3. Thank you for the update

4. Don't forget the super delegates.

5. If they counted right now, they would have been included. n/t

6. Actually many have already announced who they are voting for.

So they count now.

[xocet]

12. They will count after they vote at the convention - not before. To say otherwise is pure propaganda.

13. Did you say the same thing in 2008?

[xocet]

14. I did not address the issue in 2008. Then I was 100% pro-then-Sen. Obama for the same reason I...

now am 100% pro-Sen. Sanders - i.e., then-Sen. Clinton (in spite of the vast experience that she had) voted to allow Pres. Bush what he wanted vis-à-vis Iraq. That war never should have happened. Then-Sen. Clinton could have defined herself at that point as a great stateswoman, but she did not. Everyone knew how bad George W. Bush would be as President when he decided to run for office. That was no mystery. His intentions towards Iraq were equally no mystery.

16. In 2008 the media declared him the presumtive nominee because of his super delegate support

Before the primaries were done.

Of course this bothered you then right?

18. Accuracy and fairness always matter. n/t

7. BOTTOM LINE

Hillary needs 22% of the remaining delegates to win the nomination. Bernie needs over 100%. It's fork time.

[xocet]

11. 926 pledged delegates remain to be assigned. If Sec. Clinton performs badly in the remaining...

states, she might not achieve a majority. If that were the case, the convention will decide the nomination. If the superdelegates wish to go against the will of the people, the convention will be quite interesting.
