So, what you're saying is that it doesn't matter that the DNC was biased because she would have won anyway? Firstly, you can't know how much influence the DNC's shady tactics had on my he process. Secondly, that's a terrible precedent in you're setting, and you're sending the Democratic Party the message that they can undermine the democratic process as long as you're frightened enough of the other guy.
Look, I am not one of those die hard Bernie or Bust supporters, and Hillary supporters need to get over the delusion that this has anything to do with whiny people not getting their way. It has the do with the Democratic Party nominating a shit candidate that will perpetuate the rigged system in Washington that allows the elitists and 1% to run roughshod over the rest of us. People keep saying, "You have to vote for Clinton because Trump," but all I hear is "Sell your integrity and vote for the person that will screw you over slightly less." Well, I refuse to play this game of the lesser of two evils.
And before you all have a coronary, just know that my state will go to Clinon regardless.
