Wikileaks has definitely and dramatically moved the goal posts for:
- The DNC
- HRC
- the anonymous "Super Pac"
In three legal areas:
- fraud,
- election law, and
- ethics
Bernie Sanders said he will still support Hillary Clinton for president despite leaked emails that showed Democratic Party leaders privately planned to undermine his presidential campaign.
Like many of us here at Caucus99percent I am tired of being trampled on, scorned, belittled, and ultimately ignored by the so-called financial and political elites. The doom and gloom on the site is palpable. The negativity has now seemed to reach it’s peak with the big middle finger Hillary has given the progressive wing of the party in her atrocious VP pick, and we have only begun to see the results of the DNC boondoggle.

This email is folks making edits on a statement to be released - given the events of this spring, the irony is thick. Here's how the proposed release looks at this moment on April 25th:

In the beginning, this is what would happen. You would have the Democratic candidate running for something, and the Republican candidate, and historically Vermont has been a Republican state - moderately Republican, not right-wing - and the Democrats, and then we had a third party.
And what would happen is, debate after debate, television program after television program, the progressive, third party people, would in fact get the best response from the audience. And people would say, "Yeah, you guys make a lot of sense." And then you go up to them and say, "Are you going to vote for us?" And then they say, "Oh, of course we're not going to vote for you. You can't win! We're going to vote for the Democrat. You're a much better candidate - everything you're saying is true. But we can't waste our vote." "Waste our vote" was the expression. So if there's any term that drives me crazy, it's this quote unquote waste our vote.
This is a great video, he spoke to everything I've been thinking, and gives some priceless quotes from Dr. Stein.
Next move is Bernie's.
Now that the cesspool of corruption in the Democratic party is being laid bare daily, how can you support this? It is you who are the victims here. And yet it is you who made it all possible.
Long ago many of us saw it all too clearly. We did not chant
Hey!....Hey!....LBJ...How many kids did you kill today?
and then remain "loyal" to the system that killed all those people.
Well, The People's Convention went very well yesterday capped off by great speeches by Nina Turner and Jill Stein. I am typing this from my iPad at which I am not particularly adept at adding links, but if you go to this website

you should be able to view them in the live stream of the event.
This is largely to update some of the news that has happened since then.
Through much of my life, Sunday morning was the time to watch intelligent discussion of the weeks news on “Meet the Press” or “Face the Nation”. The Sunday edition of the newspaper published its most detailed stories. Today the corporate media is doing its best to distract, distort, and mislead the public in order to maximize their profits by presenting their corporate propaganda as news. I think that is why many of us are here.
