***Official Political Discussion Thread***

What is this coin flip thing? I'm assuming it's when the votes are tied and the winner is decided by a coin toss? Either way winning all 6 coin tosses is rather suspicious to say the least.

And what's this I hear about Cruz tampering with the votes somehow? What did he do?

I'm Belgian so I'm not very familiar with the technicalities of US presidential elections.

Nothing about shady activities was mentioned on the news here

Unless he can get Obama to endorse him soon. I don't think he can do much more

He has cornel west!

Also of course the NYT doesn't want bern to win. He will tax the **** out of those people.

The NYT editorial staff endorsed her. They operate almost like a separate entity from the news staff

Cornell West is no where near the level of Barrack Obama, when it comes to endorsements.
 
6-0 on coin tosses? Who flipped it? Tim Donaghy? This fix is in.

I'd still be super worried if I was in Hillary's camp. Hillary BARELY won.  It's virtually a tie. For Bernie to even be that close from being an unknown compared to the Clinton name is amazing. And he's leading in the polls by a decent margin in New Hampshire.  But yea, he really needs that win to keep the momentum.

At best Hilary won by a small margin but at worst she lost. However, the demographics after NH are stacked in her favor. I don't think she'll worry unless Bernie makes significant inroads with minorities.

Unfortunately, if Bernie seems to be pulling ahead in March, Hillary will make sure that something happens to him. She'll pull a Kylo Ren: "Nothing will stand in our way..." That Clinton hit list about to get longer...

How did she win every single one though? Must have some next level luck

Between her connects and Bills connects, they have A LOT of juice. No need for luck. Im sure those 2 have made plenty of deals with various devils, known as politicians and corporate fat cats going back to the 80s if not earlier.
 
I was being sarcastic about cornel west. While i find him entertaining, if him and killer mike are the biggest black endorsements he isn't gonna make it

West is a very vocal obama critic too. Alot of people say it is because he was shunned and didn't get a spot at the table like al sharpton

I can see bern supporters/liberals/progressives being superrrr pissed at minorities after this cycle. They gonna be mad

As far as the Bernie campaign is concerned, there seem to be two schools of thought regarding this tie. One is that Bernie was down in single digits to start and he fought an extraordinarily formidable candidate to a standstill. The other school of through is that in a very white state, whose Democratic caucus goers tend to be far left, Bernie should have won outright.

I tend toward the second school of thought. From Wisconsin and Minnesota in the east, out west to the Dakotas and Montana and down to Kansas and Nebraska, we have the Lutheran triangle. The Democrats in this part of the Country are white, educated, largely of German and Scandinavian descent and they have been some of the most receptive Americans when it comes to socialism. Bernie cannot be satisfied with a draw in the part of the Country that gave us communist city mayors, George McGovern, NPR and The Onion.

Why would we be angry at minorities? :lol:
 
Yeah, like what reason do they even have to be upset?

Because the did "fall in line" :lol:

Most will probably even think that.

And from the one that do, I think most folk even thinking that will be smart enough to kept that to themselves.

As it would serious alienate minorities that did vote for Bernie, be such utter entitled BS, and would tarnish the progressive brand.

Wow, is that 6-0 coin toss story true or some comedy story?

Frist of all, I had no idea that's how elections were decided. Secondly, if it's true winning 6 out of 6 coin flips is suspect to say the least. She doesn't need this kind of publicity. It will only benefit Bernie in the end and make him look like a good honest guy who got screwed.
