Clinton passed the number of delegates needed for the nomination. The primaries are over! And what primaries they were. Best primary season is an age or more. I can't imagine how the general election could possibly be more entertaining.


WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton clinched the Democratic presidential nomination Monday night with timely help from Democratic Party insiders, shattering a glass ceiling to become the first woman in American history to top a major party ticket.

I think someone forgot to give Bernie the memo...he's still "assessing the situation"...

We were talking several weeks ago about how many of the Republican candidates were acting like clowns. I think Bernie has done really well in this regard and needs to be recognized as the token Democratic clown in this election process.

Clinton does not have 2,383 delegates. Super delegates votes aren't counted until the Democratic Convention. Hillary Clinton does not have the requisite amount of delegates to clinch the nomination. Hillary Clinton is not the nominee and the primary is still on. This is just a pathetic move on MSM's part.

Do Bernie and his minions still believe they have a chance or do they just not feel like going home yet? I've heard that he is "changing the Democrat Party" with his staying in the race this long by pushing it towards his issues, but do you think it'll stay that far left when he isn't a problem anymore? Or do you think it'll go right back to where it was when Hillary is trying to pick up the more right leaning on the fence folks in the General Election? Did Bernie Sanders really accomplish anything here?

Perfect End to Democratic Primary: Anonymous Super-Delegates Declare Winner Through Media (https://theintercept.com/2016/06/07/perfect-end-to-democratic-primary-anonymous-super-delegates-declare-winner-through-media/)

Last night, Associated Press – on a day when nobody voted – surprised everyone (https://twitter.com/AP/status/739975278483656705) by abruptly declaring (http://bigstory.ap.org/779b7012af24446289623a968926ec04) the Democratic Party primary over and Hillary Clinton the victor. The decree, issued the night before the California primary in which polls show Clinton and Bernie Sanders in a very close race, was based on the media organization’s survey of “super-delegates”: the Democratic Party’s 720 insiders, corporate donors and officials whose votes for the presidential nominee count the same as the actually elected delegates. AP claims that super-delegates who had not previously announced their intentions privately told AP reporters that they intend to vote for Clinton, bringing her over the threshold. AP is concealing the identify of the decisive super-delegates who said this.

What are you ranting about? There were primaries over the weekend- including on Sunday. It's not shocking that they made the call Monday.

And the delegate math is clear. There is no way for Sanders- who is over 3 million votes behind, to win. Hence the term "Presumptive Nominee'

This is the perfect symbolic ending to the Democratic Party primary. The nomination is consecrated by a media organization, on a day when nobody voted, based on secret discussions with anonymous establishment insiders and donors whose identity the media organization – incredibly – conceals. The decisive edifice of super-delegates is itself anti-democratic and inherently corrupt: designed to prevent actual voters from making choices that the party establishment dislikes. But for a party run by insiders and funded by corporate interests, it’s only fitting that their nomination process ends with such an ignominious, awkward and undemocratic sputter.

Literally what I just said. We've known this for some time. Monday was the inevitable point in time when it was able to be called.

And while you all circle jerk your way around reality, she is not only the person with the most delegates (pledged and otherwise), she is the person with the most popular vote- by over 3 million votes.

The Dems don't do winner takes all. It's all by proportion- which is why it's impossible for him to win. He would have to win over 90% of every state today to go anywhere.

So she is the winner by every single metric- including the most democratic ones.

There are no criminal charges against Hillary Clinton. I'd spend a little more time reminding yourself of that.

Trump is being sued in three different cases right now. So you're right, they're charges of civil fraud, racketeering, elder abuse, and other illegal business practices. Because god knows that's no big deal.

One in one of those instances, it's the damn State of New York that's suing him. The other two are class action law suits in the Federal courts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_University#New_York_v._Trump_Entrepreneur_In itiative_LLC). And there are more investigations going on regarding corruption charges (http://www.salon.com/2016/06/03/trump_university_scandal_beginning_to_look_more_li ke_corruption_trump_made_political_donations_to_at torneys_general_who_quietly_dropped_investigations/) because of some really suspiciously timed donations to AGs who abruptly dropped their investigations and reports from at least one regulator in Texas who was told to stop investigating Trump for no clear reason. (http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2016/06/05/3784897/trump-university-texas-investigation/)

So while you all spin yourselves in circles utterly convinced that HRC is unfit to be President because she's going to be indicted on Federal charges any day now (for Bengh- erm, no wait, it's emails now, right?), Trump is actually on trial facing some serious charges.

