FlatBaroque's JournalI believe I can surmise the Clinton general election strategy
...and it most definitely does not include Berniecrats in her coalition.
Through her wholesale theft of this primary election, Hillary will stomp her way into the nomination. Along the way, Berniecrats are going to complain, as they did in Nevada. The image she will portray is one of a brutal reactionary against the people she and her minions are painting as domestic terrorists.
She wants to enhance her Thatcherite image and appeal to the authoritarians, the fascists, the establishment.
Berniecrats are going to make a lot of noise in Philadelphia, we will be brutally treated and shut out. She will use that to burnish her image. Count on it.
Here's how Facebook is f'ing with you
So on my feed I get posts from Cenk. And he posts an article from Salon titled...
This is one weak nominee: Hillary Clinton’s problem isn’t Bernie Sanders. It’s Hillary Clinton
The current layout of Facebook is that when you see a post from someone to whom you subscribe, below it you will see a "People also shared", which is the same as the Amazon, "May we suggest" below a product description.
Below the article from Salon, Facebook determined it would be good for me to click on the following three links:
PEOPLE ALSO SHARED
Reporters gasp in outrage that Hillary Clinton dares raise her voice, don't notice men shouting
Apparently it’s sexism week in coverage of the Democratic presidential primary. Ha, just kidding: Like there’s only one week when sexism rules coverage of anything Hillary Clinton is involved in. And

I’ve investigated Hillary and know she likes a ‘zone of privacy’ around her. This lack of transparency, rather than any actual corruption, is her greatest flaw

It was like I somehow ended up in the DU Hillary Clinton Group. LOL

Democratic party insists on maintaining suicide pact with Republican party
Barney Fucking Frank has been named chair of the rules committee. A fucking banker will be writing the party platform.
At one time I had hoped the party could be reformed from within, but by 2018 I expect the Sanders movement to have established a third party, of which I will become a member.
SURPRISE! The painkiller epidemic is rooted in corporate greed!

‘YOU WANT A DESCRIPTION OF HELL?’ OXYCONTIN’S 12-HOUR PROBLEM
by HARRIET RYAN, LISA GIRION AND SCOTT GLOVER
MAY 5, 2015
Patients would no longer have to wake up in the middle of the night to take their pills, Purdue told doctors. One OxyContin tablet in the morning and one before bed would provide “smooth and sustained pain control all day and all night.”
...
But OxyContin’s stunning success masked a fundamental problem: The drug wears off hours early in many people, a Los Angeles Times investigation found. OxyContin is a chemical cousin of heroin, and when it doesn’t last, patients can experience excruciating symptoms of withdrawal, including an intense craving for the drug.
The problem offers new insight into why so many people have become addicted to OxyContin, one of the most abused pharmaceuticals in U.S. history.
Please read this great investigative piece on how a pharma corporation has created a national epidemic in order to protect its profits. This shit has got to stop.

http://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-1.717746I have watched CNN for the past 30 minutes
and they have yet to mention Bernie Sanders. Switching to Fox. No matter how much they f*&k with our minds, we will not be deterred.
Let us celebrate another victory, Berniecrats! 
Berniecrats: It is a day to rejoice and look forward to making history
I listened to Bernie spell out the road to victory in his press conference. I have assessed all the pros and cons of each candidate. And today I have witnessed a veritable tsunami of nonsense of such preposterous proportions, that I sense victory is at hand. There are indeed corporate lobbyists who are superdelegates. Of course, their support for their candidate will not waver. But the career politicians who have a future to think about, well of course they will do the right thing.
This is why at DU today it is raining poop.
Take heart in that fact, the fact that a desperate establishment is gripping onto the levers of power as tightly as it can, and let us get prepared to contest this convention on the power of ideas, and fueled by the passion of a political revolution.
They are not going to be able to hold on for much longer.
