Your preferred candidate was snubbed AgingAmerican Apr 2016 #11

She wasn't snubbed rock Apr 2016 #30

Beg to be invited is your delusion. Invited is fact. Expressing interest in global povery is Nanjeanne Apr 2016 #75

No rock Apr 2016 #79

Well the Hillarians seem to think so . . . so I guess the answer is Yes! Nanjeanne Apr 2016 #82

YES!!! He's the closing speaker! Check the schedule. floppyboo Apr 2016 #5

shortest time allotted for the day - lol DrDan Apr 2016 #8

What time slot was Hillary invited to speak in? AgingAmerican Apr 2016 #15

lol - you mean she did not ask for a 10 minute time slot DrDan Apr 2016 #16

How long is Hillary's time slot? AgingAmerican Apr 2016 #19

I am surprised he could break away from meeting with the Pope for even 10 minutes DrDan Apr 2016 #24

Oh, Please. What is the longest speaking slot? 15 minutes. bjo59 Apr 2016 #128

just pointing this out in the context of the OP - that this is a headline speech DrDan Apr 2016 #131

10 minutes is still better than NO minutes, which is what your candidate has. eom Fawke Em Apr 2016 #20

don't believe she asked for any minutes - she has a campaign to manage DrDan Apr 2016 #22

She has a Goldman Sachs fundraiser to attend. There, I fixed it for you. arcane1 Apr 2016 #25

Actually, it's a $350,000 plate dinner with the Clooneys. Fawke Em Apr 2016 #115

and whos campaign would that be? litlbilly Apr 2016 #125

You're not glad a candidate for the first time in history of the US was invited to speak about Joob Apr 2016 #132

I think it is an honor - I do not think there is a need to overstate what is happening DrDan Apr 2016 #133

The closing speaker before the speaker 45 minutes later? brooklynite Apr 2016 #29

You should read the OP title at least before you post. doh! nt floppyboo Apr 2016 #33

No speakers follow Sanders. Just response and discussion nt floppyboo Apr 2016 #49

The "2nd response" is a scheduled speech... brooklynite Apr 2016 #50

oh, do you have that link, and were they responding to Correa instead? nt floppyboo Apr 2016 #66

Here's the schedule as it appeared on Saturday. brooklynite Apr 2016 #78

You were bitching that he was not on the program passiveporcupine Apr 2016 #134

Looks like they changed alot! Wonder when that sched came out originally. floppyboo Apr 2016 #84

LOL. The coveted 10-minute slot right before the coffee break! DanTex Apr 2016 #17

coveted last speaker of the day, I think you meant. floppyboo Apr 2016 #38

I'll try another analogy you might understand: floppyboo Apr 2016 #45

You realize there's a whole other day to the conference, right? And also that there's another DanTex Apr 2016 #47

Let's see. It's an exultation of larks, a pride of lions, and a bumfuckery of Dans. HERVEPA Apr 2016 #55

Here's the latest link I have. Is there another? Because on this, there are no further speakers. floppyboo Apr 2016 #57

"16:45 Session #4: second respondent Professor Hsin-Chi Kuan" DanTex Apr 2016 #65

yes, I see that. Respondant. nt floppyboo Apr 2016 #67

Umm, yeah, a respondent is a speaker. DanTex Apr 2016 #70

nice try floppyboo Apr 2016 #76

In other words, a respondent speaks. What's even more funny is that they slipped DanTex Apr 2016 #80

They're giving Bernie a 5 min. introduction with circling doves oasis Apr 2016 #87

When's Hillary come on? Octafish Apr 2016 #26

she is sticking around NY - her internals look pretty good - no reason to abandon ship DrDan Apr 2016 #28

Or maybe going to the Bay Area to peddle influence at a couple $353K /plate glam dinners. jmg257 Apr 2016 #37

helping the downticket candidates . . . what has your candidate done to help them DrDan Apr 2016 #44

Wow, you're throwing in every talking point Clinton has ever had, all in one thread. arcane1 Apr 2016 #46

just responding to the posts - I did not bring up that fundraiser DrDan Apr 2016 #51

the downticket SD have already paid their own way. floppyboo Apr 2016 #96

do you have the meme of the day list in front of you? litlbilly Apr 2016 #127

You are privy to her doctor's reports? HERVEPA Apr 2016 #59

I see what you did - lol DrDan Apr 2016 #62

We do know what your colonoscopy reports would show. HERVEPA Apr 2016 #64

Yes, laughing at your mistakes is good! I think the Dalai Lama agrees too! floppyboo Apr 2016 #104

it's much too entertaining reading your delusions to take a break DrDan Apr 2016 #105

Guess we're going to just have to wait and see how this plays out. Excited? I am!!! nt floppyboo Apr 2016 #106

I know you are . . . DrDan Apr 2016 #107

response from 'the guy' floppyboo Apr 2016 #111

Like Santana at Woodstock, daytime gigs can set the tone for the whole show. Octafish Apr 2016 #126

Be nice! It would be UNFAIR to invite someone with zero credibility on the topics. arcane1 Apr 2016 #31

Like Greek to me. Octafish Apr 2016 #123

It's about the idolatry of money noiretextatique Apr 2016 #52

Bernie speaking on the idolatry of money while... tex-wyo-dem Apr 2016 #108

Hey! It's never too late to invest your portfolio with Phil at UBS Wealth Management. Octafish Apr 2016 #124

this just makes you guys look petty. is that really the look you are going for? nt restorefreedom Apr 2016 #90

the reaction of your side in trying to spin this as important is priceless DrDan Apr 2016 #92

its not the be all end all. but its also not meaningless. restorefreedom Apr 2016 #93

I think it is quite an honor - even just the invite is an honor DrDan Apr 2016 #95

then maybe we should just all move on restorefreedom Apr 2016 #97

Relax, Hillary can speak at Goldman Sachs and promise them amnesty when she is president Zira Apr 2016 #100

just helping out the downticket candidates . . . at least one Dem candidate is willing to do that DrDan Apr 2016 #101

Hillary is spreading millions of corporate cash in attempt to corrupt and buy Democratic Kip Humphrey Apr 2016 #109

I guess rationalizing the large difference in SDs is to be expected DrDan Apr 2016 #110
