2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumTomorrow Hillary will become the presumptive nominee and it is a reason to celebrate
By any measure, Hillary will become the presumptive nominee tomorrow. She will secure a majority of the pledged delegates and she will enjoy the public support of enough super delegates to reach the total majority of delegates.
It is historic and should be, and will be, honored and respected. No one can take away her accomplishments or that she has reached this milestone. I wish her and all of her supporters a preemptive congratulations.
As much as I disagree with some of her policies, she has earned it. It is also possible to celebrate the first woman nominee of a major party and the Democratic Party while continuing to support Bernie, his run and his policies. There may come a point where it is not possible, but I don't expect that will happen. And it won't be tomorrow regardless.
Again, much respect and Hillary Clinton and her supporters. This is an historic and important moment.
