Related: About this forumHillary's cheating caught on camera in Nevada (Coup by corporations and Military Industrial Complex)
This is a coup by the corporations and the Military Industrial Complex.
As you can see clearly, a motion for recount is placed before the chair. A male comes and whispers something to the woman because Hillary's women are just like her who cannot think for themselves and and take orders from men.
In response to the male command, she ignores the motion for a recount and claims that there is a motion to change the rules.
The entire crowd shouts NO but she claims the motion to change the rules has passed!
This is now out in the open. Gadhafi and Saddam Hussein had better Democratic processes than Hillary Clinton.
The Clinton family has subverted the Democratic process and reduced America into a banana republic. This is coup in the making and very shameful.

(362 posts)Hillary and her cohorts in the DLC created the caucuses. Don't blame Bernie for it. You just admitted that the Democratic Party leadership is not Democratic.

(3,473 posts)What kind of drugs are you doing? Caucuses have been around for a lot longer than Secretary Clinton and the DLC. They didn't "create" them.

(1,473 posts)A few days ago I came across a post where a BoB supporter said he didn't believe in the SCOTUS argument . It was a stupid reason to vote for Hillary"
I explained that Ruth Bader Ginsburg was probably going to retire or pass away and obviously Scalia will be replaced soon,
and they said, "Who the 'F' is Ruth Bader Ginsburg?"
TwilightZone
(25,517 posts)Even though Bernie's a member. After I explained what it was, the poster still didn't believe it because "Bernie's the only progressive in Congress".
That being said, not knowing who RBG knocks that one out of the park.

https://gobling.wordpress.com/2016/02/04/when-progressives-run-from-bernie/
A ton of his supporters really believe "Bernie's the only progressive in Congress" and that no one else has ever fought for Progressive legislation since FDR or Kennedy.
It's a slap in the face to all the progressives who have been raked over the coals by the GOP i.e. corporate America's representation in Congress.

(25,517 posts)They kind of lost me when they proclaimed that John Conyers was a sellout, but had no idea who he was or what he'd done. That was almost as good as declaring Planned Parenthood part of the establishment.
I think a lot of them are political neophytes, so they're mostly unaware of anything in the political arena prior to Sanders deciding to run for president.

(51,388 posts)each candidate receives that go to the national convention and the delegates that will vote on it.
It is at the convention just as in states with primary elections that they decide the delegates that go to the national convention.
Just because a state uses a caucus for their elections doesn't make state party conventions a caucus too. They serve different functions.
CoffeeCat
(24,411 posts)got her mitts on them. Now they're corrupt as hell. Her little flying monkeys will do cheat however they can and exploit the system a million different ways.
Caucuses used to be transparent, open and smoothly run. In 2008, with record participation--no problems in our Iowa caucuses. Smooth as silk.
This year, with a 30 percent drop in attendance, it was a shit show on steroids. Because that's how you cheat. Create chaos, wreak havoc and you can get away with stealing it all.
What a joke our entire primary has been. One shit show after another--state after state. Rigged caucuses, voter suppression, not enough voting machines, "clerical errors", voter suppression, disappearing registrations, 6-hour voting lines, exit polls that don't match the election results.
Investigations in Arizona, Illinois, New York and Delaware is being looked at now.
What a travesty. How did we get so far down this rabbit hole?
creeksneakers2
(7,486 posts)by a very slim margin. Subsequently, I read a celebration here of Bernie winding up with more delegates than she did at a Nevada convention. The Sanders supporters were fine with that. They loved it.
Now things are getting even crazier.
Are you implying Hillary had anything to do with election problems? That's ridiculous if you are.

IMO, everything happened quickly & when announcement was made she said so sadly we just saw an election stolen. Interesting that she is a Bernie supporter but her father (who is a former Congressman} supports Hillary. She said her father was disgusted, ripped up his ballot & walked out. Any DU member also see this??

Samantha
(9,314 posts)Sanders was unquestionably polling much better than Clinton right up until the actual caucus. Harry Reid rode into town that Wednesday to save the day. He called one of his "friends" who controlled a very large business and asked him to let his workers off to go to the caucus and vote for Hillary. They were given the time and ran over and said they were there to vote. It was overwhelming. They were allowed to vote, and to speed things up for those who were not registered, they were handed the registration sheet, told to fill it out afterwards and turn it in. In other words, many of those people who voted were not even registered when they did.
Sam
Demsrule86

RichVRichV
(885 posts)Hillary delegates didn't bother to show up. That's on the Hillary campaign not Bernie's. He didn't write the rules (the state party with the backing of the DNC did), and he and his supporters followed the rules as written. So how did they cheat?
Demsrule86
(68,825 posts)But here is the thing...I don't care what tricks you employed or how clever you thought you were ...those were real voters who had a right to have their votes count. What you did was morally reprehensible...and can not be defended.
RichVRichV
(885 posts)1) It was mailed by the state party, not Bernie supporters.
2) Bernie supporters got it also, they simply chose to ignore it and show up anyways.
3) The letter didn't lie. It stated that if you registered your presidential preference would be counted (regardless of showing up to the actual caucus). That was the truth. It specifically says so in the Nevada State Delegate Selection Plan (which are the rules the state caucuses follow). It specifically said people could register on the Friday before the convention and that was the requirement for having their votes counted for presidential preference. Page 8, 2a. The letter was completely truthful.
Learn the damn rules of the party before you start arguing things!

