Essential "The Real Truth Is Wall Street Regulates Congress": The Offical Bernie Sanders CircleJerk Thread

[RickyGQ]

Mannnnnn listen... nobody says this either... That shyt happened in August. WAY BEFORE he even had the momentum he has now. But all I hear is, Bernie pandering now... People so dishonest it's hilarious.

The trend I see now is people truly trying to be partial and point the negatives out of both candidates, but don't weigh the negatives. Bernie certainly isn't perfect, but his negatives are much lighter than Hillarys.

I'm getting my ass up this afternoon and going to phone bank for Bernie for the Super Tuesday states.

Turns out the event was yesterday and I misread the post, I'll go to the one tomorrow.

So I went to phonebank for a few hours. A few thoughts:

- it's very easy in terms of the setup and you can even place calls from home since its all through the online platform
- I didn't speak to too many people (placed about 40-50 calls), most calls weren't answered or people hung up right away
- too many voters. About 10% of my calls were to people like 85+
- young people don't fukking vote! Voting is the most passive form of political participation but it is still a useful tool!
- I called one very enthusiastic voter in Minnesota who said his whole family is supporting Bernie and we can count on their support
- Called a few people who said they were Republicans One or two Shillary supporters too

He's right, but he's not counting the superdelegates. By not having a real challenge for S.C., he's telling Black superdelegates, most of whom are sellouts and have been little but Civil Right's Era profiteers, that they were right in jumping on the likely nominee's side instead of supporting this flash in the pan, and risk the punishment of the Clinton machine. We need just under 2400 delegates to win and Hillary has 544 to Sanders 85 as of right now. He has to get some of her superdelegates to want to flip. They're sellouts and will go with whom will be the power broker.

Super Tuesday is going to have the same situation as S.C. in the Southern states and Bernie, tbh, got punched in the face here. He will not win a single southern state. Hopefully, this will bring out the Sander's fans in the NE and Midwest, but 35-50 percent of Democrats are tools of the establishment and things really weren't so bad with them under Obama.

This seems like a mountain right now, and Bernie really needs a great Monday endorsement from someone like Elizabeth Warren or Joe Biden.

Super Tuesday Delegate counts:

STATE DELEGATES
Alabama 60
American Samoa 10
Arkansas 37
Colorado 79
Georgia 117
Massachusetts 116
Minnesota 93
Oklahoma 42
Tennessee 76
Texas 251
Vermont 26
Virginia 109
Democrats abroad 17

Hillary definite wins in bold. Even if distribution is proportional, if Sanders performs in the bold anywhere close to what he did in S.C., he has not chance in hell. He'll likely do amazing in California, but the race would be over before then.

Motherfukk Super delegates.

Sanders cannot lose by more than 15% in Texaa, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, or Mass. to have a fair shot to win. S.C. could be the roadblock that killed his momentum, which had an amazing trajectory. Now voters will be tempted with FOMO (fear of missing out) on bragging about the likely president. Was the same thing that helped turn the tide for Obama. There's no "race speech" coming for Bernie though. The media is fully against him, and the Clintons know how to make effective, albeit deceitful and juvenile, attacks.

Bernie has to fight back, in kind, or wrap this shyt up B.

Welcome to cold calling. Try not being a p*ssy next time.


Working hard with no reward... Sounds like a job Bernie would create.

What the fukk are you talking about?

 

[MrSinnister]

He discovered combs wayyyyyy too late in his career.


Dude trying to be a Deadhead in 1990's.


He's the best we got since Warren fukked it off, so . If we had ANYONE else, with Bernie's principles, we'd be taking Hillary's lunch money every day in 2016 once those mkts dropped.

 

[MrSinnister]

Robert Reich running his mouth, but he supported Obama's choice of Sandoval.


All these wishy washy get their bread buttered by both sides motherfukkers.
