After what happened here

The camapaign is now something that I want nothing to do with ever, for any reason, and I must say I am so glad that Hillary has beaten him, and it will be a good day when I'm watching him concede, and then pack up and go back to Vermont, never to run for pres again.

1. but you would just be ok with Trump because that's what we would get if Sanders is the Nominee

and doesn't win .

THE LINK IS TOXIC

92. I believe you but why did all my stuff freak out?

I honestly am.trying to keep.people.from getting a nasty so what is making my securities freak?
Really asking because you have displayed great computer knowledge in the past and i trust your word.
Do i have my settings too high or what am i doi g wrong to get the response from it?

[grossproffit]

102. You probably have your security setting too high. Also, do you update your virus definitions often?

Thanks for the compliment!

[Fawke Em]

167. Look! A Hillary supporter who knows more about cyber security than her "crack" IT team.

No offense, but I work in that industry and I can't fathom supporting her after learning how unsecure her server was with our country's national defense secrets on it.

[FarPoint]

77. Someone will need to Alert this thread...

Somehow it needs to be deleted to protect members from the virus.

[SwampG8r]

91. I alerted but only on the link the content of op is what it is.

Apparently fron the respo ses its not a bad link but it freaked.out every thing i tried and i wont click if alarms.go.off

[forjusticethunders]

2. Don't sink to their level please -nt-

[ucrdem]

4. For better or worse I think this is going to be the iconic image of the Dem primary.

It's pretty disturbing.

[ContinentalOp]

9. I'm not a sanders supporter but I wish people would stop pushing this one

Just look at that dude. No way is he any kind of liberal, progressive, Sanders supporter, or anything of the sort. Looks like a typical rw asshole to me. I don't know, maybe it's the resemblance to Rush Limbaugh but I would put money on that guy being a teabagger.

[ucrdem]

12. The Sanders campaign had a big presence there, and this guy is clearly not an outlier.

He has what look like handlers encouraging him if you look closely at the photos and video. If Team B didn't approve he wouldn't have been there. From the Mount Sac Twitter file:



The girl with the cell phone was later ushered out of the gym by police per the Twitter feed and the man in the green shirt breaks into big smiles when hater starts yelling.

[Eric J in MN]

19. You know the people with the circled faces are Sanders staffers because...?! NT

NT

[ucrdem]

20. Because it was reported on local TV and supported by interviews and photography:

For example an NBC4 reporter describes it this way in the video at the link below: "Bernie Sanders supporters on one side, and on the other, backers of Hillary Clinton waiting to get inside":

http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Protesters-Gather-Outside-Hillary-Clinton-Rally-378350571.html

And if you watch the video there's more Bernie branding on view than Clinton's, for example the blue banner behind the reporter:



Lastly, the crowd harassing Hillary supporters are chanting Bernie, Bernie in the Twitter video:

https://twitter.com/SAConScene/status/728388122304598016

[Eric J in MN]

24. Nothing on that webpage says that the people with the circled faces are Sanders' staffers.

Most of the protesters are Sanders supporters. That doesn't mean his campaign organized the protest.

[procon]

109. Reporters, college journalism students and their professors documented it as it was happening.

Bernie Sanders Zealots Are Now Shouting Obscenities in the Faces of Hillary Clinton Supporters, Including Children

Bernie Sanders very likely couldn't stop this madness even if he wanted to.

CHEZ PAZIENZA MAY 6, 2016

[Eric J in MN]

114. The protest took place, but it wasn't organized by the Sanders campaign. NT

NT

[ucrdem]

116. How did they get there? It was a Clinton event. And Sanders says they were "exactly appropriate"

when asked specifically about the behavior of his supporters at that event, several times in several ways, by Rachel Maddow. He makes the "exactly appropriate" remark at 2:31:

http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/sanders-condemns-disruptions-ok-with-protest-681128003895

[Eric J in MN]

118. It was at East LA College. They got there by driving and riding and walking. NT

NT

[procon]

121. That's a weak excuse. Sanders campaign might not have actually

organized it, but neither did he denounce the behavior of his belligerent followers. He encouraged them.


