Sometimes i think everyone is against Bernie

Why is the system out to get Bernie? he who would singlehandedly fix capitalism, ensure that guns hurt no one, and let his democratic self out in full glory.

even google developers are probably writing code to skew election results and polls. I think when a poll result is displayed, Bernie and Hillary results are swapped so Bernie always seems to be behind.

while I'm at it. I don't understand why Hillary should win the nomination just because she has more declared delegates and superdelegates. when does having more votes give her the right to take the nomination? Especially if, by the current changing in support, if the nomination was delayed for another year, Bernie would win. Why is Hillary so corrupt that she has worked the system so that the nominee has to be selected this year.

Hillary has all the power to corrupt the system by having votes counted, nominations this year, and 35 years as a lawyer, first lady, best selling author, senator, secretary of state. what does she know. And given the chance, couldn't all of us do what she's done? Bernie could. And Hillary didn't let him do any of those things. I would vote for Bernie but Hillary won't let me.

This is no Bernie supporter, this is a troll. I have forwarded it to the DU authorities for review.

bullying at its best.

you can just ignore the post - there was no swearing or anything. Just some ideas that you may not agree with.

But I bet you don't have any issues with posts calling Hillary a criminal or bringing up Lewinsky or the ugly comments about Hillary's appearance.

He's been in politics for 35 years and they only just let him into the Democratic party for the first time this year! Unbelievable! Why do they have it out for this poor guy?

They won't get rich on a Congressman salary, and their most valuable commodity is their congressional vote.
