Another Question: Whatever happened to Losing?

[Cigar]

Why is it now popular for The Losers to Whine and Cry until they get something ... as if they deserve something for losing?

Ask the liberals.

Conservatives would only give prizes for first place. Everyone else lost.

Nina Turner: "Dem Party needs to acknowledge pain of Sanders supporters." NO, NinaThis is not an encounter session or group therapy. It's a political convention.

How long are we supposed to wipe these people's tears, hold their hands and kiss their boo boos?

This is ridiculous. These people need to F'ing grow up, Left and Right ... so don't always get what you want.

I was a Bernie supporter, but he lost ... I'll get over it.

It was a hard reality for me. Because I fought hard. Now, we won some great battles, but the reality is the system didn't cheat us.

Now the contents of the leaked emails show individuals were definitely biased, but 7 folks on an email didn't "steal" the election.

I didn't expect Bernie to win, but I'm not particularly surprised that the DNC did what they could to undermine him.

[Cigar]

I said conservatives.


Ok my bad

It was wrong, and we all knew what was going on, it wasn't hard to see ... Debbie is out, and now it's time to put someone in who can do it right this time.

[Crepitus]

BS. It was stolen. We will never know what the true outcome would have been because it was bent well before the first primary vote was cast.

Not true ... the Raw Number are what they are.

Individual Votes counts and Bernie didn't nearly get enough ... I'm a Bernie supporter, bit I'm not a denier of the truth.

Yes the systems is rigged, but it's been that was for longer than Hillary has been alive.

You're an optimist Cigar. Wasserman will be replaced with another "Debbie" who will do as the party chieftains dictate. I won't lie. I think that the duopoly sucks. America needs at least two more political parties to even remotely represent the population.

Hillary got maybe 55% of the elected democratic delegates.

Trump got maybe 45% of the elected gop delegates--the lowest percentage for a nominee since the modern primary system began in 1972.

People can be swayed! When it was apparent that Sanders was behind from day one due to the super delegates many people did not bother voting in the primaries. Why bother.

Raw numbers? What makes you think we ever saw any raw uninfluenced numbers? The DNC was in Clinton's pocket before the first primary.

Every number we saw as bent. We will never know what the true results would have been. The chance to find that out was taken from us, just like the chance of winning the nomination was take from Sanders.

Who cares what trump got?

Hillary got her's with the cheating assistance of the DNC.

I have to admit, before now, I've never paid any attention to a Party Chair, they just were never that important.

But this is what I remember, Bernie Sanders NEEDED the DNC to get his message out.

As an Independent, he wouldn't have gotten anywhere.

You can't always get what you want, but hopefully you get what you need. This is something my Mother always told me.

We're talking about Bernie now, and Bernie will always be remembered, because he ran as a Democrat.

It is true, they were influencing people from before the word go. The whole thing was a scam. Don't know why they even bothered to hold primaries, they had already picked their candidate and were prepared to do anything to ensure her win.

Sadly, you're right. Bernie had no chance running as an independent and why is that?