In Rachel Maddow's interview, she asked Sanders about the tone of some of the signage held by his supporters and how it might hurt the party’s chances in November:

“When I see people standing outside a Hillary Clinton event, though, holding ‘Feel the Bern’ signs and then people next to them holding signs that say ‘Liar, Liar, Liar’ and ‘Hillary Clinton for Prison 2016? — that is what leads to these concerns that you and Hillary Clinton, worthy as you each may be in each of your messages, won’t be pulling in the same direction for the same things in November.”

Sanders refused to address Maddow’s question about the tone of the protests but moved on:

[leftinportland]

89. Could be from the Brock brigade...

[Buzz Clik]

63. Sorry, but people of the same age and mindset show up protesting Trump. Own it.

[Hortensis]

140. ContinentalOP, I agree that he could be a teabagger,

but please be aware that the far left and far right share many strong personality characteristics, including a tendency to demonize opponents. Both groups are more like each other in their emotional reactions than either is like more moderate personalities.

This guy could easily be either, but his antipathy as a leftie would be based more on the marchers' refusal to admire and join in the righteousness of his cause and the teabagger's based on her being considered an outsider and not one of his people.

[dlwickham]

177. And you can tell all that by just looking at him?

Not all bern bros wear tie dyes and jeans

[ContinentalOp]

191. I think it's just important to remember that LA is the birthplace of ratfucking!

And the shaved head and black button up shirt looks an awful lot like the neo nazis around southern california.

[ContinentalOp]

192. Also do you really think COINTELPRO ever ended?

And a leftist latino activist group would be a prime target. Expect to see more shenanigans like this at the convention just like in '68.

[ucrdem]

26. Who came to East LA on Cinco de Mayo?

[ucrdem]

30. Yes she did. She's a trooper and she did her thing:

And here's a pic from the Tuesday opening of her LA campaign office, with Mayor Garcetti and Dolores Huerta:

107. Of course it has been repeatedly pointed out the posters are from several hispanic groups

opposed to Hillary and they are not there as "Bernie supporters". But Clinton supporters have no problem posting a known smear based on a lie.

[ucrdem]

108. In this video the guy holding the LIAR sign can be seen repeatedly shouting "Bernie" at 6:52-7:03:

Seen and heard, starting at 6:46:

125. Not all of it. But yes he encourages and supports it, specifically that event,

though he says he doesn't encourage the indoor disruption:

6. UNDEC

The Sanders people are the one's who get emotional; this is a cold-hearted analysis of the two choices

7. Ahem

Maybe it is not productive to blame a candidate for the actions of their supporters.

[baldguy]

47. That PUMA was behaving better than the BernieBros in the posts above.

[Ash_F]

129. It's not a contest

[Buzz Clik]

57. Was that this week? Earlier this year? Sometime in this decade???????

[Ash_F]

133. I did not blame Clinton for her back then either.

[k8conant]

166. Sometime in the past decade! 2008!

[DURHAM D]

86. I assume you are aware that she was voicing anger at the

Rules and Bylaws Committee of the DNC. That was May 31, 2008, in Washington DC when Donna Brazile convinced the Democratic Party to ignore/change their own rules mid-primary.

[Ash_F]

135. Yet she felt the need to point out that he was Black.

That is identity politics. It is not helpful in creating a functioning government.

I don't know who that shouting guy is, but he is not running Sander's policy.

PS - Looking closely at the photo, he appears to be latino. If so, I can understand why he would be pissed as Clinton's judgement on Honduras was horrific. It was an inconceivable crime.

[Hortensis]

8. Actually, this has been a pretty mild contest.

Almost all the debates were something we could be proud of, the last a little unattractively contentious but still on the issues.

There's been some generally minor mudslinging, mostly at the frontrunner from the person behind, which of course is entirely normal and expected SOP. No sensible and experienced viewer should be shocked at that. It's how it's done, but Bernie did set limits for himself and apparently stuck to them.

The real problem is this process goes on way too long. A hungry press sadly lacking in probity needs something to say 24/7/365 for over a year just for the primary portion, and the candidates need to keep feeding them things contentious or otherwise interesting enough to keep being talked about.

