Kicketty Kickin' Faux pas Mar 2020 #1

Thank you. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #3

Yeah Faux pas Mar 2020 #5

Revisionist nonsense. HarlanPepper Mar 2020 #2

She withdrew in June of 2008. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #6

... HarlanPepper Mar 2020 #8

You did invite the question. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #9

Hillary got out before the convention. HarlanPepper Mar 2020 #12

The process is partly to blame. And history is history. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #15

ROFLMGAO! William769 Mar 2020 #60

That gif never gets old! zackymilly Mar 2020 #62

And this campaign we seem to need it a lot. William769 Mar 2020 #63

. . . Codeine Mar 2020 #90

She withdrew 2 1/2 months before the convention. I hope Sanders does so 4 months pampango Mar 2020 #82

You said mcar Mar 2020 #86

Yep. Endorsed three days after Obama secured the nomination. ThisIsNotPossible Mar 2020 #24

Actually Clinton dropped out in June 2 months be the Convention. Dem4Life1102 Mar 2020 #4

Should that be the pattern? guillaumeb Mar 2020 #7

only one pattern matters - bernie hasnt gained anything vote wise in 4 yrs of planning nt msongs Mar 2020 #11

HRC was still in the race. Sanders is not this time, and wasn't in the 2016 race. Spoiler. LizBeth Mar 2020 #13

Why limit the rights of voters to actually vote? guillaumeb Mar 2020 #19

Party unity and beat Trump. Sanders is about donations and causing problems. LizBeth Mar 2020 #23

I disagree on the second. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #26

Sanders and his supporters already showed us who they were when it comes to the convention. LizBeth Mar 2020 #29

Sanders already said he would support the eventual nominee. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #33

I vote in May, I want to vote Warren, not all about me. That would be the difference LizBeth Mar 2020 #36

Every vote counts, and every voter should have an opportunity. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #39

I am good with a shorter process being in May. The race is over. We need to get behind Biden, LizBeth Mar 2020 #49

I hope, and feel, that we will support the nominee. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #53

Sanders said this morning, old people, black people, middle age women, your vote is wrong. LizBeth Mar 2020 #56

Sometmes Sanders lacks nuance. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #64

I was thinking about this, put it out on Fb. Biden is addressing the crisis at hand. LizBeth Mar 2020 #66

Understood. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #68

Biden is doing it today. Thank you Biden. Biden has won the primary. LizBeth Mar 2020 #70

My wife and I both feel he will win Illinois. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #72

"Good luck at work." I know, I hear you. Luck. I have been thinking it a lot this morning. LizBeth Mar 2020 #74

Btw, hands down I felt Warren was the most solid candidate. She is no longer in the race. LizBeth Mar 2020 #67

I hope she is the VP pick. eom guillaumeb Mar 2020 #69

It would be awesome; I think everyone decided she is needed in Senate. I like her taking Schumers LizBeth Mar 2020 #71

That would be incredible. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #73

See? This is how we can get on board. I think Obama showed us how to untie. Get our good people LizBeth Mar 2020 #75

And since you like to put 2008 as an example, HRC made sure it was well before the convention so LizBeth Mar 2020 #31

Either the Convention or when a Candidate gets a Majority. MarcA Mar 2020 #17

That is not a rule. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #21

That won't matter to those who are fact averse. HarlanPepper Mar 2020 #18

They were both still in the race and when HRC no longer was in the race, she dropped, back Obama LizBeth Mar 2020 #10

But she did not exit in March of 2008. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #14

Clinton had a path to win, Sanders does not. Not rocket science. LizBeth Mar 2020 #16

iIRC 2 were closer. Hillary long--time dem, Pretty clear she would support dem bobbieinok Mar 2020 #20

You are full of it. Get your facts straight. W_HAMILTON Mar 2020 #22

The way you describe 2008 is not what actually happened whopis01 Mar 2020 #25

HRC did not exit in march of 2008. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #28

What I said was "The way you describe 2008 is not what actually happened" whopis01 Mar 2020 #50

I doubt you'll get a straight answer Clash City Rocker Mar 2020 #58

I'll say - they are a troll. n/t whopis01 Mar 2020 #59

At this point, Hillary had won 12 states... Drunken Irishman Mar 2020 #27

Most of the country has not actually voted. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #30

Maybe but we're going off what we have right now. Drunken Irishman Mar 2020 #38

Every voter should be able to cast a meaningful vote. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #42

Yeah. That's irrelevant to RIGHT NOW. Drunken Irishman Mar 2020 #44

Sanders is trying to expand the limits of the conversation. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #46

Never claimed he didn't. Drunken Irishman Mar 2020 #48

I hope, and feel, that Sanders will work for the eventual nominee. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #51

It's whether he works for them after all but kneecapping the person for no reason or doing it now. Drunken Irishman Mar 2020 #57

Understood. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #65

He won't. We don't need him. Demsrule86 Mar 2020 #94

And if we didnt have caged babies and a GOP incumbent, i would not worry so much. Demsrule86 Mar 2020 #95

Everyone knows where he stands. TwilightZone Mar 2020 #54

Sanders MFM008 Mar 2020 #32

HRC did not exit in March of 2008. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #34

Now that MFM008 Mar 2020 #43

We might even agree on who the nominee will be. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #45

The difference is bluescribbler Mar 2020 #35

In my view, the difference is that (I) behind Sanders' name. guillaumeb Mar 2020 #37

A big who cares. Beating Trump is what matters. And you all are just hoping he wins somehow. Demsrule86 Mar 2020 #96

So this OP is a lie. nt LexVegas Mar 2020 #40

They were very close in pledged delegates frazzled Mar 2020 #41

We know that never happened. Bernie should drop out now. oasis Mar 2020 #47

"Neither dropped out prior to the Convention." TwilightZone Mar 2020 #52

Sanders is not hoping for a repeat of 2008. Skidmore Mar 2020 #55

That's not true. StarfishSaver Mar 2020 #61
