And I'm beyond sick and tired of the green/naderite/communists coming in and bashing Democrats, not to mention abusing the jury system to the point where Skinner had to step in to get them to stop.

Greens are no more Democrats than Republicans are. If you campaign against us, leave.

He defended their outlawing of freedom of the press. He said bread lines are a sign of economic health. He is relentlessly hostile to businesses, imagining that large government takeovers are going to work.

Yeah. "Democratic socialist" my ass.

more and more of our Constitutional rights away. Corporations are becoming more and more powerful. Every year the wealth gap widens as the middle and working classes and the poor sink farther while the corporations gain more and more power. As we've seen our election system is one of the worst of all modern countries. Massive voter disenfranchisement and actual voter fraud is common place. Recent studies had concluded that the lower 99% do not effect the workings of our government.

Now some authoritarian followers are very comfortable with this arrangement as the poor get poorer and vote to maintain the status quo with corporate power running the government. They would be Tories, comfortable with the rule of the British Aristocracy and the East India Company, the world's first corporation.

Scoff all you want but we have 2.5 million homeless children and things are not looking up as we face a dominance of capitalist corporations that care nothing about the homeless children.

And what sucks even more is the Clinton supporters' obvious intention to benefit from this CRIME, as they have done all over this country, in state after state, where voters have been denied the right to vote, ALWAYS IN CLINTON'S FAVOR!

Every exit poll anomaly, every voter purged from the voting rolls without their knowledge or consent, every closed polling place, every delayed voting result, every mysteriously changed total, every fucking lie where super-delegates are added to pledged delegates, and every bit of vote suppression shit we've seen in this primary HAS FAVORED CLINTON!

And the smug, nasty Clinton toadies who pollute this site LOVE it! They LOVE vote suppression! They LOVE a rigged system!

THEY suck! Their candidate sucks! And this bullshit of California registrars DISOBEYING THE LAW--registrars who damn well ARE part the Clinton-Democratic STATE corporate machine--need to be thrown out of office!

But I DON'T BELIEVE that most Clinton supporters--real Clinton supporters--would approve of vote suppression if they knew about it.

I'm talking about Clintonbots HERE.

Real Clinton supporters like Erin Bilbray's father, who tore up his ballot and left the NV convention because it was SO UNFAIR to Bernie supporters, are the kind of Democratic Clinton supporters whose "hearts and minds" belong in the Democratic Party. They don't tolerate vote suppression! And the more they see it, the more votes Clinton is going to lose from her demographically narrow base (half the Democratic Party in a country where Independents are now 40+% of the electorate).

Those that vote for Goldman-Sachs/Clinton are willing to see the poverty numbers grow along with Corp Profits. Shame.
