Well let's see. Hillary thought it was smart to keep a private email server that she used for gov correspondence in her house. And then talks it off as saying other people also had a private email "account". Totally ignoring that no one has ever kept a private email SERVER. She disgusts me. She's an idiot. She has a staged phoniness about her. I think there could still be indictments over this. I'll take her over any republican however Kasich seems somewhat decent and competent of them and I'd have to look at that again.
Trump... he is a walking disaster that gets worse every minute. I mean to the minute like right now. It's mindblowing to think about how people could support that.
Bernie Sanders.. he seems to be a very good, very dedicated idealistic person who really cares about people. I'm concerned about how everyone gets free college and how all of this is paid for - but you know - it's all a disaster anyway right? So much corruption and drive to increase psychopathic corporation profits at all costs. Maybe let's shift the craziness towards people and caring for people. My vote in the primary is for Bernie.
This has been one of the most unreal primaries to watch on both sides. I didn't vote in this poll because I'm not in NY, but I think it will be really interesting to watch the Democratic vote in NY.
One because of the the inception of Occupy Wall St. having begun there and it's the financial capitol. It's also the media capitol with the number one market in the US. Basically Bernie representing one side of it while Hilary is representative of the other side having taken money from the financial sector and the media moguls superpacs. The media backing her superpacs have been bias and the Morning Joe finally pointed that out today. Does Sanders still get no respect?
Sarah Silverman also lays it all out in her recent video on it.
Two because NY is considered Hilary's "home state" having been a Senator there. It would be unusual for a politician not to win their "home state." Their campaign is so confident about winning the State that they're already making predictions, Clinton Campaign Expects to Have Nomination Locked Up Next Month.
Three because first time voters in NY registered in record breaking numbers with 41,000 new voters for this upcoming vote.
Four because Hilary has refused to debate Bernard before the NY primary because of his tone which set the twitter sphere on fire today. Are Bernie and Hilary not campaigning opponents at this point? He's been nothing but respectful to her in every debate from my point of view. Plus Trump isn't going to go any easier on her and NY deserves to see them debate before their primary.
Then there was the voter suppression in Arizona where people waited in line for five hours to vote because of the lack of polling stations so a federal investigation has been launched. There were other reports of things happening in Ohio and elsewhere with the Unions.
I wouldn't be surprised if there was something that happened in NY too along the lines of voter suppression and other trickery happening that was coming out of the Clinton campaign. This is not her first rodeo after all.
Sanders campaign has momentum with his recent landslide victories but we all recognize that what happens in NY at this point is very pivotal in the campaign. Realistically it will likely go to Hilary and then it will come down to California after that.
I wouldn't be surprised if there was suppression - as in Arizona. "Other things" as in Ohio, (where I live) or intimidation at the polls - when Bill Clinton strutted around with a coffee cup and a bull horn posing for selfies.
I am a New Yorker who lives in Ohio. I have faith that the Democrats in my home state will vote for Bernie Sanders.
This is weird for me, but for the first time in my life, I'm undecided.
I love Bernie's unyielding concern about economic inequality, but I feel he's less well-versed in other areas, and I have the distinct feeling that he's delusional in his conviction that he can trigger a popular "revolution." A lot of people are happy to go to rallies to hear him, but I don't think they'll be willing to go further.
Frankly, I'd love to see a woman president, and I think Hillary is an extraordinarily fine resume. And despite the snarky comment making comparisons with Mamie Eisenhower and Jackie Kennedy, it's clear that she ended up far more knowledgeable and shrewder after her stint as First Lady than they did. On the other hand, I think she would be more of the same in terms of most of the basics like economics, wars, privacy, etc.
Oh, and by the way, I think it's deplorable when anyone votes based primarily by focusing on one's wallet, i.e. whether taxes will go up. Our taxes remain low in comparison with most comparable countries, and selfishness isn't supposed to be our main motivator.

Yeah, people should vote based on sex or race instead.
Hey at least you admit why you are a democrat. You're ok with the government viewing our money as potential funds for whatever pet projects the Dems can imagine up.
If you loved Barack Obama, you will adore Hillary Clinton. She is the same person, only older, fatter, whiter and transgendered.
We will have the same pumping up of Wall Street with borrowed money, the same exporting of jobs, a huge expansion of the same Bush-Obama Middle East crusade, the same meaningless aphorisms passing as public policy. ("Love and kindness" instead of "hope and change.")
