26. If a tragedy occurs and Clinton is the Nom
Wed May 11, 2016, 12:29 PM
May 2016

Putting a gag on Bernie by burying him in the VP would make me vote against that ticket. Under this impossible scenario we would need Bernie in teh Senate even more than we do now. Someone would have teo lead the charge to stop her highness from starting more wars, Killing the Safety nets, etc. People like Pelosi and Reid sure as hell won't do it.

This must be the 100th post with this dumb ass suggestion. Cut it Out.
