Quite possibly the weirdest pro Sanders site I've seen yet.

It was linked here:


http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511558898



Some of the headlines from the site:

"Obama lets Orrin Hatch pick Scalia's replacement"

"Clinton campaign found to be behind violence at Trump rallies"

"Arizona: results seemed to be flipped,rigged"


"Anti semitism plays a key role in Clinton's South Carolina victory"



and a whole shitload of anti vax nonsense.


But my personal favorite:


WILL DENNIS KUCINICH FINALLY BE ELECTED PRESIDENT
IN 2016?

First rule in assessing the trustworthiness of a site is to look up who runs/owns it!

And in my experience, it's almost always shady, if it's a politically based website.

I've hidden my WHOIS info before, but it was because i've been stalked online. I still always provided a contact email. And my stuff was entertainment based websites, not anything that was trying to influence public opinion.

That wouldn't happen to be the million people in Arizona who felt the bern but didn't feel like finding out the rules for their primary, would it?

In the end, the Sander's campaign is going to go down in history as Folie a Millennials!

My favorite part, before I quit reading..."Writers for the Justice Gazette were in Phoenix on March 21st and conducted their own poll, which showed a probable victory for Bernie Sanders of at least 60 to 40%."
