78. Thank you for the endorsement, but I disagree with your superdelegate vote

Superdelegates should always vote for the candidate who won the primary or caucus of their state. You have now boxed yourself in to possibly vote against the will of Florida Democratic voters. That is so foolish and irresponsible, not to mention it will assure a loss in your Senate race, should you get that far.

We do not want an elite group of establishment Democrats, lobbyists and other special interests who are now superdelegates, to decide who will be our candidate. YOU are setting a precedent for that to now happen. If you set the precedent that allows other superdelegates to vote against Bernie, even if he won the primary or caucus of any given state, I will fucking hate your guts for the rest of my life.

I hope Bernie supporters will see how disastrous it would be if superdelegates decide to vote against the will of the people. Please don't buy into this shit sandwich.

I agree, many do think one having money is bad, have been reading this morning some of the comments. Thinkingabout Feb 2016 #13

Hating rich people is pointless. But you can pitty them for all the problems they will incur because Jemmons Feb 2016 #51

What an odd comment el_bryanto Feb 2016 #8

I just read the post. Hillary doesn't care about people because she is the 1%. Thinkingabout Feb 2016 #9

Do you think that in general the 1%'s interests are those of most of America el_bryanto Feb 2016 #17

In many cases just as interested in the ones at the bottom 1%. Thinkingabout Feb 2016 #29

Nobody deserves to be in the 1% marions ghost Feb 2016 #34

That's a bit of an understatement creatives4innovation Feb 2016 #49

Ditto. n/t Paper Roses Feb 2016 #68

Does it buy influence anymore than Sanders fund raising with the same companies? Thinkingabout Feb 2016 #74

Not even close, really? Dustlawyer Feb 2016 #83

Well, we can say it did not influence Clinton's votes, not so sure about Sanders, he was influenced Thinkingabout Feb 2016 #85
