Or is there something behind that press conference more than what was on the surface?
I really wish some of you who are good at reading body language, facial expressions would have a look or another look at the video of Bernie's press conference yesterday afternoon. It seems to me some of them looked pretty happy about some of the things Bernie said, as though they knew a secret about what he really meant by what he is saying.
of a friend. I am close friends with some of my former high school teachers (I met them in their first year teaching...they weren't much older then, and are far less older, now.) My old civics teacher has me included on an email list, and this came through, yesterday. I thought it was worth sharing, and the writer, "Ron", said yes, go for it.
"Dem's and Independents who will not vote for Hillary"
I don't know how to do this but let's get a petition going and get over 1 million supporters to then submit to the DNC and President Obama
I am ashamed of myself for taking the bait eight years ago. I knew better but I shut that all down and got swindled again. There were those who saw him for what he is back then but I ignored them.

This has been demonstrated once more. Even Bernie was forced to play their game. He appears to have lost but illusions like that are based on lack of understanding.
I voted at 7 AM at a church down the street near my home in West Los Angeles. I had a nice, chilly walk to to the voting site. I was fifth in line. The line got long behind me.
There's a report and video up on Kossaks for Sanders about a group called Trust the Vote. They say they've been working with the FBI and have evidence of fraud, going back to 2012. Their attorney says on the video that they have the evidence, they can prove it, and that "Bernie has won."
He says they are also suing the media as "accomplices after the fact. They are covering up evidence of criminal activity. It's a crime."
Dear Superdelegate:
I am a lifelong Democrat who lives in Ohio. I have voted straight Democratic ticket for the past 35 years and have campaigned for Democrats the last three elections. For the past year I have been campaigning for Bernie Sanders.
US Uncut, is reporting that Bernie today stated that the DNC had rejected his proposed platform committee appointment of Rose Ann DeMoro, executive director of National Nurses United.
DeMoro's response was:
