How Bernie Sanders missed his chance to beat Hillary Clinton

The democratic party has had it with Bernie. The crank is going to be turned for him to drop out and shut up!
This is just the start.

How Bernie Sanders missed his chance to beat Hillary Clinton
It's a long story so read the rest here:

OAKLAND, Calif. — There was a time when Bernie Sanders, the stiff, white senator from Vermont, seemed painfully out of place in black churches. But not now at the end of the long primary trail, and not here at the Allen Temple Baptist Church.Summoning congregants last week inside a historic East Oakland sanctuary that gave rise to the civil rights movement and the Black Panther Party, Sanders spoke passionately about the plight of many blacks: Too many children are raised in poverty, too many youths can’t afford to go to college and can’t find jobs, too many adults are locked in jails.

The system is rigged against them, and he vowed to change it.The audience rose in applause and affirmation. There were hurrahs and smiles and shouts of “Amen!” At last, Sanders had convinced African Americans that he understood their story — and, at last, they seemed to understand his.Only it was too late. By the time Sanders showed up here, he had effectively lost his chance to be president. Even an unexpectedly lopsided win in Tuesday’s California primary would almost certainly not be enough to stop front-runner Hillary Clinton from clinching the Democratic nomination.


 “We hold these truths to be self-evident,”  former vice president Biden said during a campaign event in Texas on Monday. "All men and women created by — you know, you know, the thing.”

The system was not rigged.
Bernie lost.
The woman who got the most votes is winning.
Exactly as it should be.


We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.
