Remember Hillary releasing those pics of Obama wearing that headdress? What was she implying there by releasing those pics? Maybe that the brown skinned guy with the headdress is not 'American' enough? Sounds a bit like birtherism to me.
What do you take issue with that I have posted. The DNC broke their own rules not to favour any candidate over another. Those are the rules. Hillary was given debate questions. That's obviously not something that's supposed to be happening, or am I wrong about that?

Quote:The System Isn’t ‘Rigged’ Against Sanders
Clinton’s winning because more Democrats want her to be the nominee.
Sanders was a dead man walking after the NY Primary - where Clinton crushed him - in mid-April. Clinton had a substantial lead in pledged delegates as a result of her victories and the following week crushed Sanders again in 4 of 5 races in the NE, losing only in Rhode Island. And of course the super-delegates, who were Democrats after all which Sanders was not, took due note of the fact. It was over at that point but Sanders kept going in a Quixotic ritual that perhaps he understands best? Still, I do not blame Sanders for continuing to keep the parade going. I do blame his supporters for not listening to him and supporting Clinton after he conceded. They, not Sanders, are the reason the Orange Turd is taking this country over a cliff.
That's not actually a response to any claim I've made in this thread. I did not claim that Clinton beat Sanders because the primary was rigged. I simply stated that the primary was rigged. Just because Clinton may have been able to win without the rigging, that doesn't mean it wasn't still rigged. You are responding to a completely different claim than the one I made. I don't deny that Clinton might have still won without the rigging, and to the topic of the OP, I don't deny that Trump may have colluded with Russia, so I'm not one of the people saying that I'm sure he didn't.