(110,159 posts)telling them they had to show, she admitted it and was fired, it was a group effort of Sanders supporters.
RichVRichV
(885 posts)You are doubling down on your lies. Prove the accusation. Once again the email was factual.
Here is the email in question:
And here is the rules that it pertains to:
That is directly from the Nevada Democratic Delegate Selection Plan, pages 8 and 9.
Hillary didn't lose Clark county because her delegates were lied to and didn't show up to the convention. She lost it because too many of her delegates didn't bother to register at all! The alternates were seated because there were not enough registrations (from Friday or Saturday) to fill all the spots. Even Bernie's registrations rates were down for the convention, just not as bad as hers. Unlike the round one caucuses, the convention count for presidential preference were done via registration forms, not hand counts.
And finally if Christine Kramar was such a lying cheating person, why did even the Hillary supporters on the credentials committee join her in the protest when she was ousted? Because it was a partisan move by the Hillary campaign to gain an upper hand and completely against the rules as outlined. it had nothing whatsoever to do with cheating.
Demsrule86
(68,825 posts)and tossed out of the convention.
RichVRichV
(885 posts)Her removal had absolutely nothing to do with any emails sent to delegates. The charge was sharing confidential emails with the Bernie campaign (totally different emails than the ones discussed here). The charge was ludicrous on it's merits. Anything going through the credentials committee had to be non-partisan and shared with all sides.
Even the two Hillary supporters on the credentials committee acknowledged that and protested her ouster with her.
Demsrule86
(68,825 posts)and acted in an unprofessional manner? We all know she did it and deserved to be fired...and possibly prosecuted.
RichVRichV
(885 posts)I'm sure you'll ignore it. Hillary supporters are great at ignoring any evidence that goes against your bias, no matter how obvious it is pointed out.
Demsrule86
(68,825 posts)She sent a letter with the wrong time on it to Clinton people...she was lucky she was just fired...could have been prosecuted. FACT...Hillary Clinton won the Nevada caucus. FACT 2...Bernie supporter tried to overturn the primary...FACT3 They were stopped cold and are crying because they were not allowed to cheat. FACT4 Those few votes are meaningless for Bernie as he has lost the primary and all the bad behavior won't change that.
RichVRichV
(885 posts)Brock Nation Review?
Since you once again provided no evidence I'm going to presume this has to do with the email sent to delegates you keep going on about (which was sent by the party, not by any Bernie supporter). If there is another letter you are speaking of please provide a link to it.
Now here's a copy of the dastardly email in question:
Now here is a direct quote from the Nevada Democratic Delegate Selection Plan, page 8, 2a.
Oh look everything in that email follows the state parties rules on when registration is supposed to happen. The 3 hour mandatory registration time on Friday was met. The 2 hours before convention convened on Saturday was met. The keeping registration open until noon on Saturday was met. The dates were correct. Once again, the email was truthful. No one was lied to. Bernie supporters didn't cheat. Large numbers of Hillary supporters just didn't bother to register for the second round. That's why they lost it.
I know I'm not going to ever convince you know matter how obvious the evidence is. You're stuck in your bubble and locked into bias overload. However I won't let you set the narrative with a pack of lies that you can't even attempt to back up.

