We don’t pride ourselves on democracy.
We are a Constitutional Representative Republic. We pride ourselves on freedom.
I will be attending Bernie’s rally today at my alma matter, then Trump’s at First Niagara Center next Monday. The turnout for Bernie should be significant, since UB is a pretty liberal college (arn’t they all?! Hyuk-yuk). And Trumps is DEFINITELY going to be packed. There are a lot of Trump supporters outside the city that will show up, I’m sure.
Never in my time as legally eligible to vote has the presidential primary gotten to New York with something at stake.
Should be interesting (I hope)
Are you around Buffalo? Let us know how those rallies turn out, I’d be curious to hear about them as I’m from around that area originally.
Trump porn is coming! Well a parody to be exact.
Yeah, I live in Buffalo, and sure, I’ll gladly share.
So we got there about 30 minutes before the doors opened, and the line was insane. It was also very cold, wet and poorly organized. Even though admission was free (and no tickets required), they suddenly wanted everyone in line to sign up on their website last minute to get a barcode to scan in with (obviously so that they can get your e-mail and spam you with campaign shit). Because of this, the line was moving really slow. Eventually, they realized how stupid this was and just let everyone in.
We got inside, but there were about 3,000 more people who couldn’t get in as the arena was in full capacity. We listened to about 4 other speakers (one of which was from Communication Workers of America union, who announced that Verizon workers are going on strike), before Sanders came. Unfortunately, he wanted to speak with all the people who were stuck outside before coming in, so he was about 30 min late.
So he comes in, everyone is hype and screaming and thumping, etc. He basically reiterated his usual talking points (raise minimum wage, no fracking, free college, free health care, etc.), and bagged on Clinton’s support of the Iraq War, her special-interest-backed super pacs, and her speaches to Wall Street. He also mentioned some Buffalo-specific stuff about how NAFTA supported businesses like Ford to move jobs overseas.
Once he starting talking about the gender wage gap as if it were real (and not the myth it ACTUALLY is), we were sick to our stomachs and left.
So yeah, big turnout, mostly young people. In fact, some weren’t even old enough to vote. One group in particular were a bunch of shitheads making stupid jokes about Trumps penis.
…and apparently Black Lives Matters has a presidential candidate. A supporter was handing out flyers in line.
Watched the debate on Wednesday. Debates really don’t help Bernie very much because the medias are on Hillary’s side and Hillary’s speaking skills outrank Bernie.
Bernie has been talking about the big money affecting Hillary’s policies, and yet he couldn’t raise one instance. He can’t keep counting on her secret speeches to the big banks as his ticket to victory. This is his number 1 attack point on Hillary, he really needs to back that up if he wants to win.
Also don’t know why Bernie never calls out Hillary on “Obama did it too, why can’t I?” He’s letting her get away with pulling someone else’s race card to win an argument.
Hillary’s policy on making community colleges free as opposed to Bernie’s policy on making all the public colleges free make way more sense. College PC culture is already bad enough with expensive tuition, can you imagine if it’s free?
And lol, I didn’t know he’s against nuclear power. That’s so bad. You can’t run a country this size with just wind and solar.
I predicted that Sanders would lose this race by not having the will to outright crush Hillary from the beginning. He reaffirmed her position and viability, when he could have been done with it.
If Sanders wants to win, he needs to go down the road trump is and start shining a light on the absurdity that are super delegates. For a party that professor itself on democratic principle and expanding that powerx the democrats sure are dull of shit.
Like clockwork Sanders is just going to bow his head in shame and silence when he is robbed of the nominee just like that time he was cucked at his own rally by a bunch losers with no message.
Someone should’ve gotten Sanders to read Domination 101 before running.
His declaration in the first debate that no one cared about Hillary’s e-mails was the equivalent of a mall rat scrub declaring at the start of a match that he’s not going to throw.
Meanwhile his opponent is ptw by any means necessary, jostling with her elbows and mashing loudly during his combos.
Bernie’s crowd in that debate was more on point than he was. They booed Hillary’s bullshit every time she pull it.
I don’t think Bernie can count on the email thing until we are sure Hillary’s going to prison because using Republican talking points is very likely to cost him supporters.
He needs to take down all of Hillary’s defense mechanism quickly, starting with her Obama crutch. He just need to point out that her campaign used to attack Obama for being a Kenyan Muslim drug dealer, and yet after a whole year he still hasn’t done it.
Maybe after Sanders wins New York the media will start treating Sanders as a serious candidate…

That quote is WAY too optimistic. Unpledged delegates is where most of Clinton’s lead is anyway, and he only got a handful of delegates from those 3 states. To get any major boost from NY, Sanders has to beat Clinton and beat her HARD. He can’t keep going 50-50 and 55-45 with her.
Too bad Democrat doesn’t have winner take all states.
Then it wouldn’t give them the power to choose their candinate.
Larry King once again has to emphasize that Trump is not a racist, sure is difficult to be his long time friend.

Just voted in the New York primary. Been a registered democrat since I first enrolled when I was 18, and although I am still undecided, I do know that I do not want Hilary Clinton as our next POTUS.
So the choice was obvious.
Had a nice pipe smoke with my favorite tobacco on the walk home from the polls.
A good day indeed.

God damn, none of my news streams work. Trump killed it in NY and the state went Hillary’s way?
Lol NY.
