Yeah, it's pretty obvious that the party itself was slanted towards Clinton, I think everyone had figured that out. It's not surprising-she was a democrat who had over the years developed relationships inside the party. Bernie Sanders wasn't. Should they have been completely unbiased? Yes, of course they should have. But I don't see anything in the emails that showed that there was any cheating on vote tallies or anything like that and as far a Wasserman Schultz some of her emails that are causing outrage should be taken in context. Anyway, what I'm seeing is that just about anything is going to cause outrage-people are disappointed-and they need to get over it. They need to follow up and get with the program. Sanders and his team have laid a good solid foundation to make meaningful changes in the democratic party, but its now up to all of us to follow up and apply pressure to see that these changes are implemented. As individuals we have to make sure that every two years we put a good progressive congressman in the House. That is the way change happens.
People who are quitting over this are, as Silverman said last night, being ridiculous-and knowing her what she wanted to say was grow the fuck up and get over yourselves! I've said it before-to many of us are so used to instant gratification that we can't stand the fact that in order to get change here we are actually going to have to get off our asses and do something. If we don't, guess what? NOTHING IS GOING TO CHAMGE.
It's shitting on the democratic process. It is actively thwarting the will of the electorate.
It is trying to give your friend an advantage. Probably with a hope of a job in a possible administration.
It is corruption and despicable.
Who knows who would have won the primaries had it been a fair fight?
Please, show me which of the emails that were leaked that would leave anyone to believe that Sanders votes weren't counted.
