    It's not a US presidential election if the 6 Corporations that own the media don't make/steal 2 BILLION in adverts dollars every few years from the sole two parties.

    ^^^
    I don't get it,
    Presumptive?
    So why not just have the election today and be done with it?

    So true.

    Looks like Sanders is going to back Clinton in the interest of defeating the real enemy.

    I have received 8 glossy card stock mailers telling me to vote for Rob Portman, because he stands against Obama's war on coal :rofl:

    I am so excited to vote for Strickland (who isn't awesome, honestly) and every few days I get these colorful reminders of how badly I dislike Portman lol

    I understand it's a numbers game, but the amount of money wasted on people who's minds are already decided is just sad.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see S. Brown on the ticket as VP.

    Doesn't mean his supporters will. And according to one poll since so many are fans here of polls, yesterday's TYT poll of if Bernie Sanders supporters are going to vote for Clinton or not, 87% said they will not.

    Can you link to the poll? Those numbers are inverted to the other polls on the same subject.

    It looks like it isn't a real poll, so it is subject to self selection sampling, and will have that bias. Not a random, statistical sample. You can go here:
    https://www.tytnetwork.com/2016/06/09/will-bernie-voters-back-hillary-general-election-poll/

    When you watch the video, hover your mouse over the 'l' in the upper right corner and click, a little box pops up and it will ask you "How will you vote in the election?". Your choices are "Vote for Hillary" or "Never Hillary". So currently the results are 17% of TYT viewers who chose to participate in the poll are voting for Hillary and 82% are not. It doesn't say how many have participated. But again, self selection bias is at play here.

    That's what I figured. It's a survey, not a valid scientific poll. Shocking! Thanks Jeff.

    Never said it was a scientific poll but keep assuming. This is my last comment to you.

    I would love to see that, Brown is awesome and it would introduce him to a ton of people that would like him...maybe even pave the road to the Presidency someday.

    Why would a Bernie supporter want Clinton?
    Same-Sex Marriage
    Race Relations
    Immigration
    Defense Spending
    Foreign Wars
    Female Reproductive Rights
    Climate Change
    Social Security/Medicare/Medicaid
    Supreme Court Appointees
    Class
    Decorum
    Dignity
    Vocabulary
    Attitude

    Those are a few of the reasons I (as an ardent Sanders supporter) will vote for Clinton.
    The sad reality is it's not about what she offers on these issues in her own right, it's about what Trump (and the GOP at large) is offering in opposition to her, which is regression in nearly every field of play.

    Don't waste your time trying to show that she's a big money loving, flip flopping, political opportunist, dishonest hawk... I understand exactly who she is and what she offers, and it looks pretty tolerable compared to the Drumpf.

    It must be a terrible position to be in when you have to vote for a tolerable ruler.
    You have two choices, Hillary or Trump.
