Poll: Voters back Sanders as the next commander in chief

Who do Americans think would be the most trustworthy person to lead the nation’s military? The answer may surprise you. According to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll, the highest-scoring candidate for the post is Democrat Bernie Sanders, who wins a total of 38 percent of those surveyed among Democrats, Republicans and independents. Hillary Clinton also beats out her Republican rivals, placing second with 31 percent overall.

Hope this shows as true in the next coming primaries/caucuses!

TPTB, 1%, don't. That's obvious. But who controls the voting machines that are hackable? If Clinton has people in every polling place who are just as corrupt as she is...in caucuses where they flip body count numbers, send people home before counting is finished, not let people who are in line in to be counted, illegally allow UNREGISTERED VOTERS to vote, accept ballots without the people being there in person, etc...

And in primaries where her people will reprogram memory cards to flip Bernie votes to Hillary, deliberately not have enough ballots on hand for people to vote, give people the wrong polling place information, purge names from voter rolls, etc...

The shit is deep and it's ALL Clinton shit that favors HER campaign, but we're suppose to believe she's not corrupt?

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

This needs to be pointed out & discussed more. How quickly we forgive and forget. Well, it won't be forgiveable if Hillary and Bill are in the White House again or we have a President Trump! It's time to fight back!

This stuff just doesn't add up. I think there's a great deal of vote flipping going on and I've heard evidence of it from volunteers on the front lines. She plays dirty, she always has and she will say/do anything to win.

Now that would be embarrassing.

Not implying that she's as bad as Trump, but that Trump's empire will have a field day with that possibility. I'm sure that Trump's team is gathering all of the evidence to make it so.
