PLEASE 
is what its come to. 
of course.
Every endorser of Bernie is a sacred visionary that has seen the light of His Goodness!
Every endorser of Hillary is a craven, lying, vote-rigging shill who shall be denounced to the Nine Heavens and the Seven Seas!
BTW, what a load of f-ing nonsense.
on this post.
She is able to bend all people to her will and they don't have an ounce of personal power to make their own decisions. 
Anything but face the reality that more Democrats want Hillary to be the nominee than they want Sanders.
Losing sucks, but at some point in time, rational people accept reality.

Only in Sanders' world does he win the nomination. Even if he won CA he would still lose the nomination.
Instead of the perpetual conspiracy theories, how about dealing with reality? More Democrats have voted for Hillary than have voted for Sanders, that's the reason why she will be the party's nominee.
This place has become the LW version of the Freepers, just as nutty.......
I mentioned how friends who are dyed in the wool Bernie supporters have been accused by other dyed in the wool Bernie supporters of being sell-outs, oligarch lovers, naive and just being "turned on" in general because they DARED disagree with how they're increasingly not liking the way (Sanders) is running his campaign the past month. Several of my friends who are Bernie supporters are now not doing phone banking, donating, going door to door etc. now, and no longer show up at the headquarters due to the animosity there building up, so instead they've scaled back all their Sanders activity and throwing their support to Hillary Clinton. Some just quit and are not voting at ALL which I hate, but hey. A person has the right to not vote if they don't want to. We're all adults (I'd hope) with our own minds. The almost arguments and animosity they tell me they feel is so sad to hear about. I'm just listening on the phone to all of my Bernie supporter friends who are going through IT with fellow Bernie supporters.
I can remember being on the "other" side in 2008 as a Hillary supporter, and how although I was sad/disappointed that increasingly it appeared that she was NOT going to win the Dem nomination then (And she was actually not as far behind Sen. Obama as Bernie's behind Hillary at this point), but I realized that Senator Obama was going to win and that he'd bested Hillary & Co. and ran a FINE campaign. I mean, from then Senator Obama's canvassers to his phone banking/calling cell phone strategy netting younger voters who'd not normally be reached by land line was 1st class, and his masterstroke of caucusing--well--all of those things added up and it was the old ball game for Hillary (the enthusiasm didn't hurt either . It had to be to beat the Clinton's machinery at the time. I made a decision that shortly after Hillary officially dropped out of the race, that I needed to throw my support fully behind Sen. Obama. although still hurting but I did. Now, were there bitter moments between the Obama & Clinton camps? Absolutely, but I don't remember anything as nasty and contentious as what's going on between the Clinton and Sanders camps--at least here--on DU. I remember back then, friends who were Obama supporters never chided me or 'threw up' anything in my face about Sen. Obama beating Hillary Clinton. But then again, I wouldn't associate with folks who were like that, and yes we had disagreements and the language got salty at times, but we're still friends here 8 years later.
Me and friends are very passionate in our beliefs, and me and my buddies had every right to question each others candidate as we were ALL super stoked about either Sen. Obama (1st black POTUS, and about Hillary 1st woman who could be POTUS), and like I said at times we got close to arguing with each other, but we dialed it back and realized that we had 2 great candidates running for POTUS and to see the bigger picture. Me and my friends kept most of our differences straight/ironed out. But never once did any of us get nasty with one another. But this year is an extremely volatile one in politics as we can SEE, especially with Trump on the other side who could really do major damage as I see it to the gains we've made as Dems the past 30 or more years, and to hear directly from several of my Bernie supporter friends telling me that other Bernie supporters are turning on THEM to the point of not speaking to them because they said they'll throw their support behind Hillary Clinton in the GE is well, sad but it is what it is, and yes I'm stoked about Hillary this year but not rubbing it in my friends who are Sanders supporters faces. Never that. Never
Nice smear of a great democratic progressive, I guess. 
Trump would approve I'm sure.
He should be supporting Bernie, but he's not, so it must be because he was bought, so he must be going to fix California's voting machines and steal the election!
It couldn't possibly be that he actually supports Hillary, or even just that he believes Hillary is certain to be the nominee and that Trump will be a disaster. No, it must be that he's a crook.

In states where he has lost, the results have been contested more often than not. If it weren't so pathetic it would be funny.
It's almost cult like, how can people fail to see the greatness of their chosen candidate? Their only answer seems to be that something crooked had to have happened for him to lose. In the South, where he got a drubbing, the "Confederate" states were duly dismissed. In MA it was blamed on Bill shaking hands. In NV a semi-riot started at the state convention, although Hillary had won the state by several points. KY was made to recount votes.
I don't recall Hillary's campaign contesting any state where she lost.
Then there's the undemocratic strategy proposed by his two weasels (Weaver and Devine), fully endorsed by Sanders himself, that super delegates should discount Hillary's large pledged delegate advantage in favor of Sanders because of match-up results that mean nothing this early on.
He's now actually lying to his supporters. He said at the rally he held today that if he wins CA, when he goes to the convention, he would leave with the Democratic nomination. Only in Sanders' parallel world will that event take place.
