Yes, the Clinton campaign better get used to the media attention now that the only "contested" election right now is on US. Let's use this great advantage to it's fullest.
By "US" I mean all of us on DU, and in the "established" wing of the party.
We. All of us. Need to support BOTH Dems in the media, and on the street. NOW!
Order it any way you want: Hillary and Bernie OR Bernie and Hillary. Let's play the media in a way that leaves the Donald himself, AWED by proclaiming UNITY in advance of the convention!

(7,700 posts)Bernie should stay in based on the current rules. I believe Hillary will be the nominee but she hasn't officially clinched yet. She may not until the convention. So Bernie should stay in until it becomes official.

(17,387 posts)In the past, I have been far more involved supporting Howard Dean in 2004 and President Obama in 2008. In 2004, although I was really disappointed that Howard Dean did not get the nod, I strongly supported Kerry/Edwards.
However, this time around, I am absolutely shocked by what has emerged on the DNC side. It is not merely that Trump is the nominee, but that Cruz was second. That is absolutely crazy.
