    Based on what I'm seeing on my Facebook feed, Bernouts aren't buying it. Muds and cat ladies will not be sufficient to elect Hillary. You need white liberals too. Especially in states like Oregon, Wisconsin, Michigan, etc...

    rewatching it now.... didnt realize they actually had a cerebral palsy patient as a speaker

    and people thought the RNC show was trying to prey on emotions
    Hillary made my dad explode in Lybia vs. inclusion of a handicap person who can speak with a shaky voice.

    Basically yep. Both work.

    INTEGRITY DISQUALIFIES SANDERS FOR WHITE HOUSE

    WASHINGTON — The Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders’s potential bid for the 2016 Presidency was declared over, on Monday, before it even began, because of a key feature of the American political system that makes a person with integrity ineligible for the White House.

    According to some experts, the electoral system has developed a number of safeguards over the past few decades to prevent someone with independence and backbone from occupying the Presidency.


    “Bernie Sanders’s failure to become a member of either major political party excludes him from the network of cronyism and backroom deals required under our system to be elected,” said Davis Logsdon, a political scientist at the University of Minnesota.

    “Though that failure alone would disqualify Sanders, the fact that he is not beholden to a major corporate interest or investment bank would also make him ineligible.”


    Because of his ineligibility, Logsdon said, the Vermont Senator would be unable to fund-raise the one billion dollars required under the current system to run for President.

    “The best source of a billion dollars is billionaires, and Sanders has alienated them,” he said. “Clearly he didn’t think this through.”

    Logsdon said that Sanders might persist in his quest for the White House despite his ineligibility but that such an effort would be doomed to fail.

    “Our political system has been refined over the years specifically to keep people like Bernie Sanders out of the White House,” he said.

    “The system works.”

    That's because Republicans actually watch people they disagree with.
    No, that's not why.

    Cory Booker, future president right here
    He was the most impressive on both sides as a future presidential candidate.

    "That's because Republicans actually watch people they disagree with."

    Going back at least to Clinton, Repugs totally deny even the legitimacy any opposition, just as they deny science and facts and rationality.

    God is on the Repugs' side, so Satan is on the side of the opposition. Ask Ben "Sleepy Bear" Carson

    Too late in the game now. What's he supposed to say? Vote for Trump? That onion article summarizes it pretty well. Even if Shillary is an absolute neocon turd, for staunch progressives (iow Bernie's fans), how is Trump a better option?

    I won't vote for either, but for those kind of guys, telling them Trump is better for them would be a pretty hard and stupid sell right now.
    If Trump wins they can try again in 4 years, if Hillary wins they are done for 8 years.

    On Day One, Democrats ruthlessly exposed a core Trump weakness

    The biggest speeches of the night, from New Jersey Senator Cory Booker, Mic e Obama, Elizabeth Warren, and Bernie Sanders, projected a tone that seemed designed to contrast sharply with the hate-and-rage-fest otherwise known as the GOP convention.

    All of them, in one way or another, sought to align the Democratic Party, optimistically and aspirationally, with culturally and demographically changing America.

    They explicitly called out Trumpism — the rendition of it featured at the GOP convention — as brimming over with reactionary hostility towards the evolving and diversifying America of the 21st century.

    All of this is driven in part by the fact that the voter groups out of which Democrats hope to assemble a winning national coalition — college educated whites, nonwhites, women, young voters — appear to reject the xenophobia and ethno-nationalism at the core of Trumpism’s appeal. But there’s a key nuance here.

    There is a direct link between Trump’s alienation of key demographics and the lack of high profile surrogates that will be there for him this fall.

    But Sanders' own delegates were as angry as ever Tuesday morning, just hours after he implored them to support Clinton in his prime-time speech. Sanders delegates in California booed down speakers, including Clinton supporter Rep. Xavier Becerra. At one point in Becerra's brief talk, some delegates hopped on tables with Sanders signs, while other delegates pounded loudly on the tables in unison.
    As of early Tuesday morning, it did not look like even Sanders would be able to sway his supporters.

    "Believe it or not we are not all blind followers of Bernie. We love Bernie and everything he represents, but all because he tells us to do something doesn't mean we will," said Kari Garcia, a 25-year-old Sanders supporter who went to the convention with the California delegation.

    Garcia and others at her table, including Sanders delegate Brian Carolus, were loudly booing and chanting "Bernie!" throughout the California breakfast.

    Carolus, a 27-year-old delegate from California, said calls for them to get behind Clinton or face a Trump presidency amounted to "victim-blaming."

    "I don't like that characterization, because it's blaming the victim. It's victim-blaming. We are the victims of their fraud and their corruption and their cheating," said Carolus, who cited the leaked DNC emails as part of his mistrust of the Democratic Party.p

    DNC BREAKS FEDERAL LAW AT CONVENTION: VIOLATION OF SECTION 8 U.S. Code § 1324

    The DNC aided and abetted two illegal aliens on Monday night during the nationally televised DNC Convention 2016 in Philadelphia. Thus, according to the law, the DNC twice violated Section 8 U.S. Code 1324.


    At 8:04pm local time, the DNC invited an illegal alien to accompany her daughter to tout Hillary Clinton for president. During her speech, which was televised on national TV, the daughter explicitly said her mother is in the United States illegally. Minutes before the mother and daughter team took to the stage, the DNC played a video showing the daughter communicating with Hillary Clinton during one of her tour stops in Nevada. It was then that the daughter (Karla) admitted to Hillary Clinton that her mother (Francisca) received a government issued letter of deportation. Clearly, the mother is ignoring the deportation order, and so to is the DNC and Hillary Clinton.

    Following the mother / daughter act, another illegal alien took to the podium at 8:09pm local time. Her name is Astrid Silva, and she said in clear english, “I came to America illegally with my mother when I was 4-years old. We crossed the river [Rio Grande] on a raft.”

    Won't happen tomorrow or the next day though. This convention doesn't need that to get ratings.

    More right-wing critical thinking fail, you swallowed without doing your homework. This is the kind of thing that gives me evidence to say that conservatives tend to be really bad at critical thinking.

    Which part of that law did the DNC break? Be specific, and tell how it was broken.