Given that dysfunctional reality, I really think we should be grateful and congratulate ourselves on how well our party has done.

10. realmirage—I cannot vote for Hillary for her record and campaign

The insults here do not help but I do not make up my mind on voting for president due to their supporters

If you think Bernie is popular now..wait till you see him

I would not expect you to be a Bernie supporter, but thank you for joining DU and being so prolific in such a short time here.

42. One of Skinner's Hillary All-Stars. I assume this OP is what Camp Clinton wishes to be seen

as definitive of the Clinton Culture, along with the AIDS denialism and the adoration of Ronald Reagan.

I thought he was better than this

194. Gotta love Brock's Band of Trolls.

The "join" date always makes them...oops. actually, the nonsense that they post is the giveaway.

64. Are you surprised

Brock is getting his money's worth

[litlbilly]

188. He would be if his posters werent so bad at what they do.

[emsimon33]

195. Actually, more Wall Street funded Super Pac money burned.

[emsimon33]

193. I am not sure that it is his money's worth :-)

These trolls' posts are so shallow, fact-less, and contrived that I just go look up their "join" date and then go puke all over their posts...nicely.

Very sad what level our once proud party has fallen to.

179. Vegetables are good for you

[AgingAmerican]

14. They were Hispanics protesting Hillary's coup in Honduras

And her right wing immigration policies.

[Mnpaul]

150. But it's never Hillary's fault

she can do no wrong, must blame Sanders.

[Democratic Divo]

15. I am definitely #hillaryorbust after this.

How can Bernie Sanders support the harassment of kids like this?

[reddread]

16. lol

maybe he is afraid they will grow up to be trolls?

[Democratic Divo]

22. I don't think that is a good reason to justify treating kids that way.

[reddread]

27. better to sanction them to death?

maybe turn their lives into endless terror and upheaval?
make them into refugees and then refuse their attempts to leave?
treating kids that way?

23. Bunch of angry brown people intimidating to you, huh?

Better get used to it, the marginalized corners of this country are PISSED OFF at neoliberal economic "reforms" that drive their families deeper into poverty, and get rich off their sweat.

[Duckhunter935]

69. Wow, been here a whole month

Amazing how many anti-Bernie people all show up at once just as Brock says he will pay posters

[QC]

74. Funny how that works, isn't it?

And then there's the way the troll amnesty just happened to coincide with the unleashing of the Brockpuppets.

All of this is purely coincidental, though. I'm sure of it.

[Duckhunter935]

93. Yes indeed

Almost thinks we may have a new BIG star member

You're not a racist, but you're using the same generalizations which racists use.

Obviously politics is too extreme for your delicate sensibilities.

unicorn-riders!

and let's not forget this instant classic from Clinton herself: "PRAISE NANCY!"

[auntpurl]

31. Oh, please don't do this.

I don't like the way he's run his campaign either but I think we can all agree he's better than Trump or any GOP. As a Hillary supporter, let's focus on party unity and try to remember that those who took the Bernie campaign to new heights of hatred and divisiveness are probably in the very small minority.

I will vote for EITHER Democratic candidate with joy in my heart! The alternative is too awful to contemplate.

[realmirage]

146. Bernie has basically condoned it.

I'm a big admirer of Gandhi, someone who'd rather lose than see violence, verbal or physical, have its way

178. Really - Have Proof To Back Up That Assertion

eom

[B Calm]

32. Will I get a computer virus if I click on your link?

[Onlooker]

34. This is why I turned against Bernie

I backed Bernie for a long time, but too many of his supporters are assholes. When I began to read in DU about blacks being low information voters, complaints about Hillary's "cackle" and "talking too much," and complete dismissal of all those women's rights, civil rights, and gay rights activists and organizations that backed Hillary, I grew disgusted. The fact is there is not a lot of difference between the testosterone driven Sanders mob and Trump mob. That's unfair to all the wonderful Sanders supporters, but they need to be far more forceful in condemning and marginalizing the assholes in the Sanders campaign.

That said, if Sanders should somehow beat Hillary, he still deserves our vote. Sanders may not be perfect and his campaign may have some flaws, but he and his supporters even at their worst are far better than Trump and his supporters.

