She shouldn't, but random unaffiliated, but still totally affiliated people could.
I think he was more making a case to vote Democratic period more than just for Clinton.

It's nice to see that Bernie has been campaigning for Teachout ( the best name for anyone running this year)
But it's incredibly disappointing that he is still seemingly holding the "I'm not campaigning for anyone who didn't endorse me" grudge

Oh? How so?
Our two major parties are partially (but for the most part) independent organizations. They set their own rules for nominations.
Exactly what part isn't legal?

They're intertwined with the election law now. That's why you can spend like $250 and get on the NH Presidential Primary ballot.
If the two corporations wish to disentangle their internal politics from state election law, I'm all for that. Good luck explaining getting rid of primaries to voters though.

While the parties are private, and they have the ability to manipulate rules, I don't think they will have the ability to just start outright banning anyone they don't want from running in the first place
Even if it holds up legally people will not accept it. Anyone should be able to run as a republican or democrat if they really want to.

Reported 'explosion' in NY at 8:30. At 9:10 Trump tells CO a "bomb" went off. Source says trump was 'briefed' on plane. Who briefed him? (1)

Did an investigator on scene call Trump before they told anyone else? (3)

Just saw this clip of Rudy Giuliani on 9/11. He has completely lost touch with reality, but this fear mongering is not only dangerous, it's deplorable.

I recently read in another thread that Trump denied the threat of technological unemployment. After some brief Googling, I couldn't come up with anything to prove this.
Would someone here be kind enough to point me in the right direction? Thanks.

It's such a shame bernie was allowed to fight hillary as hard as he did; only o'malley, webb and chafee should have been allowed to and we should have the rules rewritten to favor the outcome desired by the corporate democrat machine as much as possible

Interesting how Fox News doesn't reply to any of the tweets that sent these facts out:
This is pathetic and sad. Trump does not show any compassion and sympathy for the people that were affected by this incident.

Another fact from those tweets:
Webb was a Republican and worked for the Reagan Administration and Chafee was also a Republican for all of his relevant political life, so both of them should be out. In a fair election.It's such a shame bernie was allowed to fight hillary as hard as he did; only o'malley, webb and chafee should have been allowed to and we should have the rules rewritten to favor the outcome desired by the corporate democrat machine as much as possible

Yo, where can I find video on this part of Obama's speech?
"Trump missed that whole civics lesson about slavery and Jim Crow - but we've got a museum for him to visit. So he can tune in."

But that's not what I'm suggesting.
As you said, the parties currently have control over nomination rules. I'm not suggesting they outright ban anyone. Just make the rules for running for the nomination more stringent.
They're already doing that.

Knowing the the party requires certain qualifications can boost the value of the party.
But it's risky.

But what rules could they realistically come up that wouldn't be seen as them stacking the deck too much? We already had to roll back super delegates, which have been dragged through the mud for that reason

Look how well received the superdelegates are.
The party outright ignoring the primary results would cause even more of a PR nightmare.

I don't think there's much of a threat (with regards to technology lowering the natural rate of unemployment and labor participation. Obviously, some industries have and will replace(d) workers with machines but I'm talking about the overall economy) until we start inventing productive stuff again honestly.
I've seen nothing to suggest that Trump has said this, however.

The party wouldn't outright ignore primary results. Look at this sample result, here: 100% of the votes went to Candidate A, and there was no Candidate B. The results were adhered to faithfully.

Agreed. These populist terrorist rebels are threatening Ingsoc as we know it. We have to limit the party eligibility for the good of the country. It is of existential importance.

Some are saying that Hillary planted it. I don't know anything about that. But it is what some are saying and probably should be looked into.
It also might have been a terrorist Obama purposely let into the country. At least that's what I've heard in this thread. I don't know.

Retromelon is a national treasure. I think.
There was an explosion inside a dumpster in New York City. A few with minor injuries, but there hasn't been any confirmation of a bomb or terrorist attack, although another explosion occurred earlier in New Jersey right before a charity race, and they did find a pipe bomb-type device, but no relation between the two events have been found.
Nothing else has been reported.
