I voted for Sanders. But I can do math.

[ButterflyBlood]

Sanders would need about 2/3 of the remaining vote in California to win it.
Even if he did he'd still be behind in delegates.
He obviously won't win DC with its demographics.
Even if he somehow won 100% of the vote in DC he'd still be behind in delegates.

Sanders ran a great campaign. As our President noted in his endorsement video he brought a lot of important issues to the table and will have a say on the platform. For that he deserves praise and I hope he continues to raise these issues in the Senate.

But we have a nominee now and it's time to get behind her.

4. The math you are forgetting

The math that adds all the wonderful perks the rich and powerful backers of the Clinton campaign will receive as payback for their graft, which Erik be extracted from the backs of the poor and middle classes ...

You forgot that part ...

Goodbye ...

5. "it's time to get behind her"

not sure how convincing that will be to the #BernieorBust crowd...just sayin'.

7. the Bernie-or-Bust crew's numbers will dwindle and dwindle and dwindle

who's going to invest serious time in a movement whose sole purpose is to render its members irrelevant and voiceless?

it'll wind up being the same blowhards who've been voting third party since 1992.

8. Thank you - you insightful, true progressive person!

9. That's not quite how it works.

There's a convention and a platform still to come, and with Sanders set to show up with a small ocean of delegates, what's coming is less of a dictatorship and something more like--gasp!--a political party's agenda.

Let's make it the best it can be.