[ljm2002]

40. 10 hides in the last 2 months...

...forgive me if I don't give a rat's ass why you "turned against Bernie".

[Bluenorthwest]

43. Your routine here with the hides and the surly and the affectations fools no one.

It's all as transparent as your transparency page.

[thesquanderer]

48. Both candidates have some objectionable supporters, on DU and elsewhere.

But we're not voting for those supporters.

[Duckhunter935]

71. To bad Skinner had to bend the rules for you guys

10 hides, you really need to be on an extended vacation

[pangaia]

134. Too many of...BERNIE'S supporters are assholes?

[realmirage]

147. Bernie supporters just don't get why they lost

Negativity always loses

183. That "testosterone-driven Sanders mob" was mostly women.

Funny how the right angle in a still image can create an entirely nonexistent story.

35. Fine.

You're the kind of Democrat we don't need anyways. Get out, don't let the tent-flaps hit you, don't come back.

I hate Clinton, loathe her with every fiber of my being and have sworn that someday I will laugh and mock at her demise...but if my other choice is Donald Trump and CT is competitive...you'd better believe I'd vote for her if only to block that small-handed vulgarian from ever being President.

Anybody making these kinds of "I'll never vote..." posts in a moment when the potential of an extinction-level event is on the horizon in the form of Trump should feel unwelcome here or anywhere that serious Democratic or progressive political discussions are being waged.

[realmirage]

148. No worries, Bernie already lost, it's not a problem

38. More lies from Hillary supporters

[ljm2002]

39. AANNNDDDDD...

...another short-timer spreads lies and innuendoes about Bernie Sanders.

You've been here less than a month. You haven't earned enough cred yet (if you ever will) for me to give a rat's ass whether or not you would ever vote for Bernie. Most likely you just came here to shill for Hillary anyway.

Oh yeah: for those who read this, don't forget to check the poster's transparency page. Here less than a month and already 9 hides. The old DU rules are out the door, Hillary's army of miscreants get any number of hides but who cares, right? Yesterday I saw one with 20 hides -- although at least that one had been here more than a month.

[Buzz Clik]

60. "another short-timer spreads lies and innuendoes about Bernie Sanders." Care to elaborate?

Your post was nothing but an attack in the poster, not his message.

Step up and support your claim.

[ljm2002]

75. If your challenge had come from almost anyone else...

...I might make the attempt.

But you? Meh.

Have fun with that. At least Bernie isn't a liar.

[Shadowflash]

Though, maybe it's not HRC's fault.
Maybe it's PTSD from dodging all that sniper fire.

I like to always give the benefit of the doubt.

[notadmblnd]

56. You are a liar

Senator Sanders never stood outside a HRC rally and shouted obscenities.

[notadmblnd]

139. You are still a liar!

His friends. Yeah sure- Senator Sanders knows all of his supporters on a personal level and they're all his friends. Just like Hillary knows all of her trolls here personally and they're all her friends. AmI right? You know Hillary personally?

[Shadowflash]

59. Thank you for that, and..

[TCJ70]

66. I've never understood holding a candidate responsible for their supporters...

...Bernie's policies are spot on the way we need to be headed and ultimately, it's not his supporters that will end up in the White House, but him. If that guy is a Sanders supporters at all.

I don't hold Hillary responsible for her supporters...and some of them have been the biggest assholes on this board.

[islandmkl]

68. what happened to you?...you got to the station late and missed your train?

you've been running pretty hard down the ramp the last month or so...is their a target number of posts you are trying to hit?...and do 'hides' add or detract from your goal?

you would be well-served if DU had an 'opaque' page versus 'transparency'....

[Mike Nelson]

70. This is...

...repulsive - and there is more on Sanders' side because his supporters are more apt to get out and "protest." Still, I can't believe he or his major staffers are connected to this ugliness. And, I would trust Bernie would get rid of anyone involved.

[hrmjustin]

72. Sanders will not be nominated because to do so the super delegates would have to ignore

the will of the people to do so.

I will not go along with that.

I don't like Sanders not because of his policies but the way he has trashed Hillary.

