To be honest, I haven't spent the energy on this that you have. Reports say that the DNC broke their bylaws. For the sake of argument and my own time, I'll agree. My question to you is, does this invalidate the nomination? Is there anything that conclusively ties Hillary as a perpetrator in the DNC's actions?You care the DNC favored Clinton over Sanders in the primary
You care the DNC colluded with members of the media
You care the DNC attempted to use Sanders' religious belief against him
Am I safe to assume you agree that the DNC broke their own Bylaws by conducting themselves in this way?
You realize that most of the time when a gun is used by its owner to kill somebody, it is in an act of suicide. I'm not saying you should do such a thing but I'm very comfortable with the thought of you keeping that gun close.Gasp! Are you telling me to kill myself?
Clinton supporters

Is beating Trump more important than democracy?
"moral preening" I like that turn of phrase. Well done.Yes. TRUMP! will end democracy if he can. I believe the Republicans will have little problem with it. They are willing to destroy the Constitution "to save the Constitution". That is my considered opinion.
Your assertion the the DNC has peed in your democracy is nothing more than moral preening.
Sure, if your definition of 'better' doesn't matter
Yeah, that's why I'm not voting for Trump, because I think he's a jerk!...
If you think illegal immigration is the main problem America faces, you don't know enough about America to be qualified to make such an assumption. I would suggest you educate yourself about the things that actually matter.
It's possible to care and still consider it to be unimportant in the overall scheme. First off, I haven't seen anything that shows Hillary had her fingerprints on the action of the DNC. Second, and I know that this will set you off, I don't think the DNC's collusion with "the media" affected the outcome of the nomination. The difference in this election was too strongly tilted toward Hillary. If the primary had come down to one or two percent of the vote then I'd be there with you but Hillary had 31% more votes than Bernie did. Hillary beat Bernie hollow in three of the four important delegations of the Democratic party. That's the real reason Sanders lost.YES. I CARE. And I'm disgusted. The only thing I find more disgusting is the average American's apathy on the subject.

If the answer is yes, then he's won and we've failed.

Who you talkin' "we" Kimosabe? Electing a guy via popular vote, even if you don't like him, is the point of democracy. You not getting your way isn't democracy failing, and there's nothing wrong with representing the interests of the majority. Pandering to minorities has only crippled their communities further, thereby making people dependent on government is sadistic.
Also, that is some dumbass soundbite platitude you've been fed by a co-opted media. DNC leaks say it all, they have to bribe the media to spin their horse shit as a good idea. And here's you lapping it up like a perfect sucker.
Well in that case, the Republic has been teetering on the brink for more than 200 years. Insider bullshit in a political party is nothing new. My guess is that you could count the number of times a major party has had a 100% square rlection. Back room shit is par for the course, but they didn't have email.Funny, that's how I feel about the shameful sham put up by the DNC in place of the people's right to choose.
Lets talk about guns. I learned how to shoot from my grandfather at the age of 6. I have never had an accidental discharge nor have I had an incident with law enforcement.You realize that most of the time when a gun is used by its owner to kill somebody, it is in an act of suicide. I'm not saying you should do such a thing but I'm very comfortable with the thought of you keeping that gun close.
The Green Party is a good place to park a protest vote. The benefit to this country in this election would be realized if the GP collects enough votes to get them over the 5% threshold for government campaign funds. I'm supporting the Greens in some local elections, hoping to build support and credibility at the grass roots.Trump would be a disaster
That's the problem I have. As a guy who really doesn't want to vote for Clinton, I'm not left with many other options.
I don't want to talk about guns, I just want to make sure you have it available to you in case you get depressed.Lets talk about guns. I learned how to shoot from my grandfather at the age of 6. I have never had an accidental discharge nor have I had an incident with law enforcement.
@abandonconflict @Padawanbater2 and @ttystikk don't support hillary and i don't hate them.
@see4 supports gun rights and i don't hate him.
you have been disproven.
i dislike you because you are dumb and racist. end of story.
You are right about him not having a fair shot or maybe he didn't take a good shot. He started awfully late to go up against somebody like Clinton who went through two campaigns with her husband and ran for prez in 2008 and nearly won.I don't think he got a fair shot. The fact that he wasn't is the problem. I can accept his loss if I had faith in a fair process.
He'll remain an independent senator and will be in the fray for a long time to come. Just like Ms. Warren.

Bernie made a good run but he needed more time to get the word out. In my opinion.
What I can't accept is the dismissal of the choice made by 16 million registered Democrats who gave their time to vote. Only 25% of the electorate voted in this primary. That should say something about the people who showed up. I think they are more like you and me than the other 75%. In my opinion, it is elitist to say they are not as able to make a decision in their best interest as we are.
