55. so, you agree with clinton
Mon May 2, 2016, 06:35 PM
May 2016

The nine million votes to date and the however many delegates do not matter. ha ha ha I suspect she will be the nominee and I suspect she will win. My primary is not until June and I would like to vote before the grand climax of clinton giving her victory speech before the convention begins. Have patience. You will get what you want. The primary process has tried the patience of many this year. There is nothing good about stopping now. The good is in every candidate getting their message out as often as is possible. The good is having a platform that accurately reflects Democrats. The good is having an honorable primary process.
