    Bernie has said that he won’t commit to the party’s eventual nominee because the system is rigged. Fuck him. Throw his ass to the curb. Disinvite him from the Dem debates. Or his ass should officially switch affiliations and agree to support the eventual nominee. Prick.
    Now could he have been doing the classic.... I'm going to win so of course im headed to the convention.  I won't hypothesize a scenario where I lose..
    That's a possibility...I just don't trust him based on his past actions. The order of the state elections are different this year so that could change things. We shall see. Hopefully everyone remembers the main objective. 
    I don't trust him either,  but if his statement was in the context of what I said,  then nbd. But if it's the way H2M described,  then F that guy.
    You decide.

    Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.   

    Running for president has changed him or exposed who he really is, and his rally crowds feed his convoluted ego. Somehow it all looks kinda familiar.  If he does what he did in 2016, the DNC needs to step in early. And that article makes it clear he is determined to be the winner whatever it takes. Fuck him  and his bros.

    I agree.
    He’s not a democrat. Look what the Repubs met happen to their party when they allowed a populist non-republican on stage and on the ballot.
    Look What happend when the Dems picked a safe regular Joe democrat - Hillary. Kerry, Gore

    Elizabeth Warren:

    So true. Truthteller Warren.

    Everybody trying to out Spanish each other was pretty funny.
    Warren did good. I personally think Delaney did awesome , but he got only a few times to respond. Castro did good and Beto has issues.

    Booker is good, when he finally enters.

    But: "i do not only think health care is a human right, but an american right"

    Haha.

    Like "human right" isn't enough.

    Beto is going into pre-written paragraphs every time. 

    "Tonight, in homes all across america you have people, fathers, mothers, sons, daughters who are struggling... yada yada"

    Compared to Warren and Booker

    To me... it feels weird when everyone feel the need to pronounce Oscar and Valerias name with an Spanish accent. Even the guy asking questions did it. 

    NOW BOOKER GOES INTO SPANISH TOO! What the hell. Hoping Warren does it too.
