Bernie is behind by about 300 delegates with about 900 to play for. California is 475 of them.

If Bernie and Hillary split California evenly, he'll be 300 down with 400 to play for, and he'll need to win the remaining primaries by about 87/13 to win the nomination.

So yes, totally plausible, he will be the next president.
Thanks.

The only state he has won with that margin is Vermont and Washington state. Everywhere else\ was less than this or he got massacred.

My point was more that California is worth more than half of the remaining delegates
 
Sanders is going to be 2016 Nader isn't he...

If he doesn't fuck over the Dem nominee at the GE.

Now imagine if Clinton and Trump are the party nominees, then the GOP runs their own third party candidate to try and stop Trump. And then Bernie goes in as an independent.

I'm surprised Bernie won by such a margin. Six points isn't much considering how well he did in Washington and Alaska. Was this predicted a few weeks back?
 
The meltdowns in this thread are quite something. Some posters here might benefit from taking politics less personally.

I'm glad that I could easily support both candidates. I feel sorry for the "Bernie or bust" people who apparently don't know how elections work.

EDIT: Thank you for pronouncing Oregon correctly, Wolf. Take note, Least coast.

Politics is not sports, a lot depends on this and there's a guy basically running for his own ideological vanity making sure Donald Trump is as well positioned to win in November as possible.

But isn't there a lot at stake this election compared to prior elections with the potential to nominate 2-4 supreme court justices? And you have a lot of supporters from Bernie who are all about Bernie or Bust.

I think it's pretty personal especially for the LGBT, and minorities etc., that have the most to lose when they see people with that attitude and a potential presidential candidate stir up the base to have these negative feelings towards the system.
 
If he makes Hillary non-viable and takes all 425 delegates. Yes.

Problem is that won't EVER happen. California loves the Clintons. Not even Obama could take that state from her in 08 and most polls show her ahead of Bernie by double digits.

Bernie would be lucky to keep it close in California.

It would take a miracle for him to winwin.

And he ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT make her non-viable.

It's over.

That he still pushes this narrative that he can catch up to Hillary is just the latest instance of him blatantly lying to his supporters. It's gross.

Yeah, I made this just now. It's super favorable to Sanders in all of the contests. It's to see what he needs in CA to win. Take that slider and keep bumping it for him until he wins. http://DemRace.com/?share=tnXjdNQW

The answer is 80-20.
 
Oregon's not going to be a big win for Sanders, even if he does take it overall. Clinton does pretty well here.

He's going to outright lose California and this shit can be over with. Honestly tired of his ass at this point.

Agreed. His campaign has been done since March 15th

Why do people want this to keep going on? This is a cry for help and has gone far past Bernard drinking his own Kool-Aid. But I guess this is a game for most of his supporters.

As long as he is in there, I will keep supporting him.
 
This makes no sense. Of all things politics is something you should take very seriously. It affects people in very real ways.
There is a difference between taking something seriously and taking it personally. I recognize that's not the dominant attitude on GAF though, so I won't bother arguing the point.
 
Uh, there's actually Bernie supporters saying that Superdelegates need to drop Hillary and support Sanders? That's pretty bizarre logic considering Clinton's lead.
 
I can translate that for you:
"I'm okay with another 30 years of conservative SCOTUS rule. I'm okay killing-off Bernie's vision if I don't get my way RIGHT NOW. WAAH."

Bernie is doing a good enough job killing his vision on his own.

Time to stop apologizing for this guy.
 
why is he still attacking her?

Because he still totally has a chance though..

Anyway, I just think it's sad that there's probably people at that rally who truly and genuinely believe Bernie when he says that he still has a narrow but possible path to victory and brings out that dumb California meme.

If he loses in California and they finally realize how far ahead Hillary is, it's probably gonna be shocking to these people because of Bernie continually pushing this narrative. Which I'm sure is probably gonna lead to more rigged election nonsense.
