of depending on only the white vote for national office are long gone. The repugs know it but haven't figured out how to attract people of color so here's a newsflash to them: Ditch the racism.

[Tarc]

14. Yep, put her over there with "Killer Mike"

I never id understand the value placed on performer's endorsements. Perhaps Sanders lacks endorsements with actual gravitas, this is all his fans have to fall back on?

[onenote]

25. I thought endorsements didn't mean anything.

I've been told by multiple posters that when Sanders endorses Clinton, as he inevitably will, it will mean nothing to them. So, if the endorsement of one's preferred candidate means nothing, why exactly should the endorsement of Rosario Dawson mean anything?

Actually, of course, I think endorsements are good things. And I think Sanders' endorsement will be a good thing, even if it results in some of his more ardent supporters throwing him under the bus or admitting that he's a politician.

[pinebox]

27. They don't and are meaningless

however this woman needs to run for office.

[Joob]

31. It's the message, not the endorsement. If you must know.

Hence the epic.

[Joob]

28. That's going to be my alarm for when I wake up.

Because suddenly... My energy is over 9000!