But of course, if there's no jail time attached, it's not that serious.

And once again- she has the popular vote. She's winning by 3 million votes. And that's going to be higher tonight.

She's winning by every single metric. (http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/hillary-clinton-clinches-democratic-nomination-according-to-ap/)

So no, I don't support segregation, and no there's nothing undemocratic going on here.

It astounds me the lengths you people will go to in order to invent problems. I have yet to hear a single one of you cite any of her actual policy stances. Nor Trump's for that matter.

It's almost like you know that if you had to engage with her as a candidate, instead of a caricature of conspiracy theories fueled by "anonymous sources and reports", and Trump as an actual candidate- this would be a lost cause.

She's going to win. And you'll tell yourselves for years to come that it was all some shadowy puppet figure pulling political strings and overlooked her "vast indiscretions" , but deep down inside you'll know what the rest of us know: she won because she was the best candidate in the race.

We don't do popular vote, we vote for delegates, those super delegates were not voted on by the people, they were selected by a party, parties have 0 rights to do so.

You support Hillary, she supported segregation, I.E. you support segregation.

I think you're confusing her with Donald Trump. See, unlike Trump, Clinton actually did a lot for national security as a very successful Secretary of State. There is literally no concrete evidence that she put our national security at risk.

But here are some great pieces of information citing the way Trump is a threat to national security:

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/usa-today-trump-a-threat-to-national-security/article/2577888 USA Today' Editorial Board

Time Magazine (http://time.com/4329338/donald-trump-radical-islam-commission/) talking about his Radial Islam Commission idea and the threat it poses to security

Former Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta (http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-primaries/274375-panetta-trump-and-cruz-dangerous-to-national-security)pointing out that Trump is dangerous for our national security based on the things he is saying to win

The Economist Intelligence Unit (https://gfs.eiu.com/Archive.aspx?archiveType=globalrisk)warning that his stances on Mexico, China, and Muslim Countries could all lead to international crises

Some Republican Security Experts (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/donald-trump-america-safe-experts-warn-article-1.2552121) basically saying the same thing

Trump has already damaged our international reputation and has already started inciting militant reactions to his words. And he's doing it just to win an election.

So actually the thing you're worried about- is coming from the other side

But, of course, you won't read those articles. You won't consider those facts. Because this isn't actually about who poses a bigger risk to national security (because a Secretary of State vs a race baiting businessman who has suggested that Japan get nuclear weapons, that we ban Muslims from entering the country, that we build a wall to keep Mexican rapists out, that trade with China is destroying us, and that a Judge of Hispanic Heritage has no right to judge him because of it- meaning that only a white judge is allowed is a fucking obvious choice on the national security front).

And it's not about someone being on trial not being fit for office (because Trump is the only one who is on trial right now)

If it were actually about these things- it's not Clinton you'd be bashing in these threads.

This is about you not wanting that liberal democratic woman to win.

At least you're finally bringing up something of policy relevance. Believe it or not- my primary concerns over HRC are related to some of her actions as Secretary of State. But there has never been a SoS who hasn't been hugely concerning- because they end up in crappiest positions having to deal with the most unwinnable situations. Remember- the Secretary of State doesn't have their own agenda. They enact the agenda of the President. Here's a great thought piece (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/was-hillary-clinton-a-good-secretary-of-state/2014/05/30/16daf9c0-e5d4-11e3-a86b-362fd5443d19_story.html)on the parts of what she did that were truly her personal touch, which points out that she will likely be regarded by historians as significantly better than your average Secretary of State.

Now that we're actually talking about this candidate's policies- here's (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/06/07/what-hillary-clinton-would-do-to-america/) a great starting point for her domestic agenda.

And here's (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/05/04/a-simple-guide-to-what-donald-trump-wants-to-do-to-america/)Trump's. Though the Washington Post goes to great lengths to explain that he has a less well developed agenda than any presidential candidate in recent history, and that what does exist is extremely vague and contradictory. And largely poorly thought out.

They don't select delegates for the General Election. They select them for THEIR PRIMARIES. The Republican and Democratic Primary are not Government related. They are Party events.

Party Primary Delegates ARE NOT General Election Delegates. Super Delegates for the Democrats are perfectly legitimate, because that Party decided that is one of the things that helps them select THEIR Candidate for President.
