SC, GA, TN, ARK..all don't matter or don't count. YET, we're going to have a "political revolution" which will force Paul Ryan to pass Single payer.

(6,346 posts)And, since it is proportional, yss, definitely we can have a political revolution without winning southern states. But Oklahoma is southern ain't it?

(66 posts)Do you think if he had spent more on ads or spent more time there it would have affected his delegate count? No. He is not a stupid man. Some people are slow to see what is right before their eyes. He is going to states where people pay more attention to what is going on in Washington and see the NEED for change IMMEDIATELY. Go Bernie! After tonight things will be much rosier!

She takes nothing for granted, either.
It's too bad you're insulting voters in Massachusetts, Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, TN, Georgia, Virginia, and American Samoa, Iowa, Nevada, and South Carolina.. do please proceed though.

Yavin4
(35,437 posts)He's been in politics for decades, but has he built any coalitions? Has he built any alliances? The answer is no. He surrounds himself with people who agree with him 100% and never ventures out.

(27,813 posts)Those "yokels" each have one vote in the GE - same as the "sophisticated folk" in Vermont and NH.
So if Bernie ever got close to being the nominee (pause for laughter), he'd need those "yokel" votes.

NanceGreggs
(27,813 posts)... when Bernie came out as the "candidate for the People", he actually didn't mean everyone.
If you read the fine print on his website, it says:
"Revolutionaries Wanted: Residents of some states need not apply."

(90,645 posts)They keep complaining that the DNC isn't doing it for them -- you know, the evil DNC they are revolting against? That same DNC is supposed to show up at their rallies with the card tables and state registration forms. Otherwise the Sanders supporters are being repressed and oppressed and it's Hillary's fault.

The ignorance and entitlement are revolting all right.

(90,645 posts)...didn't hold them by the hand? They spend an awful lot of energy complaining that the people they are revolting against aren't helping them in their cause.
They are allegedly Democrats -- they should at least TRY to learn how the system works. Mineral Man alone has used up countless pixels trying to TEACH them how it's done, but the response is never thanks, just assertions that the Revolution has come and that magically all their dreams will come true. MM has the patience of a saint, imo, and he keeps trying.
