I have zero respect for Bernie at this point. A sore loser who deserves no place in Democratic leadership nor in the White House.
I thoroughly hope that DNC and HRC can agree on the fact that he should be paid dust.
The DNC has already caved in. He'll get to appoint 5 out of the 15 party platform committee. Before then, he and Hillary (will appoint 6) wouldn't have had a say so they both will come out with greater influence. DNC chairwoman Debbie will appoint 4.

So this is the first step towards unification.
He doesn't deserve a say in a party that he doesn't even belong to.
We're talking about former VP, 41st president, raised all the taxes, Bush Sr. Not Great Recession starter, 43rd president, forgot Louisiana/Mississippi were states during Katrina, Bush Jr.
I think Truman was an excellent president. He ended ww2 and his internationalist foreign policy approach is practiced to this day, and he pushed some civil rights legislation. I didn't know he was a businessman though
Yeah it was surprising to know he was a businessman. I didn't know that. But yes he was a cute president
The Democrats (country as a whole really) did not know where it was headed or wanted to be. Jimmy Carter was ahead of his time. He may have been a good president in 2016. Bernie is basically Carter 2.0

God...
45% of Democrats agree with him and voted for him. So he (well his supporters) do have a say. This is great. Campaign finance reform and wall street reform is an issue that the Democrats will have in their platform going forward. Everything else is Hillary's platform.
Kinda annoying telling my friend the hard truth that Bernie selling point of him being the best candidate against Trump according to GE match-up polls don't really matter. I'm just waiting for a "crooked Hillary's" response rn

He been running on the Party ticket and amass millions of voters (our voices matter), representational say in party's platform like this is good.
Lmao his supporters couldn't even show up on time and find parking for a DP meeting in LV

Thank God for SB!
Maybe clear your head a little, see that Bernie supporters aren't just the ones sending death threats to DWC and look at the recent general election poll match ups and realize that every vote may count this election and telling a primary candidate with 44% of the democratic vote to buzz off along with all his supporters isn't going to give the edge the Democrats need against Trump
Um it's clear in the South where Bill won big that Bush was hampered by Perot, a Southern independent and most independents tend to be conservative leaning
Bush would've knocked his wig off . Not that I'm sad about the outcome but yeah...lol

We're not all the crazy Bernie Bots wildin' out there. Many of us are considering voting for Hillary. And the party must do it best to diminish the number of "#BernieOrBust" guys to dust.

I thought Bernie fans were about the Bernie or Bust movement where either:
* They magically win as a write-in (bc Bernie Math)
* They help elect Trump as a way of showing the DNC and punish marginalized people who can't afford to throw their vote away (bc privilege)
