    why is the area directly above her upper lip so damn wrinkled?

    It's the aging process.
    Sorry, I had to laugh at the question.

    Have we become so used to seeing women all botoxed up and injected that the natural facial appearances of...life...cause incredulity?

    remember when your parents told you if you make a nasty scowl it may stick. I think that explains it more so because she doesn't have a lot of wrinkles except directly above her upper lip

    :weary: I think you're maybe trying to be funny, but I just feel like there is no need to talk about the way her face happens to be aging. That is just what happens to some people's upper life when they get older. My mom has them too.

    Usually, the smoking habit is the culprit.

    Hillary Clinton Is The Presumptive Democratic Nominee, AP Reports

    So with this news how does a Sanders supporter attempt to say "It's not over yet"?

    Nothing has changed with this announcement. But after tomorrow she will have the trifecta completed; raw votes, pledged delegates, and super delegates.

    Ah.
    Seen.
    So what is the next step for her winning if this is not?

    Convention. The same is true for Trump. You're never the nominee until then.

    So Bernie will be at the convention against Hillary.
    Who will be there against Trump?

    I'm not saying either convention will be contested. I'm saying no one is the nominee officially until the convention.

    One would be a fool to believe what the news is saying right now. The almighty race to be the first media station to report the false news!! And ahead of 5 state primaries!

    Why do you want super delegates to overturn the will of the voters? That seems contrary to Bernie's core message. It's all very confusing.

    Comments like these emphasize how little you know about who and how Superdelegates work. Or is it what you want to believe?

    Comments like these only reach about five Americans, and we already know when super delegates vote. Perhaps you need a different pulpit if you really are intent on educating the unenlightened masses. Do you ever attend meetings at your local Democratic party precinct? I'm sure they're looking for volunteers. You might make a bigger difference there. You seem to be looking to make a difference.

    This is just a riot seeing you defend and rely on the super delegates. Two months ago, you and the rest of his crazies were bashing the SD's. Now they're all you got left. It's like the Twilight Zone.

    Attempting to deflect the issue here and getting personal when things don't work in your favor proves nothing and goes nowhere.

    You are ignoring the point that Clinton has more votes from the people.

    http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/hillary-clinton-clinches-democratic-nomination-according-to-ap/

    pretty simple really....
    But Sanders’s statement — and the AP’s call — distract from the larger point. Clinton will be the Democratic nominee because substantially more Democrats have voted for her. In addition to her elected delegate majority, she’s received approximately 13.5 million votes so far in primaries and caucuses, compared with 10.5 million for Sanders.

    There also isn’t much sign of forward momentum for Sanders, after a strong run of contests in late March and early April. Over the past seven weeks, from the New York primary on April 19 through Puerto Rico on Sunday, Clinton has won 505 pledged delegates compared with 428 for Sanders. Her current lead in our national polling average, 14.4 percentage points, is the widest it has been since mid-February.

    If she gets indicted after the convention it will be the biggest and dumbest mistake ever made by one of our major political parties, bigger even than having Trump as a nominee.

    You are ignoring the point that Clinton has more votes from the people.
    And you are ignoring the point that it is fraud and voter suppression to call the race the night before 5 states vote, as well as counting SDs before they vote.

    nothing compares to Trump and his "Trump U" problems....he's on the hook for fraud where TX and NY attorney generals have basically said the program was fraudulent.

    Democracy in action, this is not. Far from it. Americans should be outraged.

    Please point out where you talk about voter suppression, then.

    This isn't about who will win the nom, this is about a fair and just election process. Which Americans are being robbed of.
