Showing Original Post only (View all)Some Sanders supporters don't want the Senator's campaign to give their information to HRC and DNC [View all]

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders famously declared last year that Americans are "sick and tired" of hearing about presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clintons "damn emails" and her private server controversy.
But it was Sanders emails that generated much of the talk over the weekend at the Peoples Summit, a gathering of about 3,000 Sanders supporters who are trying to figure out how to keep the far-left momentum from his campaign alive once he exits the presidential race.
The Vermont senators presidential campaign has developed a formidable and valuable email list of donors that helped rake in nearly $207.7 million from about seven million individuals who donated in small amounts.
Asked Friday if Sanders should hand over his donor list to the Democratic National Committee or the Clinton campaign, a panel moderated by Democracy Now! co-host Juan Gonzalez voiced their opposition.

I stand by my hides. Not a one of them was out of line. 4-3 Sanders juries means squat pal.

Well, I didn't want his people taking my information from Clinton's database but they did it anyway.

That's so funny to you, like your Russians can't allegedly hack into Sanders' data base too.

Candidates don't give their lists; they sell them. Or more precisely, they trade them
