Bernie destroys Hillary in Washington,Alaska,Hawaii Caucuses

He's America's only hope.
 
My faith in the democratic system in the United States is slightly elevated. Althought Hillary has pulled off some shady fucking shit so far
 
Caucuses are dumb. And there is no reason for a State like Washington to have one - only reason is to limit the turnout to the hardcore, which favors the party activists ie the party fringe.
 
Irritates me when they put the superdelegates in the tally.

Yeah they are the epitome of undemocratic. Its interesting how Bernie seems to only win Caucus states but gets annihilated in open primary states, semi and closed primarys.

It's interesting because if Hillary was the one winning all the Caucus states people like @BVG would be complaining and calling it a disgrace to 'democracy'.

So why isn't he complaining now that Bernie is the one winning all these stupid Caucus states?
 
I am happy to see this, though I still think that 8 years of Hillary will happen.

Reagan trailed Carter in polls by more, as did Clinton to Bush Sr. There were certain circumstances that brought about Reagan and Clinton's eventual success, but it does go to show that things can change.:)
 
Sorry I'm a little ignorant but what do you guys mean when you say caucus States vs primary States?
 
Love him or hate him, between the little bird and the standing O at the latino debate, The Bern has had the two most magical moments of the primaries.

(excluding wife tweets of course).

Caucus states you have to show up stand for hours and then hold a dumb sign up in a packed hot room all day saying you want candidate XXX for president. Whichever candidate has more people show up and scream and yell for them wins that Caucus.

Basically If you work, have kids, or have things to do you are excluded. It's also discriminatory against many groups which can't make it out. Basically it worked well in Washington because all the young, childless, and non workING can show up aND do nothing for hours all day. So all the college kids can.

Primary states you can vote via ballot. And always ahead of time for like a 2 week time. Your vote don't matter in a caucus state.
 
So what's this mean, 3 more delegates?

Edit: 35 net delegates. Not too shabby.

Hey, if you're having a bad day go watch that vid of the Palestinian getting executed in the street by the Israeli soldier. That should lift the spirits of any right-wing, Benji Netanyahu fanboy.
