Any other point you're trying to make is moot because the subject of your thread is false and misleading.
Either my eyes are crossed or the subject changed. Yikes! Anyway, ignore my first post on this thread, since I could have sworn the subject read "Sanders leads Clinton" I guess I've been reading so many anti-Clinton threads that something happened to my brain. I guess we're on the same page after all.

Sorry.

But being Sanders supporters and all, they'd rather file lawsuits and protest than actually register and vote. Because revolution.
And then whining and screaming even more when their failed lawsuits instantly got quashed due to lack of merits like the ones in Arizona and New York.

Exactly. I am always concerned when there is a possibility of voter suppression but, in both of those states, the counties affected were areas where exit polls showed Hillary leading by a wide margin. Simple math and common sense made it clear that Hillary would have received at least half or more of any votes that weren't counted.

Have you ever changed your mind about Sanders on anything? Like you have railed against Sanders as an ineffective ideologue who cares about his ego more than the needs of the people and he cant get anything done because he doesnt compromise and believe in quick fixes. But how much do you really know about his record and history?

I am accepting of Bernie not winning the nomination. I just haven't figured if anyone really worth to vote for or just stay home.

I thought we were discussing the 2016 primary. He apparently was a successful mayor and is well respected in Vermont or he wouldn't have lasted in Congress for so long. However, his record has nothing to do with the fact that he is losing because Hillary got more votes. As I have written many times, I really liked Bernie and his ideas when he first announced his candidacy and would have voted for him had he been the nominee. However, rather than write another long comment, I'll let this article say how I feel at this point.

"The arc of Sanders’ campaign has gone from extremely inspiring to incredibly annoying, and the latest temper tantrum in Nevada is inexcusable. Whining about “unfair” rules that have been on the books since 2008.

BTW, the claim that political pundits and reporters who disagree with anything Sanders does or says are controlled by the establishment is really getting old.

Sanders' record is used against him, he is ridiculued as an ineffective leader, senator, congressman, and huge numbers of Hillary supporters claim he is an ideologue who doesnt compromise and dont care about the people, only his socialist ideology. Even you have portrayed him as such. Its a blatant lie, thats why it is important to correct it. But when the lie is told enough times, people believe it.

Follow the money trail is all I have to say regarding "pundits". 6 media corporations own more than 90% of all media in the US. These pundits do what they are told in order to keep their job and gain access to the White House. And then they lie and claim they are non-partisan. The biggest shareholder of NY Times is Carlos Slim, the third richest man in the world and a corrupt sleazeball. The owner of Washington Post is Jeff Bezos, the fourth richest man in the world. These are the two so-called most respected media outlets in the US, but are nothing more than propaganda outlets for the rich and the powerful while the ordinary working people of America will continue to suffer as they get bombarded with the viewpoints of the billionaire class, crowding out the will of the people. And Hillary is steeped in that money and is promising us more status quo. That is why she is doing horribly among independents.

I agree and feel the same way when Hillary Clinton is vilified by the press.

I'm not quite sure what you're suggesting. Should we stop reading newspapers and listening to TV news and only read what's on specific Internet sites and blogs? Is that the only way to get to the unbiased truth?
