Thread: 2016 Democratic US Presidential Candidates

Oh look Albert's googling anonymous again.

I think he's trying to find out how he can be a "hacktivist".

Plenty, that's what the shill is paid for.

sanders seems like a good man, but this isn't the job for him. he should stay in the senate or maybe take on a cabinet position. or even better, chair of the SEC.

i haven't seen anything that is going to prevent clinton from being inaugurated next January.

Interesting opinion piece from the Washington Post, about how the Sanders campaign is a game changer, especially as Hillary steals the nomination with the corporate sponsored superdelegates.

As I've said before, I like Bernie on policy but Hillary is not stealing the nomination with corporate super delegates. The Democratic party instituted super delegates in 1984 and the number has actually been reduced since the practice was introduced. If people, particularly young people, think the process is unfair they should get more involved in reforming the party processes at the grass roots level instead of whining about them. Obama won the election in 2008 despite the existence of super delegates, Bernie can do the same if he wins enough primary delegates to take the nomination to the convention.

This is all Sanders bullshit.

In the event, the “supers” have never tilted the nomination; they always line up with the candidate who won the most delegates in the caucuses and primaries. That’s essentially what happened in 2008: Clinton had an early lead in superdelegates, but as Barack Obama started winning caucuses and primaries, he wound up picking up almost all the undecided supers and even some defectors from Clinton.

^ still it seems like the superdelegate goes with the money.

Sanders seems to have the growing populous support, it will be very interesting to watch.

It doesn't matter how it 'seems', does it?

It's all about the numbers.

ALBANY -- Hillary Clinton slightly widened her lead against Bernie Sanders with just days left before the Democratic primary in New York, a poll Friday found.

Clinton edged the Vermont governor 57 percent to 40 percent, the NBC News/Wall Street Journal/Marist Poll found. That's up slightly from the 14 percentage-point lead Clinton had in a Marist poll earlier this week.

Wow even the mainstream moronmedia admits the system is rigged, that it's all a set up to crown the SELECTED hillary.

Harry will be tugging his little pecker about it, and Landreth? apartment that daddy bought him will be flooded with his man juice.

MSNBC is basically Maddow and a bunch of right wing arse kissers, you moron.

They have followed Fox's business model because they weren't making any money.

MSM indeed.

You fool.

Is that so? Better update or flame wiki:

MSNBC has been accused of biased reporting in favor of liberal politics. Since the late 2000s, MSNBC has openly embraced left-wing policies, acknowledging this stance with a 2010 marketing campaign called "Lean Forward". Further, in September 2013, MSNBC launched its revamped official website under the tagline, "What Progressives Have Been Waiting For."

Commentators have described MSNBC as having a bias which favored left-wing politics and the Democratic Party. In 2011 Politico referred to MSNBC as "left-leaning."[14] In reference to changes in the channel's evening programming, senior vice president of NBC News Phil Griffin has said that "it happened naturally. There isn't a dogma we're putting through. There is a 'Go for it.

Joe Scarborough, the guy in the vid, has his own show for spewing right wing garbage and talking points.

Yeah so right wing that they are defending Bernie!

Well then you would be happy to vote for Hitler then? Stalin? You could ignore all that "old dirt" and happily vote for them if your preferred media outlet tells you to

Yes because Hillary is exactly like Hitler and Stalin, exactly.

Wait, belay that, she's probably worse. Than both. Combined.

Actually if Hitler and Stalin had a child and Satan was the surrogate and a process of genetic manipulation was used to maximize the evil that would be Hillary.

Since this is a forum, you're entitled to your opinion. However, show me any facts that back it up.

So, it's your opinion that Morning Joe Scarborough is a liberal?

Are you fucking serious?




Added: I think you are. Is this "opinion"?

Scarborough served in the United States House of Representatives from 1995 to 2001 as a Republican from the 1st district of Florida.

Morning Joe defends torture.

Not only is MSNBC not "mainstream media", but more to the point it's owned by Comcast.

The MSNBC source said, “Going left was a brilliant strategy while it lasted and made hundreds of millions of dollars for Comcast, but now it doesn’t work anymore…The goal is to move away from left-wing TV.”
