One being the irony that a vote for a candidate that gets away with corruption beats an incompetent bigot that gets called out every time.

They want nothing but the destruction of the DNC and will achieve their goals with violent means while voting for Donald Trump.

who are breaking for Sanders and that we need to ignore the will of the primary voters in order to court the unaffiliated?

The loser of the 2008 primary had over 17,000,000 votes. As a matter of fact, by some measures she had more votes than the person who won the nomination.

And the person who 17,000,000 Democrats did not vote for in the primaries went on to win two terms as president.

So, your point is...?

Subverted democracy? That's what the Bernie haters are saying about him, today.

Sad, isn't it, that H got far fewer votes this time than 8 years ago? And that an unknown small state senator has nearly tied this time. The California vote is not yet in, and Obama refuses to endorse H, even tho yall are claiming H has already won.
