I would rather Hillary adopt tuition free college and Medicare for all and a few others. Notably I think Hillary should be held to the fire and FORCED to sign a pledge to support Net Neutrality or agree to give up all the money she currently has.

Bernie should negotiate to abolish the superdelegate system in return for dropping out. [View all] DCBob May 2016 OP

fuck that. hil should.she's the risky candidate. elehhhhna May 2016 #1

Pssst. He's the losing candidate. grossproffit May 2016 #21

He is rapidly losing all his bargaining chips. MoonRiver May 2016 #2

Yes, I agree. DCBob May 2016 #3

How many bargaining chips does O'Malley have these days? Armstead May 2016 #23

And the DNC would tell him to go to hell... Human101948 May 2016 #25

I would totally support that. morningfog May 2016 #4

I dont know what it would take to get it done but I think it's a possibility. DCBob May 2016 #6

Bernie Sanders is a demagogue woolldog May 2016 #42

Sure that might work, but Bernie has given no sign that BootinUp May 2016 #5

He might change his tune after today and he sees his numbers tanking in CA. DCBob May 2016 #8

I sincerely doubt it. He's still openly going after her. grossproffit May 2016 #33

I disagree. He withdrew the complaint against the DNC. morningfog May 2016 #9

Why should jehop61 May 2016 #11

I think many are already leaning that way in the party. DCBob May 2016 #14

Sanders has committed to contesting the Convention until the first ballot, which he will loose. Agnosticsherbet May 2016 #26

That is one good option. northernsouthern May 2016 #27

it's really quite silly to whine about the SD's when it is clear they will not change the course DrDan May 2016 #35

He's holding an offsuit 2 and 7 ... NurseJackie May 2016 #37

That might work if the Sanders campaign was running on principles workinclasszero May 2016 #38

Once again, I have just talked myself into the hard reality of voting for Hillary in the general Vinca May 2016 #43