[Bluenorthwest]

87. But you were fine with Hillary trashing the gay activist community while crediting Reagan for

what we did. Your standards are not very consistent.

I get that her supporters are Reagan Democrat types, or actual Reagan Democrats depending on their age. That's not me, never will be. Thank God Bernie was in this primary to vote for, because I will never cast a primary vote for a 'one man, one woman, Reagan was an AIDS hero' candidate again. Not going to happen. If she's the nominee I'll vote against the Republican but it will not be a vote for her outlandish conservative revision of LGBT history.

[hrmjustin]

88. I am not a reagan Democrat and I was angry at her comments on Nancy Reagan.

I forgave her after she apologized but it was a big mistake.

I am well aware of her faults.

[MineralMan]

78. That is just as short-sighted as people saying that they refuse

to vote for Hillary Clinton if she is the nominee. Why work to defeat ourselves?

I will vote for the Democratic nominee, whoever it is. I always do. I always have. I always will.

You will do as you please, of course.

[NNadir]

80. I have a very low opinion of Sanders, but if forced to vote for him to prevent Trump, I would do so.

He's a fool, but there is no way that he is more foolish, more dangerous than Donald Trump.

A few curse words directed in front of a few children - who will hear them anyway at some point in their lives - is nothing compared to putting a psychopath in charge of the most powerful military in the world.

[One of the 99]

81. So you'd let Trump become President

rather than vote for Sanders?

[realmirage]

149. It's a moot point since Hillary is already the nominee

[franannjo]

82. oh well

Happy abuela day to all you hildos anyway.

[Broward]

83. Of course you won't. He's too liberal for you anyway.

You're more into pols to the right of Nixon.

[H2O Man]

84. oh

[Stellar]

85. You need to "Start Practicing how to say President Trump" today...

or VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO. Even Hillary had to to do it when it took her to June, 2008 to concede to Obama.

This Is Why Hillary Clinton Can't Tell Bernie Sanders to Drop Out

Her choices in 2008 dictate what she can say now.

But Clinton has not called on him to drop out of the race, for one simple reason: the example her own campaign set in 2008.

Eight years ago this month, Clinton was trailing hopelessly behind then-Sen. Barack Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination. On May 1, 2008, Clinton loaned her bankrupt campaign $1 million (following at least $10 million in earlier loans). Before the end of that week, pundits were calling the contest for Obama, whose May 6 win in the North Carolina primary, by 14 points, had made his delegate lead essentially insurmountable.

Back then the racism came from Bill Clinton and their cohorts...It was ugly, believe me!

[realmirage]

151. Neh, not really since Hillary won this already

[cherokeeprogressive]

96. Nobody cares.

[procon]

99. Bernie's fanatics killed his campaign from the inside.

Her recent campaign stop at East LA College was shut down by constant disruptions inside the hall by mobs of Bernie Bros. There are plenty of pixs and reports of Sanders fanatics shouting obscenities at Clinton supporters as they entered and left the rally, grabbed campaign posters out of the hands of Clinton supporters, and hurling insults even at small children who were there with their parents.

When pressed about this in a subsequent interview on Rachel Maddow, Sanders stated that he doesn't agree with protesters' trying to stop Clinton inside her events, but he doesn't have a problem with this fans disrupting the events from the outside of a venue.

At one point I considered backing Sanders, but when I thought about being associated with the likes of his Bernie Bros, I couldn't make the leap.

[ViseGrip]

100. Ha ha, the most honest man in politics? never took a dirty dime? he supports our policies?

All because he points out the problem with the money, that Hillary has become a YUUGE part of? Is this why?

Tell me as someone governing, why you don't like Bernie.

While Hillary's personality is not of my ilk, it IS her policies I don't like, and that's the reason I won't vote for her.

You are just angry as Sanders for shining the light on the continued problem with the status quo.

[mikehiggins]

101. Sadly, what "happened here" was not what happened

It was the MSM's version of what happened.

No media outlet pointed out that most of those protesting HRC weren't Sanders' supporters at all but people trying to draw attention to what she has supported in Honduras and other places. And also that most were not "privileged whites" (another HRC/MSM meme) but pesky brown people who aren't happy with assassinations and repression following HRC's blunder.

