8. Remember what the DNC did to Howard Dean?

I would not be the least bit surprised to discover that the DNC sent agent provocateurs out to stir up trouble for Bernie. They thought he'd be an amusing foil for HRC, but then... WAIT A MINUTE! People LIKE him! THAT'S not part of the plan! The Anointed One will be most displeased, not to mention all the billionaire sociopaths lined up for favors once She is crowned.

BTW, fantastic research, upi402! Kudos.

Bernie is one of my senators. Now I want him to be my president.

Has BLM called Bernie racist? kwassa Aug 2015 #6

Bernie was called a "White Supremacist" by BLM posers 99th_Monkey Aug 2015 #9

I think more appropriate for these individuals BLM stands for "Black Lecturing Mutterers"... cascadiance Aug 2015 #14

"Not even associated with Black Lives Matter"? JHB Aug 2015 #22

I think my point was, she was not an official representative 99th_Monkey Aug 2015 #29
