typical of a hillary supporter not to care about the mountain of flaws but vote anyway because "shes a woman!" or "she's not trump!"


If I were a liberal/democrat I would undoubtedly vote for her b/c she has the most detailed progressive proposals that have the highest likelihood of being implemented.

I don't think this is what the majority of voters think when they vote

I think his answer was pretty clear. He couldn't give a shit.


That's fine, but it isn't an answer to the question. It's an opinion on the scandal, sure.

Let's think of reasons why people wouldn't concede that the DNC should remain neutral among nominees...

Hm....perhaps the DNC favored the candidate they liked more in this particular election cycle?

Where is the respect for rules? Should the DNC even pledge to be neutral anymore?

I stand against any candidate that intentionally excites racists and bigots and promises to further divide us

I stand against the most hawkish candidate which is the one throwing around more torture and the murder of families of suspected terrorists

I'm against deporting millions of people away from their communities and friends that they have become a part of

There is a chunk of America albeit shrinking chunk that still hold hate and ignorance tight at night and they deserve to be defeated in November by rejecting the man that represents them

you're so repetitive and programmed I don't even know why I respond

I would have voted for sanders kasich or clinton

clinton would do better than both and kasich would be better than sanders but I wouldn't lose any sleep over any of the 3

and as I've already said if this were all switched around and I still wouldn't care

They're not beholden to rules, they're beholden to voters.

The party has a right to make ideological decisions, and Sanders had been an Independent for a very long time. This might damage their credibility with voters, but there's no rule of fairness to compel them to accept any outsider irrespective of whether they represent the party.

Are you sure about there being no rule?

"The Chairperson shall be responsible for ensuring that the national officers and staff of the Democratic National Committee maintain impartiality and evenhandedness during the Democratic Party Presidential nominating process."

Why do you think DWS is stepping down as DNC chair right before the DNC convention? Just for fun? Or perhaps because the DNC email leak implicated her and the DNC's impartiality during the 2016 DNC nomination process?

Oh my god, internal communications for a political organization were blunt about political realities?!


This will not do.

It hurts their credibility, but it's a decision they had to make and made.

It was exposed and became unpopular given the support Sanders accumulated, so they made Schultz take the fall, not least because she's an unpleasant woman whom Sanders has had it out for.