(15,805 posts)That's what I see from your writing:
Men give commands.
Women cannot think for themselves.
Women don't take orders from men.
Welcome back to the 60s, and from there you proceed to make an unfounded allegation based on a whisper that no one could hear. Again, there's nothing here that provides any inkling that there is some "coup by the corporations and the Military Industrial Complex". None of the claims you've made appear any any other credible news reports. Which leads to the conclusion that this OP is just another fiction based on a Youtube video by some blogger named Alexander Higgins, famous for... I dunno what.
egalitegirl
(362 posts)I was watching another video on youtube and at the end of it, youtube automatically started playing this one. That is how I came to know about it. I immediately thought it would be something people here would be interested. I don't think it is a hoax simply because we do not know the person who posted it. Do you really think the video is not genuine?
George II
(67,782 posts)procon
(15,805 posts)but more about credibility. You say you know nothing about this blogger. It happens that his anti-Hillary meme nicely fits in with your own confirmation bias, but why is this unknown blogger's added editorial commentary, "Crooked Hillary Election Fraud", a valid conclusion? It isn't at all apparent what was happening from that clip with the really bad audio pickup.
There's also your own subjective opinions about women in general and a total fabrication about a nonexist coup and Banana Republics, all because Bernie fans disagreed with something... like maybe because they lost the vote count, who knows. There is no coups in the works, just winners and losers, but you based your comments on nothing more than a visceral reaction to this short video snippet.
egalitegirl
(362 posts)I pasted the link and nothing more from the link into the original post. I did not even intend it to be displayed as a video because I thought it required special code. I thought it would show up as a link. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised that it showed up as a video because I used to wonder how to do that sort of thing!
I have no idea how the editorial commentary you mention shows up stamped on the video. The original does not have it stamped on the video! So it must be how DU processes youtube links. I do notice that the commentary is below the video on the original page but I did not notice that part when I posted it.

Sexist much?
If the women who support Hillary "take orders from men", why aren't they all taking their orders from Bernie? Last I heard, he is of the male persuasion.
That "woman who cant think for herself" is on her way to the presidency of the United States, the most powerful position on the planet. She seems to think for herself rather well.

NanceGreggs
(27,821 posts)... "illogical" going on around here - and it's been going on for months.

Funny that, huh?
Dem2
(8,168 posts)But I don't expect those who claim to have the moral and ethical high ground staked out (obviously this is hilarious in it's own right, but so be it) to promote this sort of low-brow misogyny. I'm sure many are commenting indirectly by not commenting, but the bigger person isn't afraid to take on their own side when they've veered too far to one side. Nobody wins in a gutter fight.
NanceGreggs
(27,821 posts)... where what people claim to be and who they really are can be very different things.

One Black Sheep
(458 posts)The Democratic convention in Nevada turned violent on Saturday, with at least one fight breaking out, according to video posted Twitter users who were in attendance.
Tensions were high between supporters of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), the Las Vegas Sun reports. They apparently spilled over on the state convention floor.
People can be seen scuffling, and a woman says into a microphone, We need a medic in the front, a medic in the front.

While I don't condone the rhetoric from the op I understand the anger behind it. What is happening in Nevada is blatant in our face cheating. The difference between you and I is that I would be angry at this even if it favored my candidate. What is happening in Nevada is just wrong.

Sorry, but the "anger" behind it is pure hate and pure RW idiocy, you guys don't seem to understand the anger behind those of us who are listening to this misogyny from people pretending to progressives. What happened in Nevada is that Bernie supporters were prevented form blatant in your face cheating to steal a contest that Bernie lost. They lost seats by not following basic rules. the difference between you and I is that I don't condone RW hate, misogyny or cheating by people too dumb to follow simple rules.
I'm quite angry about what's happening in Nevada, I was angry when BSers pulled this crap in IA, and in that other NV convention. I'm just not excusing any of it when it's one candidate that's being slimed and cheated against by the people who are doing all the cheating and the sliming and ALSO accusing others falsely of their own actions.
This what CONS do. Look at the actual facts here and watch the videos with out the RW edit, and then see if you can manage to dredge up some anger since what your candidate's followers are doing should enrage and upset anyone who thinks democracy is something that's to be valued and for whom misogyny and RW hate is unacceptable no matter how much "anger" one feels about being thwarted from violating simple rules.

(885 posts)Bernie and his supporters never cheated in Nevada. There isn't one shred of evidence they ever did. Hillary delegates didn't show up is what happened. All rules were followed by Bernie supporters. You are lieing to cover for the blatant caught on video cheating that is happening today by the state party to hand the win to Hillary.
I dare you to provide one shred of evidence that Bernie or his supporters cheated in any way in Nevada. Back up those lies with proof. You can't and we all know it.

(1,901 posts)There is more evidence of BS dirty tricks than HRCs. Yeah, when you tell the HRC delegates something false about when they're supposed to show up, but it's BERNIE's lies, that's not cheating on BS's part because his purity burns through any of the lies?
You're the one that's being dishonest here, with your numerous non-factual statements.
You just admitted what happened, but we know you can't figure out why you just exposed what happened, but we know you can't admit it, truth is hard for RWers and BSers apparently, but vile smears are so very easy, so that's what you engage in.
RichVRichV
(885 posts)It shows you're lying. The rules for running the caucuses are printed for the world to see. There was no cheating by Bernie, his campaign, or his supporters. The same can't be said of the state party or Hillary campaign.
synergie
(1,901 posts)and as usual are belligerent, demanding and dishonest. If you had the guts or the brains you would understand simple facts, but apparently reading rules and complying with them us just not something that you have the guts to do. There was cheating by BS last time, his campaign and his supporters deal with everything that does not go their way by getting aggressive, violent and dishonest as your post shows. The party is not cheating you, nor is HRC, you are just LOSING. People are not buying BS. Yelling at us, screaming at us, threatening us and pulling dirty tricks to steal delegates you did not win simply is not working. Gave the guts to face reality, it shows you are lying, and too terrified to accept why or how.
You have a nice day now, and do try to get a grip all this anger and dishonest ranting is not good for your health, and you have so much more disappointment ahead of you and more losses you need create total fiction to explain, since we know you are too frightened to deal with things like math and reality.

