Jackie Wilson Said
Jackie Wilson Said's JournalBernie or Bust mostly younger people you think?
Why else would they threaten to stay home? It only makes sense if they are new to this and dont fully comprehend the consequences. And this is not a knock on them, but a wake up call for the rest of us, we got work to do!
If you claim you are a liberal and you say you are Bernie or Bust, what you are saying is you will only proactively vote if you get 100% of what you want, something that NEVER happens EVER in politics.
No rational person or real liberal will debate the fact that there are huge differences, mostly on social issues, between Hillary and the other party, therefore what you are saying is it doesn't matter, either you get ALL of what you want (has never happened in politics, never will) or you walk.
This is why I think so many Bernie supporters, the true Bernie supporters, not the ones who only care about attacking Hillary, are for the most part new at this.
I would be curious to see what age demographics the Bernie or Bust group is broken out.
If you know a younger person who is Bernie or Bust, explain to them how this works, please.
Dont waste your time accusing me of bashing young people, not doing that and if anything I am giving them credit for being engaged, and now they need to know the rest of the story.
If you are an older Bernie or Bust person who fully realizes the consequences, then nothing I say will matter, so I guess I am not talking to you.
What is this bullshit about a FB group that is going to write in Bernie if he doesnt
win?
Is that true?
Anti-Choice Activists, Using Bogus Legal Threats, Trick Teens Into Signing Away Abortion Rights

If you simply "cant" vote for Clinton, you simply ARE helping the worst
human beings on the earth take over and do real bad damage to everything not just in this country but likely just EVERYTHING.
Period.
Dont argue with me, admit this is correct and that you are willing to allow that harm to come to pass because YOU didnt get what YOU wanted.
Just admit it.
NC House speaker weighs special session on Charlotte LGBT ordinance
Above is from HRC, I am mad at them right now over supporting Kirk, but time to pay attention again for all of us.

N.C. House Speaker Tim Moore said Thursday hes exploring a possible special legislative session to deal with a controversial provision of Charlottes expanded nondiscrimination ordinance.
Moore and others object to the so-called bathroom provision that would allow transgender people to use the restroom of their choice, depending on the gender with which they identify.
In an email to GOP lawmakers, he said, the recent radical actions of the Charlotte City Council pose a real danger to public safety concerning the sexual identity and bathroom matters If we do not act, the Charlotte ordinance will go into effect on April 1.
After yesterday's intentional attempt to misrepresent Bill Clinton's remarks about Obama WH
I think it is time we get some admissions from people.
Many people here dislike President Obama and believe, in spite of overwhelming factual evidence to the contrary in that he is and has been a remarkably successful president, he has been a failure.
Here is what is interesting about the statistics of this that i can gather, almost none of these people so critical of Obama support Hillary.
But worse is most of them wont come right out and say it, you know this by how few respond to anytime he does something great and historical, like KOOBAH as it is pronounced. Cuba.
I am proud of our President, most of the human family is proud of him.
Anti-semitic, homophobic vandalism found in Marcy House
http://www.browndailyherald.com/2016/03/18/anti-semitic-homophobic-vandalism-found-in-marcy-house/Sam Rubinstein 17 and Lainie Rowland 17, a Herald opinions editor, entered their hallway in Marcy House close to 1 a.m. Friday to find anti-Semitic and homophobic messages scrawled on the walls. Upon seeing the graffiti, Rowland contacted the leaders of Beta Rho Pi, a Jewish fraternity housed in Marcy, and Rubinstein contacted Department of Public Safety officials and staff members of Brown/RISD Hillel.
The vandalism in Marcy read Gay will die and Holocaust 2.0 in black marker.
Ahh, America so lovely.
President John Kasich...

This comment by Hillary about reproductive rights is very troubling:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2015/09/29/hillary_clinton_i_could_compromise_on_abortion_if_it_included_exceptions_for_mothers_health.html
As it will soon be time to "get behind" our nominee, and since it is likely to be Hillary, and since we all agree that even with comments like this she is still far, far better of a choice than the alternatives; I say it is time to make sure she hears US when we say:
Now, this compromise plays out in SC decisions which means she would be open to a SC justice who would alter Roe.
So instead of whining about not having our candidate, Bernie, as the nominee, if he isnt at the end of the day how about we get behind Hillary and at the same time make her HEAR us about this issue and others.
Unless of course you want a Republican instead who will allow a SC decision reversing Roe entirely? Among other things.
More Than 500,000 Adults Will Lose SNAP Benefits in 2016 as Waivers Expire
http://www.cbpp.org/research/food-assistance/more-than-500000-adults-will-lose-snap-benefits-in-2016-as-waivers-expireIt will be over one million, per the person I listened to.
Guess who introduced the monstrosity known as
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_Responsibility_and_Work_Opportunity_Act
Moderate? Nope.
I know who signed it, and at the end of the day, Americans will starve and I dont think the GOP cares.
Just the name of that bill should make you very angry if you are a patriotic American. Men representing the richest people in the world going out of their way to judge poor people and ultimately starve them.
And I didn't bring this up to trash Hillary, for Christ sake. Yes, I wanna know where she stands on this, but that isn't why I brought it up. I know where the GOP stands, and I can guess Bernie is against cutting these people off.
