As they definitely shouldn't!!!! jimfields33 Feb 2020 #5

Then he is going back on his word, because he agreed those rules still_one Feb 2020 #38

I think for this I'm ok with him evolving. jimfields33 Feb 2020 #48

Like he evolved on his medical records? brooklynite Feb 2020 #54

Not sure that's in the constitution jimfields33 Feb 2020 #57

You are right it isn't. It is someone going back on his word. There is a name for that still_one Feb 2020 #62

I know. There's two items he's going to have to explain before the general jimfields33 Feb 2020 #63

I suspect you are right still_one Feb 2020 #66

I'm not sure where your are going with the "Not sure that's in the constitution" comment sdfernando Feb 2020 #69

Bazinga!! onetexan Feb 2020 #65

It isn't a question of him evolving. He was part of these rules and agreed to it still_one Feb 2020 #58

The 70% will. n/t pnwmom Feb 2020 #11

Exactly. These rules were agreed to by all the candidates including Sanders, now he goes back on still_one Feb 2020 #37

Also, in 2016, he went to the convention with the aim of persuading enough delegates pnwmom Feb 2020 #40

Exactly. I really hope people understand what is happening. You had an excellent thread the other still_one Feb 2020 #42

re: "in 2016, he went to the convention with the aim of persuading enough delegates to switch" thesquanderer Feb 2020 #47

I guess he forgot to tell his supporters. pnwmom Feb 2020 #50

Assuming Biden wins South Carolina... W_HAMILTON Feb 2020 #6

You can't really compare 2016 to 2020 on the Democratic side juliuswest Feb 2020 #41

nonsense CalFione Feb 2020 #23

Florida alone has something like 250 delegates. Blue_true Feb 2020 #85

Bernie is not winning the nomination Moderateguy Feb 2020 #77

I am sure Sanders supporters will attempt to get DUers to accept their version of reality. But emmaverybo Feb 2020 #78

Cool story bro. awesomerwb1 Feb 2020 #80

Are you kidding me? Blue_true Feb 2020 #84

No, Nevada is not a big delegate state...after super Tuesday, there will be a winnowing and then Demsrule86 Feb 2020 #86

If he wins both NV *and* SC, then it'll be tough to see him not winning the nomination. Garrett78 Feb 2020 #91