(885 posts)You're a typical Hillary supporter who ignores evidence as it's presented to you because it goes against your bias. I proved the email sent to the delegates was in fact truthful. I even quoted the paragraphs that proved it and linked to the official delegate selection plan written by the Nevada state party and approved by the DNC. I linked proof that the delegate email wasn't why the Hillary campaign got Christine Kramar sacked. It was because she passed an email from the Hillary campaign that they considered confidential (ignoring that she had a responsibility to provide all material to all campaigns in order to do her duties in an unbiased manner), had nothing whatsoever to do with the delegate email you like to go on about. That delegate email is one big fat red herring. I even showed that the two Hillary supporters on the credentials committee backed Christine Kramar when she was ousted.
You haven't proven any part of your argument. All you've got is accusations and innuendo that you "know is true" because you "just know it's true". You can't provide one shred of evidence to show it's actually true.
BootinUp
(47,221 posts)you think about editing out the slur against women at a minimum. Its this kind of stuff that not only affects how you are viewed here but also other BS supporters and the campaign itself.
As far as how many yeas and nays there were, clearly there were both, and watching that video is not a good way to determine which side prevailed.

None at all. I have no idea what could possibly give them that impression.

(587 posts)I'm sorry, whining about "corporations and the military industrial complex" just totally eliminates any credibility your complaint may have.
Regardless of whether either of those things are bad - they have NOTHING to do with this situation. Conflating the two simply tells me you are unable to make a cogent point and are just flinging shit at the wall, hoping something will stick. Or you have so little respect for fellow DUers that you think the mere mention of evil buzzwords is enough to set off the ignorant masses, and you don't need to explain yourself to them.

(68,825 posts)You stole the delegates in April by sending letters to Clinton supporters with the wrong time..the woman who did it was fired Thus democracy was thwarted by you in April...when you overturned a primary by sleazy tricks and gave yourself and unearned victory. Shame on you for stealing what was mostly minority votes.

(36,063 posts)It's plagued humanity for as long as there has been history.
No group controlling power cedes it willingly. And the fight for control has been revealed this election cycle more than others.
Thanks to the internet, there is awareness of the voter registration problems from across the country. In context, if not intent, it is not clearly distinguishable from what deliberate acts against opponents would look like. And participants of the Democratic primaries and caucuses from across the country are very aware of that.
This event, along with the previous events, is another wedge that will contribute to impediments of unification.

So type up whatever ridiculous, misogynist screed you want. Ain't gonna change a thing. Ain't gonna change my vote nor those of the MILLIONS of Americans who support Hillary over anyone else.
And you and all the folks who rec'd this thread know it.

(6,007 posts)I still don't understand why any Hillary supporter can actually address an ISSUE.
The author was deeply offended by this PERVERSION of Democracy, and maybe said something that might offend. But get a grip.
Hillary's campaign is lying, cheating and stealing right out in the open, caught on camera, and YOUR biggest concern is to attack the messenger for a comment you may not agree with? Really? Do any of you give a crap about the country at all? Or is it just about getting your own way? Doesn't matter how low you have to go, just as long as you get what you want? Because it is very hard to tell from what you post.
TwilightZone
(25,517 posts)No, the author was deeply offensive. People who call themselves liberals and progressives and then wholeheartedly support this rant are neither.
Besides, as has been documented elsewhere in this thread and others, the blame lies firmly on Sanders supporters who didn't know the rules, changed party affiliation before yesterday, and/or didn't bother to show up.

(39,961 posts)I am going to be the first one to say "I told you so" (because I have, repeatedly and I am by no means alone on DU to have stated this in no uncertain terms).
When election fraud costs the Democratic party MULTIPLE elections in state races and in the presidential race I don't want to hear from one single person that smugly denied that there have been repeated instances of electoral fraud during the primary.
I don't want to hear one single person yell "Nader". If you have turned a blind eye to the multitude of "voting irregularities" and somehow think that all will be hunky dory in November, get ready, because this is what you will hear:

Your sexist comments about women being unable to think for themselves is ironic considering you glob on to the first conspiracy theory that comes along and don't bother to learn about the proceedings. It also confirms to me the extend to which opposition to Clinton is about undermining my equal rights as a woman in this country.
