It may. But not in this election. I know what will have an impact... President TRUMP!

Not going to write Bernie in. I will send him a card instead.


I had the chance to vote for Bernie. It had impact too. He is taking her into the 4th quarter and despite showing a great deal of heart, he did not win. But, like the Alamo, he will be remembered.

I never thought I would live to see the day when there were this many progressives in America. It gives me hope for the future. But right now, I fear for the present because of all the Brown Shirts.
That is the worst way to go about it.

I've not voted for a republican candidate for president since Bush in 04. That was the first presidential election I could vote in.

Since then I have been disenchanted with the Republican nominee. This year looks no different.

The problem is I'm an exception instead of the norm. Most republican leaning voters just fall in line and support the party. Fuck that.

You shouldn't either on your side. You and I might not agree on the issues but we're both being screwed by the party we favor. The democratic establishment was never going to allow Sanders to win. If you look at delegates from the vote Sanders is neck and neck with her. The only reason she is inevitable is becuase the power structure of the party is looking at you and saying 'your opinion doesn't count, you're getting Hillary.'

Super delegates... anti democraric.

They both pass off every election as 'the most important one ever.' That's a fear tactic.

Vote your conscious. The party doesn't give a fuck about me or you, why should me or you give a fuck about the party?

the only reason you think Sanders has no chance is because the media has told you this.
Not true, though I certainly do consume media. Unless they are lying about the results of the past caucuses and primaries - then I will concede the point. My understanding of mathematics has been the most important factor leading me to this conclusion.

I certainly do notice that his campaign has been pretty much blacked out by the media and that has hurt him.

I have run campaigns before. The first thing you need to do its make sure you get your candidate on the ballot. At first this means administrative shit but eventually you need to beat somebody. It is this nation's loss that Bernie's campaign failed to do the latter but the election will go on and the next POTUS's name will be on the ballot.

Still, I think he accomplished a great deal in an heroic fashion. I will miss him. I expect to see him or his ideas again the next time we do this.

Sanders gets my vote in the primary. He's going to take Oregon by a good margin. That said, given that the Democratic party allocates delegates proportional to the vote, Sanders has no chance of accumulating enough delegates to win the nomination outright.

Looking ahead, Trump has no chance of winning Oregon. So, Hillary has to win my vote, otherwise, I'll cast it as a protest via Sanders write-in or Green Party.

There is a lot of hate going on in this country, much of it directed at the current candidates. I refuse to give in to that emotion. I'll listen to both (OK, I'm done with Trump), and decide when I must.

I honestly don't care who gets in, Nothing will change until this country hits rock bottom.. Cruz, Trump, Hillary all suck and I can't cast a vote for any of them.
This was how I initially felt, until trump doubled down on his "I hate everybody but white people" routine. I can't stand Hillary, but this fucking maniac has to be stopped. So I'm not voting for Hillary so much as is I will be voting against trump. I'm using my vote to cancel out some white supremacist's vote, and as far as I'm concerned, anyone who casts a vote for that guy is included in that list.

Trump is only speaking to the racist republican base.
That's it.

I am using mine on my father in law's vote. He is not a white supremacist, just gullible. If trump were only supported by white supremacists he would not have a chance. These people are stupid and scared... and unaware of the impending danger. I seen it before - last century.

You`re a deranged person that makes lies truth by force. Vote as you will, judge as you must, but don`t lie about things.

Your hate has gotten the best of you.

Maybe the National Enquirer or TMZ should do only political media tabloid coverage since this is what seems to be what people want.
Media dictates & influences who will be in office...just ask Rand Paul. My caucus is bigger than yours lol

I'm sorry man. Anyone who listens to this guy rhetoric and watch what goes on at his rallies (which he wholeheartedly condones and even encourages) and still decides to cast a vote him, is on some level a white supremacist. Whether they are willing to admit it or not. How else can you explain it? He kicks black people out of his rallies for being black. He's basically preaching white supremacy at his rallies, and by voting for him, you're saying "I agree".
