meaning she won 14 of them.

.....two non-binding primaries in undemocratic caucus states.

In total (not including those two) Clinton has won 27, Sanders only 21.

Clinton has won states representing about 215 million Americans, Sanders only 66 million Americans.

I think the biggest learning here is people believe anything on social media.

You need a Snopes article to tell if it's a meme or not?

Without going to Snopes or elsewhere, how many people could tell you if this was parody or the campaign?



THAT is a problem.

Critical thinking is clearly a lacking skill in the US.

Losing strategy = insult "anyone with a brain" and the whole "US". Just like Brock paying trolls to insult everyone -- drive people away AND destroys credibility.

Do you know what the flag of imperial Japan looked like? And posters of Chairman Mao? Put those two together, swap Hillary for Mao and bingo!

Same for the red arrow pointing right logo -- confused and a turn-off to Dems. An obvious mistake as they admitted by creating the blue version (still points right though).

It is time for amateur hour to end -- Get rid of that agency and let's get this done correctly.

Yup that's me, hurling insults like "Brock troll" at everyone.

There is no back side to it.

1960 here we come.

I really do think her gender is plus. Not her best strength but a strength because it really would be a step forward to have the first female President.

In my mind I like to think that a world run by women would be a more peaceful place. What I witnessed from a stage full of women in NE changed my mind. Power corrupts. Women that I once respected appauled me by their loss of temper and forced corruption.

My vote goes to the person who offers respect for the people and the system. This translates into respect around the globe and the possibility of peace.

Have an awesome day!

Inane identity politics at its worst...but it's how their heads work.

Hey! I have a vagina, too...and I don't have a record of lying, warmongering, and legal bribe-taking. Dang it, I should have run for president!

She should focus on education. Far too many are clearly being left behind.

Latin! Lends a certain gravitas.

Are you sure you would like to apply that phrase to Hillary? We can go there if you like.

The Clinton Campaign with every advantage in name recognition, media access, DNC support, DWS support and having run 3 presidential campaigns has failed to put away a candidate with limited media access and the DNC working against him.

part of the "why" there is Sanders has run the best ads of the 2016 campaign as confirmed by independent ad biz polls:

for example who won Nevada? who won Washington? see what I mean. So I'm not going to guess what number the Hillary Bros here want to see there, but since it is such a distraction I will change it to "X".

The ad agency or amateurs who created Hillary's red right arrow logo, the Chairman Mao poster, the "Love trumps hate" line and that weak 'Trump cashed in on the crash' ad should be replaced with more effective professionals. That is my goal post.

Clinton won NV, Bernie won Washington. The NY Times, AP, Real Clear Politics, Politico, Washington Post, Bloomberg, all show the delegate counts and the results, and if you want more details you can go to the websites of the Secretaries of State offices in the various states. If you bother to check reliable news sources rather than what random people say on social media, you can get clear answers to certain basic questions.

no? Didn't think so but I tried and btw, whoever is doing her ads is ineffective. Let's get a team that can get this thing done.

It's amazing how some people have to be dragged, kicking and screaming ... to be forced to tell the truth. You do realize that she has won more of the last 25 contests than she has lost ... don't you?

As to her ads, Secretary Clinton has beaten Sanders, she's polling better than tRump (though we all know how unreliable polls this far out are) ... her ad people can't be doing that badly.

The ads are clearly not official, but I rather like them.

..I see variations of that guy every day. Pretty decent eye candy!

There's a section of the city called Shoreditch, and they have the beard and moustache look cornered.

Clinton has not called anyone sexist for not supporting her, and unlike another candidate she hasn't systematically insulted everyone who doesn't support her or criticizes her in anyway. She hasn't denounced AIDS activists and abortion rights activists, or civil rights icons as "establishment." She hasn't dismissed the votes of the most loyal Democratic voting demographic as just the "Confederacy" or not "smart enough." She has t proclaimed her supporters inherently superior to her opponents and suggested that their votes are therefore more worthy. She has specifically and repeatedly said that people shouldn't vote for her because she's a woman but because of her qualifications and policy positions. She has spoken favorably of the enthusiasm of the young people supporting Sanders, and has many times says she thinks it is fantastic that he has inspired young women and men to participate in politics.

