She already is, but that's not official on DU. MineralMan May 2016 #12

No, she is not officially either ... she needs about 100 delegates for that SFnomad May 2016 #15

No, they haven't ... but go ahead, pout some more. They were certainly calling Secretary Clinton SFnomad May 2016 #19

They've been calling her presumptive nominee as well. Sorry if you missed it, but merrily May 2016 #20

I'm sure you can find lots of examples of it ... right? But they weren't. Like I said, they were SFnomad May 2016 #21

Media used it, correctly in your opinion or not, whether you missed it or not, media used it. merrily May 2016 #24

But you can't find any examples of it ... can you? SFnomad May 2016 #25

Most likely could if I tried. Don't care enough to try. merrily May 2016 #34

I didn't think you could find any ... n/t SFnomad May 2016 #35

I didn't look and I have zero reason to care what you thought. merrily May 2016 #36

So an opinion article from a right wing paper said it? Agschmid May 2016 #42

Jim ... the poster said "we're quite used to hearing it" ... why don't you cut the bullshit SFnomad May 2016 #43

I also await the examples of the media using "presumptive nominee"... Agschmid May 2016 #30

If you expect me to dig around for TV broadcasts on this, you will wait a long time. merrily May 2016 #33

Oh I'm stocked on snacks... Don't worry about me. Agschmid May 2016 #38

Your attention is respectfully directed to #39 in this thread. (n/t) Jim Lane May 2016 #40

I use an iPhone, if you want me to see a post link to it please. Agschmid May 2016 #41

Actually, I tried to link to it when I originally posted, but for some reason that didn't work. Jim Lane May 2016 #45

Yup. Agschmid May 2016 #46