And the sudden concern with children? If that boy featured on the MSM wasn't blond and blue-eyed how important would that seem?

Haters will hate and dupes will be duped.

103. Oh give it a fucking rest

You won't find too many people as honorable as sanders. Perfect? No. But a line be line comparison with Clinton on the honorable scale? More than Hillary herself, it's her supporters and defenders who have be thinking twice about voting for her. Hillary is who she is. Her supporters should be s little more critical. You can still support her but don't tell me she's some great human being.

[RufusTFirefly]

104. I would respectfully call that a disproportionate response.

[oldandhappy]

105. You choose, I choose, tis the way it works!

[Hoyt]

106. I'll vote for Sanders if he somehow is nomined. Doesn't mean I like the way his supporters have

treated long-time, good Democrats like crud, even the biggest icons in the Party.

[thebeautifulstruggle]

110. get used to it Clinton supporters

especially if she wins

people are fed up with establishment economics and politics, Clinton or no Clinton, Sanders supporters or not

this has been brewing for a while, starting with OWS

[rock]

111. Although it would be the most distasteful vote I every made

I would vote for Bernie if he were the candidate. Just saying it leaves a foul taste in my mouth. But he would be the closest thing to a Democratic candidate on the ballot.

[TheKentuckian]

112. You weren't going to anyway most likely, you were probably just going to quietly vote puke

and then blame liberals for not showing up.

Why do I believe this?

Mostly because of the fake ass straw that broke the fake ass camel's back is manufactured outrage, I'm not even sure the people you find so offensive are even Sanders supporters.

In fact that is too mild, I have no such information. Every one with a problem with Clinton is not under Sanders' umbrella. Yes, there are even people, even brown people who have some legitimate beefs with Clinton and might transfer that to her supporters too.
I here tell that there were folks protesting her stands and actions on Honduras, I bet some folks in that group might be really fiery and Bernie Sanders has no control over them, their anger is completely independent of his existence much less his candidacy

Further, if they are so what is Sanders to do about random asshole supporters, Hillary has some nasty, wrong-headed, mean spirited, condescending asshole supporters that make me want to fucking puke but they have little or nothing to do with my poems with her.

[Agschmid]

120. Self delete this crap.

[azurnoir]

122. It must be so very embarrassing for Hillary that most of the protesters were Hispanic

and the protest was about her record in Latin America

[dana_b]

126. that's fine. You won't vote for Bernie due to the actions of his supporters. I won't vote

for Hillary due to HER actions.

[vintx]

128. LOL Hillary supporters are hilarious. No problem with her role in Haiti and Honduras,

no problem with her stance on deporting children, but people yelling - THAT YOU CANNOT STAND!

[floriduck]

130. How utterly ridiculous and drama queenesque of you.

So, if one of your neighbors shoplifts and gets caught, you should be prosecuted? You would have had as much to do with it as Bernie did for his rude and obnoxious supporters. What the fuck has this campaign season done to people like you?!

[realmirage]

136. I'll be enjoying working with Hillary supporters in July to win the White House

This will be a good place to be once all the anti-democrats are banned

[unapatriciated]

159. What ever

been a Dem for over forty years and you are shitting on all of us because we happen to care about our fellow man, climate change, equality and what our party stood for before Raygun and his followers infiltrated it in the 80's. We will still be here so get used to it.

[Rass]

137. Boohoo

Hillary is a compulsive liar, cheater and a thief. She is a crook. It would be awesome to have a female president but not at the cost of killing the working class. There is more to being a president than having a vagina. Unfortunately, Hillary supporters don't understand this.

[realmirage]

138. Thanks everyone for keeping this thread alive

The more people see the link and what the Bernie campaign has become, the better

[seabeyond]

141. Never mind that the Democrats were supposed to be the adults in this room this election cycle

Collective tantrums.

[7wo7rees]

142. Member since April 11, 2016

The protestors had many issues. It was not a "Sanders" sponsored event.

Cut it out. Kinda like what Hillary said to Wall Street.
Stop with your bad behavior but we all know you won't.

