I would hope he would continue if people keep voting for him in his state. I am not a huge fan of Sanders, but that is what people who believe in things do.


Sorry, I should have included this is satire.

Hard to laugh at those because a large % of them are Trump trolls.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Hillary is the projected winner in South Dakota, with around 51,2% of the vote to Sanders' 48,8%.

I wonder if that's the american way of being proud of winning or if you look like an ass even to Americans, I'm actually a little curious about that^^

To be expected. Its time to end this, get Sanders a part of the platform and get to the real show.

sanders will not get anything substantial platform wise, because his unique positions are mostly unworkable. most useful role for him is prob to talk about certain aspects of hillary's existing platform. stuff about helping distressed white folks etc. infrastructure advocacy maybe. he might also get some antitrust stuff, but be clear if he does discover this issue it would be clinton/obama giving this policy to him rather than the other way around.

the solution, as always, is for moderation from bernie rather than imaginary concessions from clinton.

In case anyone's interested, Politico just published an interesting piece on the last weeks of the Sanders campaign.

edit: seriously, read this (although it obviously has to be taken with more than a grain of salt).

Goodbye America.

It was nice knowing you.
The progressive VP dream team of virtue signalling will crush the bigoted mind of America once and for all.

Time to learn Mandarin and warn China of the sheer stupidity of progressives. The West has fallen.

Progressives you still haven't riddled me this.
Do we allow men to rape women in what is supposed to be their own sports? Trans men just whooping ass everywhere?
http://americanmilitarynews.com/2016/06/transgender-teen-boy-dominates-girl-track-meet-girls-rightfully-lash-out/?utm_medium=facebook&utm_campaign=alt&utm_source=asmdss

Is there a cut off point? Does a trans man have to be feminine enough to be allowed into track/basketball/soccer for women? Or if he has too manly a shape does he not apply for womans sports? These girls are pissed that a boy was allowed to compete. How do we tell them that's just the new way now?

I'd really like to see Hillary take a more moderate/leftist approach to trade and FP, in which she is definitely more in line with the Republicans than with the Dems. A lot of Bernie's more unusual ideas are interesting things to ask for but not really very good policy choices, and it's reasonable to note that while he has some good ideas and valid concerns his overall platform doesn't exactly work.

So basically, Hillary differs from Bernie mostly on the issues that most people don't really care about.
History will sooner or later sweep the European Union away without mercy.

Dominates is a bit of a stretch considering she finished 3rd in her race . Followup on your own source braah. I thought everything was backed up.

Its interesting how the domination article chose to leave that out.

Also there is nothing wrong with regulating gender specific sports.

But if the rules arent in place and the school allows it. I dont see the problem. Most transgenders as they grow older generally start trending hormone wise toward the sex they identify with so I doubt there is any sort of serious advantage in professional or college level athletics.

Unless there is evidence of a systematic problem and not isolated cases of little girls feeling cheated by someone who didn't even win because state athletics people were to lazy to regulate there are bigger problems to solve.

It is an interesting question though but easily solved by having rules in place.

Competition is not the same as basic rights. You can have lots of barriers on competition to ensure fairness and thats fine.

Might aswell complain about the blade runner while you are at it.

Trans women should absolutely not be playing in women's sports teams, in school at least. Trans women, at that age, are just dudes who feel really feminine (physically at least). I am all for cranking up trans rights whenever it makes sense, but school sports? That is just stupid.
