Michelle could be Hillary's secret weapon during this GE. Her speeches are wonderful and the commencement address attacks on Trump were so classy yet so on point.
Well, there's a Gamer Gate false concern to a lot of this "it's about ethics in journalism (politics in this case)" that didn't seem to be an issue when Obama was running, when Bush was running, or when Bill was running. Hm. I don't strike it up to just coincidence.
So I was wondering if Trump might have cost them Florida and how the Cuban-Americans may affect this and someone responded:
Florida has an ever growing NON-Cuban Hispanic population. Their interests tend to fall more in line with national Hispanics politically. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hispan...nos_in_Florida

If enough of the black community in FL is to Trump's There's My African-American that can help too
This means nothing I know many African Americans and Latinos that voted for Trump during the Primary and I live in FL.. Don't be fool by the media they only show the white following of Trump and won't dare show that he has a diverse following
Gary Johnson has caught my attention with being Pro Choice, Pro LGBT, Pro minimum wage, CNN interviewed him and I fear that if the media starts giving him coverage he may take away from Hillary since his stances are Democratic..
Back in 2008, The Young Turks were hailing Obama when he became the presumptive nominee. This was the point in the nomination voting process when Obama had enough delegates and pledged super-delegates to gain a majority. 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.
Elizabeth Warren is a bit hypocritical she actually agrees with Bernie Sanders that Super Delegates shouldn't decide this primary and they should vote based on the state results she is irrevelant and needs to stay away from this election and remain in the Senate

No, she only believes they should not sway the nomination away from the person that wins the popular vote - if you've been keeping up with Bernie, that's now contrary to his viewpoint. It's also not hypocritical since she hasn't done anything or said anything that doesn't line up with what she's stated?
She would be an excellent VP choice, she will be an invaluable asset against Trump throughout the general election, and she deserves the opportunity to be even more influential than she is now.

Although I don't agree with most Libertarian economic policies, Johnson isn't a bad guy. The problem with third parties in the U.S. is they only seem to pop up on Presidential election years and seemingly do very little to grow their visibility in between. So, they are never truly viable, but can spoil some elections like in 2000 with the Green Party.

Making her a VP choice isn't worth losing a democratic Senate seat let's not forget the Governor of Massachusetts is a Republican and gets to choose a replacement if she is selected as VP
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.

Dammit. If the governor did choose a replacement, would it just be for the remainder of her term or a full, new 6 years?

He is a good candidate and I do feel if he is given a invite to debate with Trump and Hillary that may rise his relevance and than he will become a viable threat...Sanders became relevant after his 1st debate

But even in this scenario, wouldn't Hillary still be ahead?
