Sanders loses convention leverage
- Thread starter GzUp
- Start date
I honestly think he had a better shot of getting more concessions by suspending his campaign this past weekend. Continuing to stick around is just going to diminish his cache with Clinton and the Dems. And considering the convention schedule is basically run based on the will of the nominee it is likely Bernie won't even get a primetime speaking slot if he doesn't come around to endorsing Hillary.
They could schedule the roll call vote for very early on the first day...Clinton would win because she has more support, there would be no second roll call vote and then the Party would just ignore Bernie for the rest of the convention.

Never saw it coming.
His fault
They already know that they'll be challenged. Old blood getting yanked out.

ive blamed his loss on the democrats' stupid base several times. i have no problem admitting he lost the popular vote. its not even "admitting", its just the facts
but there was an insane amount of bias, pre-bought superdelegates, and typical clinton cheating. that cant be denied either
frankly thats not the type of thing i take pride in voting for. actually if you think about it, its the polar opposite of what trump ran with his campaign 
Idiot Clinton Stans, Sanders doesn't owe you a thing. Meaning, he doesn't have to endorse Clinton if he doesn't want to. To be honest, why would he? She didn't meet her promises with the debate schedule and other things. I'm telling you, it's worse than Paul stans 
none of that stopped the people from voting for sanders, its just the simple fact that more people support hillaryive blamed his loss on the democrats' stupid base several times. i have no problem admitting he lost the popular vote. its not even "admitting", its just the facts
