[QUOTE=FinalHunter;49844921]I promise you, you are wrong. Will supply evidence in 9 hours.[/QUOTE] Would you like to :toxx: that? Bradyns u fuckin fiend
Really hoping to see a couple unexpected Bernie wins. Anything to help diminish the notion that he's done after today. But really, everyone get ready to watch Trump win most of everything.
lmao ive never seen this many hillary supporters in one place dunno why anyone would ever vote for her unless theyre rich borderline neocons who wanna paint themselves as faux-progressives
[QUOTE=proboardslol;49844458]Voting for Hillary today[/QUOTE] May I ask why? I genuinely haven't heard anything other than "She's got the experience" or "She'll be able to get things done" from everybody I know that supports her, I'd like to understand how else she appeals to people.
Trump is probably going to win. Remember how everyone thought George Bush was an idiot? 8 years.

I genuinely haven't heard anything other than "She's got the experience" or "She'll be able to get things done" from everybody I know that supports her, I'd like to understand how else she appeals to people.[/QUOTE] A lot of people seem to be of the opinion that his goals are unachievable or that he's unelectable. Both of these things aren't true, though, polling puts him way ahead of Hillary in any potential match up, and his policies are incredibly worked out. The only roadblock is congress, but given how well Bernie is (or was) doing, it should be possible to get a genuinely progressive congress. Hillary's biggest asset, sadly, is the black vote, which is ridiculous given her support for mass incarceration, the colourful language she's used to refer to black communities in the past, and the fact that Bernie got arrested fighting for civil rights in the 60s. It's believed they're not willing to vote for some unknown old white guy they've never heard of vs the well known wife of Bill Clinton who was (stupidly) dubbed the 'first black president.' Bernie's biggest problem is how unknown he is.
[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;49845068]Trump is probably going to win. Remember how everyone thought George Bush was an idiot? 8 years.[/QUOTE] Yeah and that went so well.
[QUOTE=MightyLOLZOR;49845068]Trump is probably going to win. Remember how everyone thought George Bush was an idiot? 8 years.[/QUOTE] Yeah but he wasn't actively insulting millions of people and ruining geopolitical ties before even getting into office.

[QUOTE=proboardslol;49845112]Because I'm cynical and I don't believe in democracy anymore so I don't buy anything Bernie Sanders is saying[/QUOTE] So you believe Hillary's bullshit than?
[QUOTE=proboardslol;49845112]Because I'm cynical and I don't believe in democracy anymore so I don't buy anything Bernie Sanders is saying[/QUOTE] So you'll perpetuate your idea of democracy being corrupt, by voting someone into office who doesn't represent your views? Whatt???!
[QUOTE=proboardslol;49845112]Because I'm cynical and I don't believe in democracy anymore so I don't buy anything Bernie Sanders is saying[/QUOTE] Someone has a chance to make democracy work, and get in on a real solid platform that people believe in, and you're voting for someone else because you don't think democracy works?

[QUOTE=Trebgarta;49845091]Cause he doesnt like Bernie supporters.[/QUOTE] That's part of it. Really, I'm pretty cynical about the whole thing. At times I've been honest, dishonest, and semi-sarcastic about liking Hillary, but here's the bullet points for me: * Foreign Policy. Bernie has none. Where he does, it sucks. * College. I don't think Bernie can get free college in the United States. I think he overestimates his ability to close tax loopholes. If he knows that these are overestimations, then he's no better than any other politician. Hillary Wants a 20 year loan forgiveness and restructuring program, with a payment system based on after-tax discretionary spending. This, to me, sounds more achievable than trying to close tax loopholes. * Healthcare. Hillary has been for universal healthcare for a long time. Hillarycare seemed more reasonable than outright free medicare for all: those who can't pay, don't pay. Those who can pay, pay what they can. *I'm afraid that Bernie's goal to make the USA more like Europe will eliminate the United States as a private sector hub, weakening our economy as companies ship not only more jobs overseas, but move their headquarters overseas. There's others but they're eluding me right now. I don't have any illusions that Hillary isn't dishonest, but I do think she has the most reasonable ideas, with more reasonable plans. I mean, Obama is pretty dishonest, but look at all he's gotten done: he saved the Auto industry, got the ACA pushed through, became the first president to openly support gay marriage, drew back American troops from conflict zones, signed a landmark non-proliferation treaty with Russia, and brought unemployment in check.

I just don't understand how Sanders has such a large vocal group of supporters, yet Clinton is predicted to win 99% in most states. Is it something to do with how she has most of the black voters behind her?

I don't know enough about the democrats to take a side, but from my experience Bernie would stir up a lot more controversy than Hillary. If it were Bernie vs. Trump in the general, American politics would change drastically no matter the winnner

I think that, when it comes down to it, most people just don't care

Question to everyone voting Hillary, why would you vote her with all her bullshit? Have you even looked into her, or do you just go by what she is saying now?
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;49845414]Question to everyone voting Hillary, why would you vote her with all her bullshit? Have you even looked into her, or do you just go by what she is saying now?[/QUOTE] She is a slightly better rhetorician and she has the brand name. (I support Bernie)
the thing is that most of the bad things hillary does doesn't get onto the media for various reasons. so while young people who use the internet and actually see the full picture may see the negatives of hillary, most people in this nation just check their tv for news.
