The man is a bitter man. Selfish people get bitter when things don't go their way.

a change is needed.

after 4 years of a clusterfuck by Trump.

just bluster and scribbling a bill that would never get to committee, but really try for reform.

gained are to be used as progressive leverage in the party platform.

THAT'S IT.

Do not see what isn't there.

Just admit that VOTERS were his downfall, not some imaginary evil cabal of delegates.

explain how there is no path forward, no delegate leverage except to help write the platform, and then turn them over to Biden in the first vote round of the DNC.

Don't make up what you KNOW he meant.

We've been through a Bernie loss before.

Stop fussing. This will be his last rodeo.

VOTERS rejected Bernie. His implications about delegates match all the other sinister implications about "rigged" elections, so it's obvious what he means. It's obvious he can't bring himself to admit that voters rejected him. There is no need to inject inflammatory aspersions about "delegates" as if they are rigged against him. VOTERS chose. The sooner he admits that, the better for his supporters.

Stop demanding more.

Your demands that he say what you want are divisive at a time we now need to unify by convention time.

He can't admit that voters rejected him. The delegates were only assigned on the basis of what VOTERS chose. To ignore that and blame it on "delegates" is what is divisive. See The Magistrate's post No. 13.

I was repeating Sanders words -- those were the words that were divisive.

it's amazing to me how some don't get what he's doing. It's so obvious after all these years.

But, hey.. it didn't work again and for that we can we grateful.

Look what he's doing here..

The man really should get basic facts like that through his head, if he means to be a positive influence and assist in the overthrow of the cheap thug Trump.





"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."

Bernie was.

The argument is specious and now "played out," as the young say.

When people cast votes in a primary, they are selecting delegates to the Party's convention. In some states they may be listed as a separate ballot line, with their allegiance noted. In any case, voters send delegates to the convention bound to vote for a specific candidate on the first ballot. Mr. Biden has a much larger number of delegates than Sanders because because a great many voters wanted him to be President, rather than Sanders. A vote for any candidate is necessarily a vote against any other candidates or candidate.

This is not rocket surgery.

Don't get things twisted.

Everything you've said here is exactly what Bernie spoke to.

Voting in primaries, yes, is voting against as much as for. You make a distinction without any meaning now that we must move forward in unity.

Sir.

Bernie didn't mention that voters rejected him. He brought up "delegates behind Biden" because his smears against delegates is part of his anti-establishment platform. Voters rejected Bernie soundly. Time for him to tell his supporters that voters decided and quit using his anti-establishment crutches. It's not honest and definitely not needed at this time.

It is an inescapable conclusion that a portion of Sanders; supporters know little about politics and public affairs.

Here, for example, is one from Alabama:

It was about the voters.

is one of his buzz words. he knows, his supporters know. and we know it.

Thank you, for shining the Light on it!

There were delegates for Biden, Pete, Warren, Sanders and some others.

I voted for four Biden delegates and for Biden. That is how we do it in my state. The delegates have to circulate petitions just like any other candidate.

Worse because we're the problem, never the solution.

And I feel sure he has little if any for his own supporters who buy whatever he tells them instead of sharing his own true views and goals. He's famous for disrespecting anyone who disagrees even slightly, and what would he except them for?
