The GOP has been trumped. I love seeing them squirm.

The Dems are actively working to alter results. I love that emails are showing the truth.

The Libertarians nominated a CFR Globalist as VP. Nothing to love here.

The LA Times calls for a coup if Trump wins. Nary a peep.

Hillary proves over and over that she is the most evil person alive.


Still going to vote? Voting validates all of the above. Good Luck.

    Clinton supporters don't give a rats ass if she shoots someone in the face. They'll come up with some excuse as they always do than blame Russia and Trump.

    Quite an apt summation by the way.

    No offense but you're wrong, it's non voting that validates all of the above even if it comes down to choose the least dangerous candidacy.

    I read an article this morning talking about wasted 3rd party votes. While I disagree with that the article did make a good point about creating viable 3rd parties at the local and state level. That is what will give the country a real shot at creating competition for a 3rd party at the presidential level.

    BTW, welcome back unsung

    Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

    A. I don't get offended, because I don't use feelings when making decisions like these.

    B. I'm not wrong. Your participation in this system reinforces their entire charade. It is fixed to benefit the few. Clearly Sanders people can see that with this email release. Their entire system depends on division and distraction.

    C. I long for the day of a complete collapse of this political system. The system has become so power based and corrupt.

    D. I don't know how anyone can trust an election result after this.

    What's funny about all this is that Clinton continues to deny that the DNC was and continues to be rigged, while at the same time she says her "good friend" Debbie Wasserman Schultz will continue as her honorary campaign manager. She's fooling no one here and she looks like a jackass.

    She doesn't really want more votes does she. Completely out of touch.

    At this point she knows a larger percentage of us will never vote for her. Now it's time to flex some muscle and bring some of her soldiers home. there is a new battle on the horizon and I'm sure we'll see more of it within hours.

    The age of information. Interesting times.

    Very interesting. The difference between now and decades ago though, was that journalism investigated our government officials when the media was strictly a public service. Journalists and media (mainstream), they're now on the same side and work for each other. (that's what privatization and the media own by six corporations gets us). So we have to rely on this new information age for the truth because we're not gonna get it from any other sources.

    Not sure if you saw this or how accurate it is, but since the FBI and the justice department didn't want to talk about the Clinton foundation, some private citizens did and this is some of what was discovered(I'm sure most of it has already been posted)

    A true Sanders supporters would never vote for Clinton, then again he ended up endorsing her though.

    In 08 and 12 when I supported Ron Paul I voted 3rd party after he dropped out, and he didn't endorse the nominee of the party that just worked to get him out.
  • unsungunsung Posts: 9,487
    I guess where is Bernie? Why doesn't he rescind his endorsement of her with these revelations?

    Lets pretend for 5 minutes that none of this happened. No emails from inside the DNC tried to slow a Sanders namination. Would the outcome have been different?

    What I am finding on here, is that some people think that if your a Bernie supporter, you're going to do what he wants his supporters to do. But the thing about Bernie supporters is that we don't follow blindly. We're not going to vote establishment when we are so very anti-establishment. He may go back on his word but it doesn't mean we will. Fear will not play a factor in who I vote for.

    Sanders needs to get some Ted Cruz balls. At first I understood his sacrifice, I didn't agree but I understood. To see him on TV as recently as yesterday and to hear him say we need to do everything we can to elect Clinton broke my heart. I donated a lot of money and time to fight against the establishment, and now he's basically turning his back on us. I get that he's been in politics for decades and that he too is a politician, I'm not blind to that, but I thought he and the movement was about a greater cause- it's about "US", not her or him.
    F' you Sanders for saying that! Rant over

    Anyhow- welcome back ...

    yes and no ... if you add other caveats to your IF - such as a more objective media outlet ... no voter suppression ... etc ... then I would say the outcome could very well be different ...

    but either way - turning a blind eye to methods that are anti-democratic regardless of whether the outcome would have changed is really a self-rationalization of a personal bias ...

    Yes and no? You can't change the media. Fox is always going to be right and CNN is always going to be left. Always. So I ask again, does it really matter that there were a few emails stating that some people in the DNC preferred Clinton to sanders. No, it wouldn't have mattered. I say partly because sanders ran as an anti establishment candidate, when he is in fact part of the establishment.

    It really seems to me that the anti-Clinton faction is a group of single issue voters.

    Do they not care about anything beyond establishment vs anti-establishment?

    If you vote on a broad range of issues, the choice of Trump or Clinton is obvious, even if it uncomfortable.
