Nov 2015

The reality of this is, DWS has been perfectly fair to Sanders throughout the whole primary process.

The entire narrative of the "DNC and DWS is AGAINST BERNIE!!!11!!11!1!1!1!" meme has zero basis in reality. It's more from that crowd that wants to believe the only reason they don't have everything they want is that there are conspiracies arrayed against them. One of their silly other memes is that if only Obama confronted Republicans and "used the bully pulpit" we would have a progressive nirvana right now with Republicans being forced to vote for Single Payer, a $35/hr minimum wage, 100% clean and renewable energy grid, and complete equality for everyone not only in law but in everyone's mind.

Obama is part of that conspiracy you see. In case it's necessary
