Well times up Hillary

[Divinity]

I find it funny people think Hillary can't win, but Bernie could. Bernie can't even beat Hillary. She's got 56% of the popular vote in the primaries so far. Bernie sure as hell won't appeal to moderates or Republicans.

That's easy: The General Election is not a closed Democratic Party primary. Surely you want the candidate that does better with independents. Hilary really only wins closed Democratic primaries. There's a reason Sanders wins open primaries.

The only reason Bernie has barely lagged behind Hillary is because the establishment is working against him. Pretty sure republicans like some of his policies too, if the media would cover him properly. Even fighting against the system, he is right behind the favorite to win. That's saying something.

^^^This and even the fact is there is also voter fraud to take into account there is even evidence posted up on youtube. 
There was more bernie voters at this one area then there was for hillary. In the end the person handling the votes because
they were doing a show of hands said that Hillary's side won. So take that into account with new york and other areas that
want Hillary to win.

Yeah, I love how even allegedly "reluctant" Hillary supporters trot out that "56% of the popular vote" bullshit as if it were actually the truth.


Sure, maybe 56% of the people who were ALLOWED to vote have voted for Hillary so far, but what about all those registered democrats (mostly in demographics similar to mine) who were mysteriously mis-registered as Independent or Republican? What about the ones who didn't get to vote because of long lines or other obstructions?


If you look at who is polling to win in November, the REAL will of the people is quite clear: Bernie is by far the most electable candidate, as he's projected to beat Trump by a much more comfortable margin than Hillary (who isn't really projected to beat him at all). That "56%" isn't reflective of the will of the people, it's reflective of the fact that Hillary is a vote thief and an enemy of democracy. Odious though Trump may be, I'm pretty sure he more or less earned his delegates by convincing people to vote for his disgusting ass. I haven't heard much of anything to the contrary, anyway.

Republicans liking a socialist?  Have you met any Republicans?  To them Socialism is basically a synonym for Communism, which itself is a synonym for Atheist, Satanist, Child-Murderer, and Rapist.  Keep in mind that Hillary has been in the public eye since her husband was elected President.  Bernie?  Not so much.  Once the Republicans start their attack ads against him--he won't be polling as well.  Especially when they paint him as a self-identified socialist.  Not to mention looking at many of his past writings and actions.  And they'll take it there, you can be sure they will.   His entire life will be under a microscope, as will his wife and her ties to the now defunct Burlington College.  I've already seen some Republicans make that charge.  

Yeah, Bernie's had some unfair coverage.  But he's also been the benefactor of much of his past not being uncovered.  Which certainly won't be the case if he were to face off with Trump.

The general election numbers also reflect the idea that Bernie is still in the race.

Before all the GOP clowns dropped out, Trump was losing head to head general election polls by 10-20 points against both Dem candidates.

Now that there's no one else left, he gained all the #NeverTrump people that looked at a liberal candidate and sobered up.

That's going to happen on the other side when the Dems choose the candidate. When either Bernie or Hillary is officially out, the numbers will change, hopefully dramatically.

Going forward into the general election i see that well even before then Hillary will have to drop out no questions asked seeing more damning evidence against her
there is no reason for her now to even be in the race at all. Considering all that came out against her not to mention to the people she hired to talk nice about her on the internet
then news bias and emails etc. The fact being she asked for money and even called up bush backers and never kept her word and flip flopped on several issues there is no 
reason for her to keep running at all. The fact being Hillary is the product of the dying 2 party system she runs far to the right and calls herself a democrat.

Many republicans want a raise in the minimum wage, and other stuff. If you call Bernie a socialist, they may balk, but if you talk about the policies he espouses, they will likely agree with it.

I'm sure they'll cry socialist if Bernie makes the nomination, but he'll just keep hammering on the issues, getting many democrats and independants, as well as some republicans. In any case, I'm willing to give him a chance. He's the one I actually like, instead of talking about which candidate I dilike less than the other.

None of this is even a remote reflection of reality.
