Back in 2008, The Young Turks were hailing Obama when he became the presumptive nominee.

The Young Turks agreed with the rest of the media and hailed Obama for crossing that line. They even titled their video as Obama wins the nomination. In this vid they berate Hillary for not dropping out of the race at this point. She did drop out a few days later and endorsed Obama. All this was before the DNC in 2008.

Now in 2012 the same guy from The Young Turks is berating the media because they plan to call Clinton the presumptive nominee after the June 7 primaries. At this point Hillary will have a a majority with her combined delegates and pledged super-delegates. Remember when Obama reached this point, Cenk said it was all over, called Obama the winner and berated Clinton for not dropping out immediately. Now he has completely flip-flopped when Sanders finds himself in the same situation as Clinton was in 2008. LMAO at the hyprocrisy when he complains about CNN planning to do the exact same thing (anointing a candidate as the presumptive nominee) that he did with Obama in 2008. Welp!

Cenk is guilty of sexism because he is holding Hillary to a standard that he never applied to Obama or other previous male Democratic presumptive nominees. Specifically he is saying she needs to clinch a majority without superdelegates before the DNC when this was never required of previous male presumptive nominees.

Nice find.

Isn't BuzzFeed banned/blacklisted from any official Trump event anyways? Good for them, anyways, even if I highly dislike how they've been operating throughout this election.

Trump does not have a diverse following, and his favorability numbers are plummeting with non-whites.

Obama will say something on the terms of "In 2008 Hillary threw her full support behind me and guess what, now it's our turn to put her in the white house--where she belongs." "She cracked that highest glass ceiling and she will be the next president of the United States."

That my friends will be iconic.

Interesting

I seriously doubt Trump gets 15% of either the Latino or African-American vote. Probably more around 10%. For every one POC that wants to be a contrarian and support him, there's probably 10 times more that find his numerous statements on race and ethnicity worrisome.

Will Trump even have the support of Cubans after he inferred that Ted Cruz's father killed JFK?

Well Cubans will most certainly not vote Hillary is large numbers . They might break for Gary Johnson though!

But when HRC does this, you call her a flop flopper/liar.

Policy? What's policy about wanting Obama to be considered the presumptive nominee (against Hillary) but not wanting Hillary to be called the presumptive nominee under the same conditions?

It just seems like he'll say or do anything to rag on her.

I don't think the two of them on the ticket would be a good idea tbh. It would alienate any chance that a male vice president would have at catering male voters...

He could've just stopped liking that system. Who knows, things have changed since 2008.

We don't know the reason but even if it's because he doesn't like Hillary that doesn't make him sexist

The media is all over the "Obama Will Endorse Hillary" train. More and more articles from big websites popping up.

Bernard, you better bid your farewells.

President Obama better not endorse anyone until the convention

I do not see how the Sanders' campaign and its supporters can make a valid case on a contested convention when Hillary wins on all fronts - popular vote, pledged and super-delegates. If anyone is chosen other than Clinton, wouldn't that be going against the will of the people? Bernie should bow out gracefully. I'd like to see the Sanders, Obamas & Bidens plan an event where they all endorse Clinton.

Yes, but Bernie's supporters are still blinded by the social media illusion that Bernie is the most desired candidate by Americans. Because Bernie is significantly more popular than the other candidates on social spaces, his followers are skewed into thinking that he must also be the most desired candidate out in the real world but that is simply not true.

A majority of Democrats support Hillary over Bernie and that is that. Many of them will say Bernie would be winning the popular vote if it weren't for "voter suppression" but it seems very unlikely that over 3 million votes were suppressed over the primaries.

???

The only thing that changed from 2008 until 2016 was that in 2008 she lost the nomination (with super delegates included) and he had no problem calling the race over and criticizing her for wanting to stay in it. In 2016 she happened to win but has a problem with the media counting super delegates and is highly defensive over anyone telling Bernie to drop out.

The reasons he uses now for saying the media shouldn't call the race is "super delegates don't count until the convention". Well guess what, in 2008 the super delegates also didn't vote at this time in June.

He's a hypocrite and clearly hates Hillary. He's not sexist though I don't believe that one bit

[HeyMr.DJ]

Anyway, predictions for tomorrow?? Mine are:

New Jersey: Hillary +20
California: Bernie +2
New Mexica: Hillary +10
North & South Dakota: Bernie+25
Montana: Bernie +15
