2016 Postmortem

One of the main things I see here is that people absolutely do not know her history on the issues. It's mind boggling to me how much absolute BS gets posted about her everyday.
I've been a political wonk since I was in my early twenties. I'm a voracious reader of history, politics, and current events. I don't need people to tell me Bernie called for a primary on Obama, or voted against the Brady Bill, or that Clinton helped pass SCHIP as First Lady or talked up the crime bill Sanders voted for. I knew it in real time.
When someone floats a fake video of Clinton about compromising on choice I know it's edited. When Bernie says he loves Obama all of the sudden I know he's pandering.
I am not a stupid or uninformed voter. Get that?

It's sick and twisted. It's endemic inside her campaign. I cannot vote for this shit.

Sure blame the victim. Seems to me it's the other way around. Black southerners don't want Bernie.
