And Florida panhandle residents are the only people in America who hate muslims,  mexicans and blacks.  And nobody does that in Illinois.

In general Sanders supporters lean more Independent than they do Democrat. I’ve seen some indicators that perhaps 20% of soon to be former Sanders supporters would vote Trump over HRC. An exit poll in WV indicated about half of Sanders supporters would rather vote Trump than HRC.

I’d personally rather see a trained rat in the WH than Trump but I also despise HRC for the lying, deceitful, wall-street loving ineffectual career politician that she is. Impossible situation at best…..

If HRC is so great why is the Dem side of the race so close – even with the massive favoritism shown her by the DNC and the crooked assignment of super delegates? This race has been rigged by the DNC and heavy money from the beginning and that is really inflaming Sanders side. If they feel she stole the election (and she has in collusion with the DNC) than it’s apparent Sanders supporters will have 3 options: don’t vote at all, write in Sanders anyway as a middle finger to HRC, or hold their nose and vote Trump.

Now this is hysterical......at the start of the election cycle the republicans made fun of how the Democrats could not even have a primary battle, and now the argument is that the elections were stolen......incredibly silly.

It's painfully obvious neither you or Sal understand the DNC delegate and Superdelegate rules.. Nor how  Sanders supporters see the issue. Keep your sunglasses on and ignore reality.

It really doesn't matter at this point, HRC will be the nominee (barring some unknown occurrence) and will become the President. I prefer her anyway over the Trumpster but it is entertaining to watch the Democrats in action over their chosen one and see the reaction of you low information voters who don't understand the whole of political machinations.......kind of reminds me of the Republican party self-immolation. ROFLMAO

My guess is that the voters are going to demand changes.  Those changes will come and then slowly but surely the Democrats will change their "rules" back to where the elite, and not the voters, pick their nominee.

Again this vividly demonstrates that the Democrat elite firmly believes they are superior to all others and that the lowly voter, pandered to by each pigeon hole, must be taken care of as they are all incapable of personal responsibility.

How is that "rigged"?

Boards, they won't answer that question because they can't, since Hillary's having won the nomination handily with or without the super delegates makes those delegates nothing more than a rather powerless footnote, and the cry of "rigged" laughable at best.

I don't think you'll find that.

My opinion was that we had two good but flawed candidates in the Democratic primary.

I waited until about two weeks before FLA's primary before making my choice.

You see, I am a one issue voter, and that issue is not opening the seventh seal and ushering in the apocalypse by allowing any of the Republicans from the clown car to have the keys to the Oval Office.

My choice was based solely on my determination of which candidate would be stronger in the general election.

I'm not persuaded by national polling that shows otherwise, because I do not think that Sanders has been properly vetted and the Republicans would have a field day with his socialist policy positions.

On the other hand, Hillary has had everything and the kitchen sink thrown at her, and she's still standing.

My opinion of the Sanders campaign was greatly diminished first by the behavior of his dead-ender, Bernie-or-bust supporters, and then by the increasingly cynical, self-serving, and petty behavior of the candidate himself.

That's quite rich coming from a supporter of the party that brought us Donald J. Trump.

Let's all remember waaaaay back to a few months ago, when Markle was assuring us that Trump would never, ever win the nomination.

Hahahahahahahaha ....

Run, Forrest!  Run!
