This is a blowout of epic proportions.
This is not a close race.
This will not require a contested convention.

same as hillary did in 2008.....I don't want to think sanders isn't a classy person like hillary was in 2008....but so far, he hasn't shown it with the nomination out of reach...and still attacking.....
america with trump would be at the hands of sanders.....would he be that vindictive? I know some of supporters would.....as their ego literally trumps the well being of America
