I never understood how so called progressives could rationalize utilizing such racist points of views. I am a white male Sanders supporter, and I never grouped all Black people as Hillary supporters. Also, to say that there is something wrong with white voters is utterly offensive to me. I vote for whomever I believe is the best candidate, not because of the color of my skin. To assume otherwise is deeply offensive.

It's such a divisive tactic and hateful race-baiting.
Speaks volumes about how low they're willing to go.

Cause we're all Berniebros- even middle aged women and PoC. It's a divide and conquer tactic, and it's insulting and ultimately harmful to our chances of beating Republicans in November.

and return to reporting about the Donald Trump vs Ted Cruz feud. The National Enquirer sets the modern standard for US reporting.

but the rules state he won't win, because Republicans don't have the same Super Delegate system Democrats do.

and, though I hate to admit it, they're mostly right.
Until he gets more than her he's still losing.
He's my candidate too. I just want him to get those delegates.

zzzzzzzz bla bla 1700 delegates only 600 away to win. bla blah(in reality she has about 1000 away to win

like having a debate with Faux Nuts. X_X since when did their tactics become Democrats tactics


actualy read the Matt Tibbi think from Rolling Stone where he says Democrats were losing until BILL clinton figured out you needed to be socially liberal but fiscally CONSERVATIVE, in order to win. thunk right there. smh thats exactly why I'm not a fan. although I think she's being forced to be more socially liberal than she is. (Homosexuality) but should be interesting. I wish every state had a caucus system. forget the lines. get in groups and have it out. thats how america was founded. we didn't have TV's once upon a time. You'd have the Candidate yelling in one corner and the other in the other corner and the crowd would run back and forth (hence all those old silly toons)

will imply that the rest of the united states is white racists, and victim something, something.

The true believers will march out a steady parade of little ROFL emoji apropos to exactly nothing (although the emojis look suspiciously like a child throwing a tantrum in the toy store).

A small contingent will consider what it means to the democratic party when so many states fall by such wide margins...but they will be afraid to post in the space of dialog for fear of fragging.
