    not all, just those who think, because he lost because of fraud or voter suppression. i mean his thread still gets hits here and he lost.
    But that's not what you said- you made a generalization about Bernie supporters. Not everyone is a sore loser. And just because Bernie lost, I wouldn't assume what he brought to the U.S. political arena is irrelevant.

    I wouldn't ignore anyone, and I mean that. Then again I'm not a beta so I can handle disagreement. My feeling won't get hurt.
    There are very, very few people I would ignore. For the most part I really like to see full discussions, and disagreements and conflicts don't phase me in the long run either. But I can think of maybe a couple of people who I'd probably want to ignore because I find their contributions worthless.

    I've been attacked personally, but I honestly don't even know anymore who did it. It's fine.

    he is a Bernie supporter and has no proof. just a lot of conjecture. even Bernie himself has said that any voter suppression didn't make a difference in the outcome and he would have lost anyway. Bernie supporters are sore losers.

    But I've asked you how to get rid of gerrymandering and money in politics... from the bottom up. What are your solutions?
    Then maybe this needs to be an holistic mobilization combating corruption on top and bottom levels. On the top, we have just over four years to make change. On the bottom, could efforts to have Congress represent the people again not start immediately?

    We know that the repubs will never support getting rid of gerrymandering. Their ranks keep diminishing so that is their only hope in some cases.

    There are people who don't believe there is such a thing as voter fraud and voter suppression? I didn't know that?

    Another question: Bernie supporters are sore losers? All of us or just those of us with geek stink breath?

    Thanks in advance for answers. It's good to know these things.

    Yes, Brian. We have to go through this again of explaining exactly what happened with Bernie and all the bullshit cheating that went with it.

    Citing Sam Bee? Who's an unabashad Hillary supporter? Not credible at all. I didn't even watch it. Because I've watched her terrible show plenty, because I liked her on Jon Stewart.

    Great in theory, but not happening, since money, gerrymandering, and the lack of term limits currently rule. That's why Bernie was so awesome and really struck a chord with the People of this country. We do have progressive reps in politics who we have to get elected to swing the table back to the People, but everything is bought and paid for. Thank Hillary for that. She bought and paid Superdelegates. She and DWS repealed Obama's rule to not allow lobbyist money into the pres. elections. Obama tried. Hillary reversed. Who do you support again?

    But Brian, it's not a matter of not believing in voter fraud. It's a matter of acknowledging that it isn't a relevant problem given the numbers. I think there is plenty of evidence supporting that view.
    Voter suppression is a whole other story, and I absolutely believe that is a problem.

    Parody is not meant to be credible. Well, at least it isn't usually meant to be...

    I would be completely against the plug in. If you don't like what people say, go somewhere else. No safe spaces.
