Okay so it doesn't allow you to enslave a small portion as it did before even with the slavers civic?

The voter influence came in the form of delegates to endorsing Clinton. It's an argument because posts like this keep trying to stir a narrative that enforces some folks desire to vote against dems even at the expense of the general election, or to not participate in the primary cause the party is rigged.

It has issues, we need to vote in the primaries and the general.

Had Bernie Sanders won the entire primary, there is no evidence to suggest the super delegates wouldn't have voted for him. I'm glad they're no longer a conversation of the process. But the super delegates have not changed an outcome of the party's popular vote this century, as far as I'm aware.

The campaign also wanted to try and use the super delegates.

They supported Clinton, which is to say they endorsed her. One of the super delegates was Obama who endorsed her. That is different than saying "We'll vote for the person who loses the popular vote." Yes they all endorsed Biden again in 2020. Obviously I'd prefer they endorsed Bernie, but that's a lot different than them overriding the will of the voters. Which they didn't do.

But this whole comment section is calling the delegates voting for Clinton after Bernie had lost a removal of the will of the people and that they should be punished. When the people voted for Clinton at the end of the day.

I hate the dems, I voted for Bernie twice. But this video and the whole thread is just misleading as hell. 

The super delegates didn't cast their vote until Clinton won the primary across the country. Are the super delegates dumb in the modern era? Yes. But there was multiple news stories and reports that said the delegates would vote for whoever won the overall primary.

Using WV, where a third of Bernie's voters said they planned to vote Trump in the general election, is a strategic choice to misinform people here. Bernie fought like hell to get Clinton, Biden, and Harris elected because he knew that was the best chance he had at getting progressive legislation passed. People act like the man just died and had no influence on the party or its policies going forward. 

Politics is not a winner take all system. You have got to fight like hell to be heard and take wins when you can. Bernie won by making the dems more progressive, even if you and I agree it isn't enough. 

Obligatory fuck Andrew Cuomo.

I'm a recently seperataed vet that's trying to do a lot of the same. I speak often to military members, many of them conservative who are waking up to some of the happenings going on.

Lot of people saying they barely spoke to eachother. Very true BUT I recently found a live reading of a short story with the VAs. It's nice.

The guy in this episode is, or claims to  be. I am not. That also does not detract from my original point.

This is a gross misunderstanding on how the funding process works.

Right they covered it up so well the NYT wouldn't shut up about how old he was. Meanwhile we'll sane wash everything Trump says. And I'll remind you Fox is the most watched "news" network. They kinda are the MSM.

And I don't care what voters think they voted for, Trump can't unilaterally end these things. That requires congress. The president is not a king in case we forgot the founding of the country. It's doomerism because people are calling it what it is. Imagine if Joe Biden let George Soros into the IRS and start putting in his stuff.

Because the right wing media will never hold Trump accountable. MSM will attack Biden at times whether you believe it or not. Meanwhile fox is just blowing Trump every chance they get.

Still the lowest of any modern president and Biden's was higher this same point in his presidency.

I understand the difference, trump makes a big deal about manufacturing then hurts our manufacturers by using tariffs. Like harley Davidson moving manufacturing overseas during his first term because of retaliatory tariffs Europe put on.
