In reply to the discussion: Bernie hate needs to stop and soon [View all]InAbLuEsTaTe
(24,122 posts)128. It's a lock...been tellin peeps this forever & a day. Sorry to break the news, but It's over.
The working class and low-income voters have decided whom their Champion will be... and its Bernie!! The fact is Bernie's inevitable... the polls are clear on this, as are the overflowing crowds attending Bernie's rallies.
It's obviously futile to deny this simple fact and to keep expressing anger over it, as that only serves to divide us and, in the process, help tRumpy The Clown... better to just accept that it's inevitable that Bernie will be our Democratic nominee and unite around electing Bernie to be our next President!!
Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

Right. Remember the way the leader rotated in the crowded Republican primary of 2016.

Not wanting to get wiped out in the 2020 general election is not "HATE". Stop it.

Realizing that two steps into a 20-mile marathon doesn't indicate anything isn't 'hate.'

Maybe because they've been told that "Sanders has the lock on the nomination? "

It won't be a lock then even. It looks very likely that no candidate will come to the convention

Two states voted and a weak performance at that. Those states should have provided a landslide.
