Bernie I admit was needed. But, I don't think the US as a whole is ready for it. Maybe 2020 or 2024. Again, hopefully Hillary adopts some of his points. But he's done. There is no path. And to continue to ask for money at this point is borderline wrong.
 
I think when you're candidate sweeps, it's definitely justifiable to want to celebrate that win. I don't blame people one bit lol. It's unbelievable in my mind that this happened. Didn't see it coming.
 
I don't really care how this turns out. I live in a red state and I'm tired of voting for the lesser of two evils. If Bernie wasn't running, I wouldn't have voted for a socialist anyway. I'm still writing his name in in November.

make it happen
 
when you're already hundreds of delegates ahead, an essential tie is a win. when you're already hundreds behind. a tie is a loss.

these are facts.

Bernie continues to lose states he needs to win. Clinton continues to win states she needs to win, and continues to win big.

You'll be okay.

bernie iz about to rekt america, hillary's last news cycle is tonight her fiber optics are slow like peanut butter waterfalls

california has come to
 
Way more complicated than that, dudes. You can be far left and be into Clinton.

Yea, unless you are totally for Bernie you are a fucking conservative shill. Lol

Or I think Bernie is a crap candidate with a decent message

Cause if you support Hillary, you're not a "true" liberal. Got it.

Way to miss my point.

A super liberal guy runs for president and I see so called progressives on here cheering that he loses badly and for him to go away.

It's disappointing.
 
I mean, at this point, if she sweeps, Sanders has no viable reason to continue attacking her. The delegates are the same, yes, but if he can't win any states, it just looks like he's trying to sink the ship.

2024? Bernie will be in his 80s. I can't see an 82 year old man running for president.

There are reasons to dislike Bernie in spite of his progressive policies.

Hillary is close enough, and a better candidate. It's not like she's a conservative.

You don't tear down the house dems were barely able to build due to Republican obstructionism. you get permits and build upon what's standing

because I don't want the possibility of this getting super ugly down the stretch for no reason.

The sooner Hillary can completely focus on Trump and start hammering him the better

Also if you as a candidate say, "Are you ready for a political revolution?" after you just lost five out of five states, you deserve to be torn apart and shit on.

Its all relative, I suppose. As an outsider, I can say that our former Conservative government under Stephen Harper (or even David Cameron from the UK) was/is probably more liberal than Clinton. Even if you hate Harper (I do as well), hey, at least we still had free health care and affordable college.

Because he lost. Fact.

Now by staying in he is taking money, resources and time away from the real battle. It's selfish IMO, he shoukd bow out, support the nominee and do all you can to get her to victory.

Maybe because a lot of people think he couldn't win the GE. Doesn't mean we disagree with his actual message.

Baby steps are needed in the United States. Hillary will get alot of progressive change through hopefully and make the US more acceptable of harder left leaning things that Bernie wants. You can't force them on people all at once like Bernie is trying to do right now. It wasn't a message that could win in November.

No, Harpers government wasn't left of Hillary, this is a ludicrous notion.

I for one am writing in David Bowie's name come November.

He's not exactly super liberal. There's legit reasons for progressives not to like him.

And this is why things never happen. The so-called-revolution was originally supposed to happen in the goddamn sixties, and look were we are.

At this point, he's setup. Bernie gets people fired up, pulls Hillary leftward, and gets people to vote in their state and locals. Then a young Bernie stan fired up by this election takes it in 2020 or 2024. Then maybe you get a progressive President with an actual progressive Congress and state legislation to help him or her.

Bernie isn't getting another shot.

"Super liberal" is not just a box you check. There are areas, specifically guns, on which Bernie is far to the right of Hillary. It's also possible that someone, like myself, who is a liberal (and quite proud of it!) who simply has a different idea of how we should solve certain problems. Just because Bernie's the most liberal person in the room doesn't make him right on every issue.
 
I have a feeling that Trump is going to play her like a fiddle.

Trump is good at thinking on his feet, whereas Hillary puts her foot in her mouth every time she tries to say something which isn't rehearsed beforehand. Her Reagan gaffe was particularly appalling.

If Hillary can engage Trump on her terms during the debates and try to beat him with policy discussion, she wins. If Trump can draw her into a more impromptu conversation which plays more into personality and quick-thinking replies, all bets are off.

People cheer on their candidate because politics is to some extent a sport. You want your team to win even though you respect the other team and wouldn't mind them winning wither all things considered. In my case if the Yankees were to go against the Cubs. But sometimes you get into it and get into heated discussions and arguments.

Just because you don't support Sanders as a candidate in the primary doesn't make you any more or less liberal than if you support Hillary. Same with Obama and Hillary in 08. You just agree with one persons policies or personality or whatever more.

What really matters is you go out and support Liberal candidates whenevr you can. In November, the midtems, at a local level, anywhere and everywhere.

Because people realize that while a lot of his points were great, it does not necessarily play well to the current United States. The US is extremely slow on change and any sudden movements are generally met with massive resistance. Because of that, people feel Hillary has a much better shot at the general election. And I know as a minority, I want to take zero risks of a GOP candidate winning an election.

Bernie is a positive. He has done well to force Hillary to address some very important issues. He should be commended for that. But he just isn't the right person I am fully confident in a general election situation.

I'm not sure about that but Hillary I guess is a fine enough choice all the same. Whatever you may say about her at least she'll try to run the country to the best of her abilities and that's what matters.
