    I'm a Bernie supporter... been following his crazy ass for years from afar... always rooted for him in his local elections... happily voted for him this year... love the issues he brought into the mainstream democratic discussion... love everything about the man and his candidacy

    and I have zero problem with what sarah silverman said...

    Not that I could vote, but besides that, I feel the same way.

    Her job was to unite the people from the podium. Instead, she bullies them. Speaking from a podium does NOT give her license to insult people who worked 10,000 more hours and don't get paid or promote themselves when they're doing it. Sarah used her platform to bully and insult people who don't support Hillary, and it's shameful. Good luck with her "comedienne" career... she must feel so proud of herself.

    No, she didn't bully them. She told them that Bernie lost, get over it.

    There is no way there will be a united democratic party.

    Watch that video. The woman to vote for: HRC.

    Votes are being cast differently, they changed the roll call from being a floor vote -a democratic floor vote - to having delegates meet at specific hotels to vote by sign in sheets. This is a violation of democratic rules. I hope everyone is happy with how corrupt this all is. :smile:

    Historic because a dishonest, corrupt and completely untrustworthy woman is at the helm.

    No, she didn't bully them. She told them that Bernie lost, get over it.

    And you say you're smart! :lol: Get over yourself. The reason she is there is to build unity. She just got people to boo her.

    No, I said I was smart enough to know that a few emails did not cause people to not vote for sanders. Silverman was not bullying. I've read 10 different "reviews" of silvermans speech and have not heard the term bully in one of them. So you've either got to look up the definition of bully or you're one of those sanders supporters that are being ridiculous.

    Silverman was not angry at the crowd. Her and Frankens speeches didn't take as much time as expected and they had to stretch the time to allow Paul Simon to finish getting set up. So she did was she does for a living, improvised.

    http://www.cbsnews.com/news/sarah-silverman-bernie-supporters-ridiculous-reactions/
    "It wasn't scripted at all," Silverman later told CNN, explaining that she and Franken had been told that the program was running ahead of schedule and they needed to stretch for time. No stranger to ad-libbing, Silverman proceeding to make one of the night's most high-profile comments.... As for Silverman herself, her only further commentary on social media was to express her continued admiration for Sanders, despite what she might think of his more ardent supporters.

    Just watched the last part of the vote. Noticed the incredible amount of demographic diversity among the delegates as compared to last week where there was basically no diversity.

    Shocking I know :dizzy:
