HRC Needs to Get Around 64% of Remaining Pledged Delegates... cureautismnow Mar 2016 #10
I don't know where your 64% number comes from, but it's incorrect. If you're saying... George II Mar 2016 #15

All convention delegates vote twice, then, MineralMan Mar 2016 #26
True, but the pledged delegates received their power to vote again cureautismnow Mar 2016 #36
Well, in that case and using your logic.... George II Mar 2016 #43

Yes, exactly. The Supers put him over the top. cureautismnow Mar 2016 #29
Wasn't a problem then, won't be now. joshcryer Mar 2016 #32
It WAS a problem for her in '08 before she finally conceded. cureautismnow Mar 2016 #39
Revisionism, she rallied behind and supported Obama. joshcryer Mar 2016 #93
She conceded on June 7, 2008. Look what she said on June 3, 2008. cureautismnow Mar 2016 #102
She lost by 62 pledged delegates. joshcryer Mar 2016 #107
And that should have been the end of it. cureautismnow Mar 2016 #116
You sound like Sanders haters calling for him to concede. joshcryer Mar 2016 #120

It's also a symbol used by many others, including MineralMan Mar 2016 #28
Used for centuries by Irish people. bettyellen Mar 2016 #33
Now hidden, and rightfully so. MineralMan Mar 2016 #42
That's interesting; you are incorrect but it is right to hide the facts kristopher Mar 2016 #48
Which candidate I support has zero to do with MineralMan Mar 2016 #129
You are the incorrect one. The Celtic symbol is ancient and predates pnwmom Mar 2016 #135
Just as a point of fact, the swastika was also ancient and predated its use in Nazism. Joe the Revelator Mar 2016 #171
The Celtic cross is not the swastika. nt pnwmom Mar 2016 #172
Its not a picture of a puppy dog either. Joe the Revelator Mar 2016 #173
According to Rachel Maddow it is. (Even part of StormFront's logo) kristopher Mar 2016 #45
Celtic crosses are all over Ireland mcar Mar 2016 #50
Most Irish/ Irish Americans have no idea. It is an ancient and meaningful symbol- 14 and 88 bettyellen Mar 2016 #51
And the swastika is from Buddhist tradition, so what? kristopher Mar 2016 #53
Not so much the Celtic cross- it's primary meaning remains what it was for centuries. That was a bettyellen Mar 2016 #55
Thank you bettyellen! mcar Mar 2016 #58
I am sorry you were trolled for that symbol- DUers should not find excuses to support accusations of bettyellen Mar 2016 #59
You have a bizarre definition of trolling... nt kristopher Mar 2016 #67
I don't think anyone believes that poster to be a nazi sympathizer, so it is trolling... bettyellen Mar 2016 #69
I don't think so either, including the hidden post kristopher Mar 2016 #75
baloney- they made it partisan, and manufactured a Nazi smear. Shameless partisan trolling. bettyellen Mar 2016 #78
Well at least your last line applies to someone here kristopher Mar 2016 #80
You are accusing Skinner of promoting Nazis here via the avatars he provided. bettyellen Mar 2016 #83
You have no sense of shame at all, do you. kristopher Mar 2016 #84
How many times will you post that MineralMan Mar 2016 #130
Then because I'm inclined towards Buddhism I can use the swastika? kristopher Mar 2016 #63
Then you better not ever use heart symbols, because then you might be saying pnwmom Mar 2016 #139
Thank you! sheshe2 Mar 2016 #146

You think millions of Irish people are supporting Nazis- or should be accused of it? Nope. bettyellen Mar 2016 #56
It doesn't matter what I think - I've thought for decades that the Buddhist symbol being co-opted... kristopher Mar 2016 #65
Do you really think that Skinner would allow mcar Mar 2016 #57
The discussion is about the symbol... kristopher Mar 2016 #64
Nope it was about a poster implying (with the old "isn't it interesting") that Clinton supporters bettyellen Mar 2016 #70
The fact is the symbol IS used by neoNazis just like the swastika is used by neoNazis. kristopher Mar 2016 #77
But 99% of the time, it means Irish roots. And you and that poster know that. bettyellen Mar 2016 #79
So Rachel is slimy and low? kristopher Mar 2016 #81
We are talking about sliming a DUer w/ Nazi allegations for using an avatar Skinner provided. bettyellen Mar 2016 #82
Now it's more about bettyellen knowingly defending the use of known neoNazi iconography. kristopher Mar 2016 #86
Skinner provided the avatar- you must have brought this to his attention already, no? bettyellen Mar 2016 #87
Is that how you evaluate personal responsibility? kristopher Mar 2016 #90
You are the one accusing people of nazi sympathies here- if you think the avatar is as horrid as bettyellen Mar 2016 #92
Now you've crossed into complete irrationality and resorted again to false claims kristopher Mar 2016 #95
you are accusing many DUers and the Irish of "defending Nazi symbolism" when you know better bettyellen Mar 2016 #99
You seem confused kristopher Mar 2016 #101

It is what it is. I didn't use it, I don't use it. Anyone who does use it should be aware kristopher Mar 2016 #106
