Have you been making sure you're registered in CA, WI, PA, etc.?

It looks like some of the shenanigans going on in AZ on voter registration may be going on in these other states, specifically California. Make sure you're registered Democrat, because the system may not list you as registered at all.
I left a message on my sis's voicemail to make sure she's registered, and registered as a Democrat so she can vote in a primary.

Please make sure any of your friends, family, etc. are listed as registered to vote in the aforementioned states and keeping an eye on other up and coming states.

Looking for Open Source Professional video and sound editing software.

Let me first explain what my needs are. I'm looking to do radio broadcasting, music/editing and occasionally video as well. For sound, I want up to 24/192 support as well as being able to handle 5.1 as I have a mic that is capable of recording that and I would like to take advantage. Additionally, regarding video, I'm hoping to see support for up to 4K full color video. As it stands full color 1080p will do as I'm looking at bagging a film camera at that level.
Is there any Open Source software I can find that will support that or even more current software that I can actually own, both in software tangibly(discs/download) and my work(I've heard Adobe's current CC agreement gives them the right to use/steal your work)?
Any help would very much be appreciated.

You want Bernie's agenda passed even if Hillary gets the nom., go down ballot.

Get angry and VOTE! Even if you don't vote for Hillary, vote for Alan Grayson and others, make sure we get real Liberals and grab a vetoproof majority. This way we can make sure Bernie's agenda gets passed DESPITE what the DNC wants.

What states have an electronic primary?

Nuff said, I'd like to know what states don't give an option for paper in the primary.

The percentage gap: Hillary's higher support amongst old versus young voters.

I suspect the big reason is because most of the older voters have gotten more Conservative. I mean it's pretty well understood that tends to be the case when people get older. Oh and when I say Conservative I mean they don't want to take risks. I'm sure to many older people Bernie's platform looks risky.
Thoughts?

Maybe some comedy to defuse Trump supporters at the rallies.

I'm thinking the "We're not gonna protest" chant from PCU might confuse them enough for a moment of sanity instead of groupthink.

Am I being too hopeful?

Anyone attending SXSW Bellaunion showcase on Wednesday?

There's a group, Jambinai from South Korea, headlining who are big into playing and promoting traditional instruments. I was wondering if you're attending, maybe you could mention me on here? I'm trying to find a teacher to help me learn the Gayageum(Korean Zither) and I'm having a very difficult time finding one.
I had been told by my one of my former Korean teachers, a younger one and he told me that it's even difficult to find one in South Korea. If you can't meet them to mention it maybe you could slip security a note and telling them my name and my experience. I'd do it myself but I live in KS.
Just heard about the group on Arirang.

A wakeup call to me and possibly you as well.

This is a cautionary tale for all parties, both Hillary and Bernie supporters. I went out shopping where I usually do and talked with one of the staff. We talked about Hillary and he was vehemently against her. Then I talked about the Trump rally story from DailyKos where the guys just attended as a laugh and it scared the shit out of them.
Well, I mentioned how I'm even more incentivized to vote for Bernie because of this, even a little bit more now out of fear for Trump. He ends up telling me how he's going to VOTE Trump. Well I thought he was joking so I double check and he was serious so I asked him, "What if Bernie wins?". His response to me: "He's a Socialist and brought up the C word.". When he walked away I mentioned that Bernie was a Democratic Socialist but he didn't seem to care or I didn't faze him.
This shocked the shit out of me. This guy is NOT crazy, NOT a foaming racist or anything and he is still voting for Trump if he gets the nom. I haven't asked him about voting for Jesse Ventura but just....wow.
I was very surprised that as much as he doesn't trust the system with Hillary that Trump would be that choice because Bernie is a "Socialist".
Sigh. Feel free, anyone, Bernie or Hillary people, respond.

I can only hope he reads about that rally and those kid's experiences with it change his mind.

The only clue that might have give me a nod to Trump is he said he's a Libertarian but even then those rallies...ugh.

Jeez, the two messages from Hillary and her supporters.

We all know about the "No we can't" message but it seems like there's a new message from the Hillary supporters camp, specifically regarding her comments on Nancy Reagan on AIDS, which is "Get over it". Let's let that sink in, telling people that lived through this and saw friends die to basically squelch their outrage. THEN, she tells people that Bernie is full of shit about being around the Healthcare push in the early 90's when they're evidence she is lying, no mistruths, mis-spoke, LYING.
I'm waiting for the next "Get over it" message as well.

I'm starting to think of "Freddy: The Dream Child" where he gets beaten at the end and all the souls he's trapped and absorbed get released out of his body and it starts to lose cohesion. I mean dear God!, so crazy.

The more I read about these Trump rallies the more I come to the conclusion...

That we DESPERATELY need Bernie to win. Hillary fans really need to take a look at these articles and think objectively who will be better to combat him. When those signs say "Love Trumps Hate" it's true and we need a pure love to stop this possible freight train.
Bernie's message is so powerful and positive, it can extinguish a lot of the hate because it sets a real path to those people who have such frustration. It addresses them forthright and without fear.
I am more convinced in a march too. A March on Washington for whichever person gets the nom. could be cathartic for them as well.
