1. We have Primaries tomorrow lol, specifically in California where Bernie has a great chance at winning

 

2. Neither of them have a path to victory without Super Delegates

 

3. The Nominee is decided at the Convention in July & the Super Delegates vote in July, not June, JULY!!!!! A huge chunk of these Super Delegates pledged to vote for Hillary before Bernie came in or before Iowa & many of the Super Delegates have yet to switch over even from States he won (Washington)

 

Please enlighten me on how our media actually isn't corrupt, truthful & on our side :-)

1. HIllary has enough pledged delegates + superdelegates that she has already crossed the threshold to win the nomination without the states voting today. Even if Bernie wins California, he would not come close to matching Hillary's pledged delegate or popular vote account.

2. Neither did Obama, did not stop the media from declaring him the presumptive nominee in June of 2008 before the convention.

3. The definition of presumptive is " presumed in the absence of further information." We have no information that any of these superdelegates will be switching to Bernie, news networks have been in contact with them which is how they get their counts. There is no factual error with declaring her the presumptive nominee. Trump was declared the presumptive nominee well before he got the delegates/votes he needed to cross the threshold. 

Bernie lost. It's not a media conspiracy.

Er actually this is bad for Clinton because some will just assume their vote doesn't matter at this point.

Meanwhile Sanders supporters will be emboldened to "stick it to the media" 

Her delegate count did change after superdelegates declared for her, some of which were previously supporting Bernard.

Er, actually, it's not bad for Clinton. She does better when voter turnout is lower. This stunt will substantially impact casual Bernie supporters who think he lost. 

Not to mention that this will negatively effect down-ticket races.

Huh? That's objectively false. The best example is Washington where Sanders won the caucus attended by 20k while the pointless primary later on had Clinton winning with 70k voters.

Someone who supports the GOP has no right to talk about undemocratic voting principles

In some states, the people's vote is irrelevant because they vote for someone who then votes for them and they have no way of knowing if that vote will change  

She's ahead because of the democratic primary voting system. The only reason Sanders is remotely close is because of caucuses which are grossly undemocratic.

In fact if the Democratic Party followed the GOP "winner takes all" system, Hillary would have won ages ago  

Stop  

It's weird to think about this election ending. It seems like it's just lasted forever tbh. Just swear her in and get it over with already

Save us from the big orange monster

She has won unless Bernie wins in a landslide tonight which would take a miracle.

She'll have the media and all celebrities on her side. On paper she should win in a landslide.

Sander's has actually won the state's with the lowest turnout. (Just because Bernie says something over and over and over....doesn't make it true)

Those down ticket races that Bernie has not supported with time or by raising money? Yes, it would be better for down ticket candidates if the process went up to the last state, but that never happens. Oftentimes, the presumptive nominee has been declared long before the last states roll around.

Conclusion:

I come from privilege. I can handle a few names and hit-lists here and there. But I know I've never faced the kind of criticism that Hillary Clinton has been forced to endure over the past quarter-century. Seeing her consistently rise above the fray is inspiring. For those that actually take the time to see this woman for who she truly is, you'll find her to be a lifetime public servant who has consistently fought for those without a voice. School integration. Children's access to education. Children's access to health care. Recovery funds for New York after 9/11. Women's rights. LGBT rights. The DREAM Act. She goes to bat for these groups because it is who she is and what she does. She has not been handed the Democratic nomination on a silver platter, she has gone out there and earned it. This is a culmination of her life's work. It is not something she feels entitled to or something that has been given to her. She has gone out and fought, like no woman before her, and has overcome every single obstacle in her path to history. At the end of the day, each and every person in this country has a chance to reward this woman's tenaciousness and tenacity by simply voting for her for president on November 8th. 

After all she's been through, it's the least you can do.

I stress that you can do what you want but if you don't want to see Trump in office, vote blue. I just did

and Hillary will be the nominee no doubt but I applaud Bernie for not giving up yet. Shows he really wants change.
