    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.

    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:

    If you read through Hillary is at -30 while Trump is -28. She shattered two glass ceilings.

    The Sanders delegates walked out immediately after the last vote and went to the media area, and gathered quietly. Eventually they stopped letting people in. I was watching the whole thing on an Independent network. The walkout eventually moved to the streets and there are peaceful protests in a few places. Live video shows that the convention is half full, if you're watching pay attention to how many people you actually hear in the background, it is very quiet. And the media is not showing how empty it is in there.

    The protest is due to being not being heard, unequal representation, voices not being heard, forced unity. The convention is about compromise and uniting not shutting half of the delegates down.

    Haha . As they just showed a panoramic view with not an empty seat

    There was a sit in at a media tent. 100 people or so.

    Protesters are from center city. A new one just got down there. Just calmed down a bit after the flag burnings

    Yeah I saw that. Now go to some alternative sources and social networks and find out what's really going on.

    Or do you think the corporate media is telling you the truth and that all delegates are in the building applauding Bill Clinton

    Jill Stein was live not too long ago in the middle of a protest speaking. One protest of many. Talk is that Nina Turner is going to talk at one of them soon.

    FDR Park is one of a few locations.

    umm, seen several different perspective shots around the arena. Place looks packed. Would say most are (75%) or more are engaged in this speech.

    show me where to look for the live half empty arena shots.

    I saw personal video of a guy standing there talking about it when there is a presenter. But don't believe me believe the TV, cause the TVs always right and social media is making shit up

    Plenty of local philly reporters (philly mag, Philly voice) with no skin in the game and they have nothing of the sort

    And yeah; not an empty seat in the arena
