Sanders has run a stunningly strong campaign fueled by passionate supporters. But raising $$ stating you have path to nomination is fraud.

No one is forcing anyone to give money. Plouffe is just another Hillary shill running off at the mouth.

He's gotten a letter every month in 2016 about improper donations, many of them *gasp* foreign in origin!

New FEC Filings Reveal That Clinton’s Donations To State Parties Are Merely Pass Throughs To The DNC
Posted on April 20, 2016 by mikethemadbiologist
As usual, the regular prelude: there are good reasons to oppose and support Clinton or Sanders, but bullshit arguments and repetition of campaign propaganda is ridiculous.

Recently, I described how the Hillary Victory Fund, despite the claims of Clinton and her supporters, is not donating money to state parties, but is, instead, using them as conduits to send extremely large contributions from donors to the Democratic National Committee (DNC funds during a presidential year disproportionately go towards the presidential campaign–in part, that’s what part of the fifty-state strategy fuss was about). But there are new releases by the Federal Election Commission (‘FEC’), and they clearly illustrate how supposed support for state parties is being used to funnel money directly to the DNC.

People with glass houses..........ya know.
