“If I was Bernie Sanders, I would suspend the campaign,” Uygur said. “And so now Sanders supporters, before you freak out, here’s what it means. It doesn’t mean that I take all my delegates and I give them to Hillary Clinton preemptively… In this case it would be a literal suspension of the campaign. ‘I am not going to continue to run against Hillary Clinton because there aren’t any elections left other than the super delegate election at the convention. So for the moment being, I am suspending the campaign.'”

1. I'm not sure I'd want to take career advice from Cenk Uygur.

4. Why?

TYT has been a great career move. The show is very popular online with lots of listeners. Its also a quality show.

2. Cenk's a class act

Cent Uygar is smart, articulate and passionate. His TYT Network is a great part of how I get my news and the programs are intelligent and entertaining.

His passionate support for Senator Sanders was nearly palpable and this pronouncement shows his dedication to defeating the Republicans.

Well done, sir.

7. He chastized journalists for doing their jobs and calling the race...

... but he's free to give warm-up speeches at Bernie rallies. Clearly, he doesn't think the rules of journalism apply to whatever it is he does. But he is certainly not in any position to be telling journalists how to do their jobs.

3. My estimation of him just went up a notch.

8. I agree with him completely (Uygur)

Keep the delegates, suspend the campaign, see what happens.