[realmirage]

143. And will be a member long after the anti-dems are banned

[7wo7rees]

152. I just should not respond, but I must.

I/we are "anti-dems". WTF! And what is an " anti-dem", realmirage? Do tell....

[realmirage]

154. Just peruse GDP for the anti-dem bile floating here

[GoneFishin]

144. I am sure Hillary has a strict rule to only hire paid shills on line, but never in real life.

[realmirage]

153. One day you'll be able to tell your grandkids

You had a candidate that might have won, but he went negative and his followers isolated themselves with negativity. It'll be a good story

[GoneFishin]

174. Yeah. Good one. Argh, argh, argh.

[boomer55]

155. Gonna vote for the oligarch loving serial lying war pig then?

[realmirage]

157. If you mean will I vote for HRC, with much glee

[frylock]

158. cough*Brockboy*cough

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

161. Everyone should vote for the candidate they prefer.

[Duckhunter935]

171. Yep

[thucythucy]

162. Even if he's our nominee?

Ridiculous.

We need to stop Trump, period. I say it to Bernie supporters, I say it to Hillary supporters.

Keeping Trump out of the White House should be our major priority for 2016. Nothing else comes close.

[messiah]

164. Who really cares about conservatives that aren't voting

for Sanders?. What's your point?.

[MrMickeysMom]

168. With all the other baiting, may as well have this flame baiting...

It's so healthy to invite pile-on commentary over subjectivity. Following the Bernie Sanders events, this one registers for what it is... some ass who OF COURSE now represents all of us.

Well... Buh-bye. I wouldn't wish for a miracle because we have Bernie Sanders. The miracle would be to find some objectivity to this OP.

[SHRED]

173. Basing your voting on the supporters?

And a fraction of a fraction at that?

Wow...that's narrow.

[TCJ70]

176. It's the worst argument against a candidate...

...to base your opinion of them on their supporters.

[Scootaloo]

186. And on the basis of a context-free still image, and the racist assumptions of people who view it

[Warren DeMontague]

175. I bet you would have before, though!

..derp

[redstatebluegirl]

180. Do not agree with this idea.

Although she will be the nominee, if it were Bernie I would work for him. I would not be a happy camper, but the alternative is to lose the Supreme Court for 30 years and possibly the House and Senate for that long. Not to mention the Trump issue.

[pdsimdars]

181. What excuse making dribble . . . . buh bye

[pat_k]

182. And he's responsible for actions of some supporters how?

Out of millions who voted for him, how many do you think the people acting like assholes represent? 0.001% more? less?

How is Sanders responsible for their actions?

[ucrdem]

184. Because he's aware of what they're doing and he says it's "exactly appropriate."

[pat_k]

190. And when Bush came to Westfield, NJ...

... I was out there protesting. Proudly. Along with Citizen Action, Congressman Frank Pallone, and many other groups and prominent individuals.

Here's the DU post about it (pics no longer in OP, there are some in Reply #55)

80 DUers replied. 100% applauding.

Would you really have had Sanders say anything else about protesting outside a political event?

Really?

[Scootaloo]

185. Oh no! It's a person with brown skin yelling at a protest!

Specifically he's saying "Boo! Boo! Boo!" What a fucking thug, right?

Of course pay no attention to the point of the protest, which was Clinton's support for anti-Latino policies and violence in Latin America. Pay no attention to the fact that there was no unifying political motive beyond that - the event brought in Bernie supporters, yes - but also brown berets, la raza, anarchists, Native activists... it was a pretty intersectional crowd. Welcome to East LA.

Reminds me of how when Black Lives Matter challenge or question the clintons, clinton supporters totally dismiss them as "irrelevant screaming bullies"

On top of the open, naked antisemitism of Clinton supporters.

And the anti-black racism and islamophobia evident from her crowd in 2008.

What I see is that Clinton supporters really get their asses in a bunch when nonwhite people dare criticize or challenge her on any level.

[aikoaiko]

187. I remember HRC supporters saying the same thing after Nevada and the Ferrera and Huerta tweets

Until they found out that Ferrera and Huerta were distorting the truth.

Keep an open mind for something similar to happen here.

[morningfog]

189. Flame bait from a return troll. Unoriginal too. Weak sauce.