There are groups of male supporters who have created slogans such as those you see above, Bros for Her, etc... There are a number of different groups. I'm sorry it upsets you to see men excited about supporting someone who may well be the first woman president in history. While being a woman isn't a principle reason to support Clinton, the US does need to have women included in the presidency, just like it mattered that we finally had a black person as president. For little girls and AA children to see those role models makes a huge difference in what they imagine is possible.

Now I get that some white men feel uncomfortable with the increasing diversity of American society. I get they don't like hearing about the concerns of the majority, something they dismiss as "identity politics." I know some prefer women, people of color and the rest of the non-white male majority would keep quiet about issues particular to them rather than allowing white men to dominate the terms of political discussion. But the fact is other people exist in this country and as much as you want Democrats to ignore them and focus exclusively on you--because you imagine what you care about is universal and the concerns of the rest of society are mere "identity politics," the fact is that isn't going to happen. The Dem Party is comprised overwhelmingly of women and people of color. That means Democrats are going to speak to their concerns, regardless of how meaningless you think they are.

Clinton was never a financial consultant. That claim is totally false and frankly bizarre.

Then the key point you miss is that Clinton's focus has not been on ads. Unlike her opponent for the nomination, she has placed the lions share of resources on organizing. She has discussed lots of issues. She does every time she speaks, and she also has extensive policy discussions on her website. But she also--like ALL DEMOCRATS--makes direct appeals to the various constituent groups that make up the party: women, African Americans, LGBT, union members, Latinos, seniors, etc.... I'm sorry you feel threatened by the images above. You could just avoid looking at them and instead focus on issues, like her foreign policy speech yesterday. That you chose to focus on the glossy images is about you, not her.

a straight person can claim that's not offensive, but it's offensive and she has yet to make proper amends for it. I'm sick of the bullshit where straight Clinton supporters hide behind LGBT while defending historic revisionism that serves Republicans at the expense of LGBT.
Hillary said Reagan was the first AIDS activist. The truth is that the LGBT community was organized years in advance of Reagan even saying the word AIDS and our activists were targeting Donald Trump among others while the rest of the country ignored us, Hillary obviously did not pay any attention, she spent the intervening years legitimizing Trump by attending his events and socializing with him. Now she claims the protests never happened, Reagan was the only brave activist, and her cohort is perfectly fine with that.

What if Hillary and other Democrats had heeded the protests aimed at Trump in the 80's? Would he still be here today? What good are warnings to those who ignore all warnings coming from minority voices? To those who start their history when Reagan says it started?

I'm so sick of this.

how your view toward her has changed completely since this primary started. You argued the exact opposite, in defense of her, before you became a Sanders supporter. In saw you do it on multiple occasions. But now that she had the nerve to defeat Bernie, you attack me based on some errant comment Clinton made months ago.

Clinton made a mistake about Nancy Reagan and apologized right away. Bernie blew off meetings with HIV activists, and when he finally did meet with them lied about their position on a CA ballot initiative. When members of that group pointed them out, he trashed them as being "establishment" and in the pockets of big Pharma, like everyone who dares to disagree with him. So by all means, you keep following Bernie, just don't ever expect him to listen to you and don't you dare disagree with him on anything, or you're under the bus, along with virtually ever other activist and civil rights leader in America. The criteria is not what they do for a cause or the people, but whether they pledge allegiance to Bernie.

That said, your post has absolutely nothing to do with the OP or my response, other than you're pissed off that I had the nerve to mention HIV/AIDs, and you've somehow decided I have no right to talk about because I'm not a gay man, like no one else has any right to think about the issue. The world is full of HIV+ people, most of them straight and a hell of a lot of them women.

You can rage against me and the rest of the 13 million Democratic majority who supported Clinton all you want. I won't be paying attention because my purpose in life is not to serve as a reciprocal for your anger, particularly when you show that even the issues most central to you are infinitely flexible in order to promote Bernie's career.

I certainly would love to vote for a woman for president one day.

This isn't official Hillary material. There was a huge thread on this a couple weeks ago. The guy in second photo is a model on royalty free photo stock sites. The meme was made by Hillary Twitter supporters.

I know you said "parody" in your text but needed to headline that so people who don't bother to read and only see the pics don't jump the shark

and I have so many on ignore now that I miss some threads entirely.

After the red right arrow logo, lovetrumpshate and the Chairman Mao poster I could easily believe that "man enuff 2 to vote 4 Hillary" was done by the same people.

And yes, note to self: if you are going to put big pictures in an OP don't expect people to read much.
