  26.  @TheHesseJames  Regarding, "at this stage it is more important to get exposure." Let's agree to disagree. Should Nina Turner have her own campaign to increase her exposure? Or should she be helping Bernie do anything and everything to help Sanders win like she is doing? Because I think she is doing the right thing of helping Bernie and all the same concepts apply to tulsi. I love tulsi but I'm of the firm belief that she is fucking up big time. Regarding, "They can join forces at a later stage." When do you think this will be? Because Tulsi fans seem to be under the impression that they can just share delegates or some shit. It doesn't work that way. Every delegate and vote she gets that would have been Bernie's hurts Bernie. In an election and campaign where every vote matters and we know the game isn't fair she should be helping him... not running against him. And like I've already said even if she dropped out today she arguably hurt Bernie. Every day she stays in hurts him more. Because the war has already begun and all progressives, peasants and politicians alike, should be doing everything in their power to help Sanders become our next president. Regarding, "Once he takes her on his ticket she will draw more people." Almost nobody gives a shit about the bottom half of the ticket. Far, far, far too much is made of it. And if we ever get to the point where Bernie is picking a running mate, which generally only happens after getting the nomination, then war is ALREADY won. The hard part is getting Bernie to be the nominee of the "democratic" party. The rest is just details. He can be trusted to pick a good running mate and can be trusted to crush the orange clown. The hard part is overcoming the rigged primary and tulsi is only making it harder.

  31. Val regarding, "I honestly don't know what you are talking about in NV" Sanders supporters were fucked over during the NV convention. During the convention a frustrated Sanders supporter lifted a chair over their head for about 2 seconds before gently setting it down. Maddow's reporting on the issue was all about Sanders supporter chair throwing even thou no chair was thrown. She also completely ignored the fact that Sanders supporters were taken over a barrel during the NV convention and talked about the bullshit narrative the DNC wanted them cover... about non existent chair throwers. For a little more context... my favorite part is at about 1:15 when DWS makes sure to point out that they are impartial and don't take sides. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8w5wY_wT9M Regarding, "I am not presenting my own facts." I'm not saying you are. I'm saying Maddow does... incorrectly (aka lies). Regarding, "I just said she is an Emmy Award winner which is a fact and a small part of what I base my opinion on." Ok. I personally don't care about it. I personally care about credibility and to me Maddow has none. Regarding, "I also became interested in what is going on in the country and politics because of her show." Good for you. Everyone should be interested in politics but I encourage you to get more information from sources outside the corporate media. They have an agenda and are not going to inform you properly.. Regarding, "What other "fact" did I present" Again, I'm not calling you a liar. I'm calling Maddow a liar. Regarding, "if you read my post you will see my main concern is that fact that sexual harassment is prevalent in our society and I applaud anyone who can bring it to light, corporate media, progressive media or any other." Fine. I personally find that she is tainted and just because she does something good doesn't excuse her bad. I honestly happily don't watch her anymore. I honestly wonder what her coverage about the extra 80 billion for the military has been. Clearly you watch her. Has she even talked about it? Corporate media acted like Sanders wanting to spend 53 billion per year for college education was fucking crazy so I would think that an extra 80 billion per year for bombs was at least talked about. But it wasn't was it? Hopefully I'm wrong. I just don't think so.

  33. Regarding, "MSM made out Bernie supporters look unhinged and unwilling to accept a loss." I can accept losing. I can't accept being cheated. And clearly the game was rigged up to and including the coverage by Maddow that was intentionally (at least in my opinion) biased... which doesn't make it coverage anymore but rather it is propaganda. Regarding, "I was not bitter or vengeful the way I see some Clinton followers be." I am pissed in all honesty. I want free and fair elections and don't think we get them. Then when Maddow blames me for voting for Jill Stein... well... it really rubs me the wrong way and I was already pissed. Regarding, "We just didn't have a strong candidate who people trusted with way too much baggage." By we you can't include me. I used to be a lifelong democrat but no more and consider them to be sellouts (like Maddow). I now identify with the Green party far more. That said I want Sanders to run and win as a democrat. Regarding, "I watch news outside the MSM like this channel and a few others." Good. At least you get other sources to try and put the corporate medias BS in perspective. At least you get to learn somewhere about the 80 billion extra for the military somewhere. I actually think it was covered here and it's not like he has 24 hours a day to fill. Regarding, "I used to watch the Young Turks until I noticed some discrepancies and exaggerations in their reporting and stopped watching like you did with Maddow." They are far from perfect. I actually prefer secular talk, the humanist report, and jimmy dore. I also watch TYT and a few others but not always. Forgive me for jumping on you about Maddow. I feel betrayed by her. I used to really like her. Her coverage during the election was the end of her and all corporate media for me. I really saw their coverage to be no better than FOX news but for the (corporate) left and although I think they are better about lying I see them as more sinister because everyone knows Fox is bullshit. Maddow had credibility and she used it to try and force Hillary down everyone's throat.... like the rest of the corporate media.
