Tim Kaine will be her veep. White male, late 50s, gov and senator from swing state Virginia, AND he speaks Spanish!

Well, I'm sure if Trump is the candidate, he'll throw EVERYTHING at Hillary. We should get used to Bill & Monica being thrown around in the same sentence in a few months.

How can you not blame Bernie and his team for such conspiracy theories. They literally talked about overthrow the will of the dem voters, are constantly making up excuses for their losses ("the poor don't vote so I'm losing") because they claim having the higher moral ground and thus feel entitled to claim every win.
I don't disagree with most of his views, but this behavior is unhealthy for a democracy.

Nope.

Anyways, anyone with the time and interest, came across a lengthy piece criticising Bernie: https://medium.com/@robinalperstein/...699#.5rgzawkui

this was such a good read with so many valid points. I loved this snippet

It is one thing to keep his campaign alive to the end to get the message out, but it’s another when the campaign pretends that progressive goals can be attained by him alone, without Congressional support, or by young people simply showing up at his rallies. It’s also another thing when Sanders insinuates that Democrats are the ones impeding progressive goals, rather than doing what they can in the face of lockstep GOP opposition. He’s willing to shout the shout, but not walk the walk, and he doesn’t seem to be doing a thing to translate the enthusiasm he’s generated into anything but more money for his campaign and hatred for Hillary. In fact he actively works to undermine confidence and trust in the Democratic party and Clinton, its likely nominee — knowing full well that the more his attacks take root in the minds of his supporters or the broader electorate, the more difficult it will be to unite the party and win in the general — ultimately hindering the prospect of electing a Democrat for president and of winning more Senate and Congressional seats.

What's she doing?

I'm almost a civil engineer, and from what I can tell 9/11 is completely possible. It's not a situation most buildings are prepared for, much less buildings as high as those were. However, the loads were unbalanced and there was a lot of unstability. If there is any conspiracy it's got more to do with the terrorist and the hijackings. But when it comes to the buildings falling due to the event that happened, it's possible.

Agree. The Green Party platform here takes an admittedly simple position on a complex issue, and should be improved.

I agree that just because something’s untested - as much of the world of alternative medicine is - doesn't mean it's safe. But by the same token, being "tested" and "reviewed" by agencies directly tied to big pharma and the chemical industry is problematic as well. There's no shortage of snake oil being sold there. Ultimately, we need research and licensing establishments that are protected from corrupting conflicts of interest. And their purview should not be limited by arbitrary definitions of what is "natural".

"All of these credited things are kind of silly," says Scott Goodstein, the 42-year-old CEO of Revolution Messaging, the politically progressive digital media agency that powers Sanders’s social media campaign. Goodstein credits the success of Sanders’s social media strategy to the candidate himself.

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders’s top adviser said on Saturday that the campaign would consider dialing down its criticism of front-runner Hillary Clinton depending on the outcome of the primaries on Tuesday.

Tad Devine was asked in an interview with NPR if Sanders would ever consider toning down his harsh attacks on Clinton.

"If we think we've made enough progress, then we'll keep on the path that we're on," he said, referring to Tuesday's string of primaries. "If we think we have to, you know, take a different way or reevaluate, you know, we'll do it then."

Devine added that "right now, we think the best path beyond is the one we laid out months ago."
