He got booed off the stage? No he didn't. Show us the video where this happens and everyone here will see how full of shit you are. Your selective memory is a joke. Someone in the crowd snapped at him because he brought up the fact that he marched with MLK, and has always been an advocate and activist for civil rights and the plight of minorities. If anything, that showing really soured my view of the interviewer "joy Anne Reid" and the crowd.
LOL, OK, so he was loudly booed and I exaggerated. Too funny that you'd say it was a good thing the audience was polite enough to let him finish.

You are willing to simply let Trump win if you don't get a person who meets your litmus test. As I said before, Cult of Sanders are very authoritarian. Also white men because they can afford another four more years of Trump because his policies aren't out to get you.
there you go with the identity politics again. Again I know your rhetoric is poison the well, hope nobody notices.

Just pointing out that Sanders supporters who are mostly white males can afford four more years of Trump. I don't think you'd hear the same from most women, black and Hispanic voters. Convenient for you, that.

You know you're full of shit. Good. Just needed clarification.
Too funny you'd say "he was not forced off the stage, they just booed him loudly and politely let him finish". That's so weak. You miss the point. Black people, women especially do not support him.

are you white? I'm guessing from how vapidly you use them as political props and antagonists detrimental to my political goals, but I have no racial animus toward minorities. I am a minority (Puerto Rican jew) and I don't want trump elected. You are embarrassingly Naive if you think minorities will agree with you just because you hoist them as some group who wants to be placated toward.

Grow a fucking spine and stop treating minorities like props. On the substance of political platforms, puerto Ricans and latinx communities are more in support of people like AOC and Bernie Sanders(she literally worked on his 2015 campaign as a staffer). Not milquetoast candidates like Biden.

You don't have enough skin in the game if you are willing to just let Trump win if the voters of the Democratic Party don't select whom you want. That's dismissive of other people's ability to choose.

You're attacking leftists because we staunchly stand against anything that smells like a republican. I'm not looking for middle ground. Trump dragged the country so far right, that middle ground today is George Bush's and Dick Cheney's catastrophic neo-conservatism. Listen to Biden talk about Dick Cheney. You guys hate Bernie more than these fucking fascist sympathizers and collaborators. Grow a fucking spine.

Right, so if you don't get your way, you'll let Trump win. You don't have enough skin in the game to care about what he will does to minorities and women. Or the climate for that matter.

I don't hate Bernie. People in his cult I'd rate as highly as a bad case of toe jam. But I don't hate Bernie. He's OK, but insufficient.

The entire DNC was insufficient in 2016, you have to wonder why? Keep blaming Sanders supporters and you'll be hit with the same truth. I'll be here to tell you, I told ya so.


You have no spine, you won't even take a simple bet. Choose your candidate, when they fail you disappear from these forums. Or I do.

if you think my vote in NY has any sway over the election, you're more naive than I initially thought.
Ohhh, that's bold. New York is a pretty safe state for Democrats so you'd withhold your vote as a symbolic protest. How very dramatic of you.

What if you were in a battleground state?

By the way, I hate the fucking EC. It's the President of the United States and we should all have an equal vote when we select him or her.

when did I say I would withhold my vote? I voted for hillary, it didn't hand trump the fucking election you dunce. That's my point. You always assume to know what your interlocutors believe without ever asking. You make so many assumptions that are unfounded, I wonder if you are even aware of how dishonest you are.

There are about 30 million people who still have health care that would disagree with you about "insufficient Democrats". I take it your insurance wasn't going to be affected if they repealed the ACA. Also don't forget that GOP made a play to privatize Social Security and Medicare. Your willingness to toss people with pre-existing conditions, people without a health plan from work and seniors off the cliff if you don't get your way is a stark difference between you and I.

I keep telling you, I'll tow the line if you are right and Sanders/Gabbard (ick) or that other guy wins. I'd vote for them if they win the nomination. I like Warren so I wouldn't be holding my nose if she won.

You said it at the very beginning of our argument. It's almost the entire reason I can't stand your Cult of Sanders. You said it right here:

I will likely look for a third party or write in. I don't believe the Dccc and the DNC have Americans best interests in mind when they choose to be collaborators with proto-fascists like trump. We need to drag the overton window back to FDR era Social-Democratic roots. They're the most popular policies that even Republicans agree with the majority of the time (infrastructure spending, Medicare for all, strengthening social security). I believe Bernie created the momentum for many other candidates to succeed where he may fail. He's set the litmus for being anti-super PAC, pro M4A, discussed legalizing cannabis federally in 2015.
You dickheads need our support if Sanders or Gabbard (ick) win the nomination but threaten to withdraw your support if you don't get your way.
