Poor lady. She's human, and tired of being harassed.

Harrassing an elderly bla-low info lady for not supporting your guy and calling for reinforcements?

Can't get more Bernie Cult than that!

Seriously. You (or whoever sent this) threatened this woman. And you're surprised she didn't respond positively?

[–]dread_beard 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

Right? Whoever sent this (if the OP or otherwise) should seriously consider writing back and apologizing. This was disgraceful.

Here's a local news piece featuring Ms. Burks the attacks she has received. http://wishtv.com/2016/02/22/sanders-supporters-use-email-to-attack-indiana-super-delegates/

How is this a "very cordial request"? It's outright threatening with the whole "I've compiled a list of names so we know who was with us" garbage at the end. It's embarrassing to see people act this way.

A little background on Ms. Burks. After retiring from nursing, she became a leader in the AFL/CIO, a champion of the disabled, and a leader in civil rights. She has dedicated her entire life to service, and was honored for doing so. http://www.in.gov/legislative/bills/2005/HRESF/HC0046.html

So you harass a super delegate and expect to be treated like a saint? This response is the gloves off behavior you want Bernie to show towards Hillary but when it's used on you, it's just so mean. Maybe it's hard to understand but you don't get to win elections by threatening folks for having different opinions.

Are you guys out of your fucking minds? How do you expect someone to react after being harassed tirelessly by a ton of kids. Fuck that kid.

[–]redditwhysodistract 31ポイント32ポイント  (2子コメント)

So many of these kids are going to look back at the way they harassed and disrespected the super delegates and cringe at their younger selves.

Bernie will end up right back in Vermont as a NO-name Independent Senator. The Democrats and Republicans won't want any thing to do with him. Why would they?

Does anyone seriously think threatening these Dem officials will help Mr Sanders receive their vote? Does anyone think he will have any say at their convention.. No way in hell.

His "supporters" act like spoiled jr. high schooler's and Mr Sanders has never once called them out on bad behavior either. These man-child-brats need a good old fashioned SLAP. This is the result of the "everyone gets a trophy generation"... They are 'entitled', spoiled, undisciplined, and rotten to the core.

The bridges being burned are Mr. Sanders bridges and personally, at this point, I can't even stand the guy. He's drunk on his own Kool-Aide. Time to go Bernie.. You're team is embarrassing you and real DEMOCRATS.

So much for -Viva La' Revolution...

And FYI, the person who sent her the original message writes like a twelve-year-old. I'd be mad too if children were harassing me with barely comprehensible regurgitated nonsense, day and night.

    I'm honestly shocked that OP would have the gall and shamelessness to post this. "Check out how mad my cultish little club made this poor unsuspecting old lady!"

    [–]woohoo 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

    That's unfortunate. Seems all that power has gone to her head. I bet most of the delegates, nationwide, are like that too.

    edit: eh, I changed my mind, seems like a nice lady who has been supporting Hillary since before these kids were born, plus she worked pretty hard to get to be a delegate

    What a cunt. Is there a law against writing her calling her one?

    [–]IND_CFC 30ポイント31ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Yeah...she should respond much more positively to threats and harassment.

    I'd take the threat seriously though if I were her. If there's one thing we know Bernie voters are capable of, it's abusing older black voters. Remember when they were about hope and togetherness? Now they're just about ineffectually bullying people that don't agree with them (the vast majority of the nation).

    Why are many super delegates planning to vote against the popular vote of their constituents?

    The $hillary campaign has a $2,700 per person limit. But The Clinton Foundation has taken unlimited billions from corporations and foreign governments and made many down ticket democrats and liberal charities dependent on them for funding. Its the only reason she is "viable" this election. These donors don't do this for free though. Otherwise they would take the good karma for themselves, donate to charity directly, and make a tv ad of it. $hillary will guarantee a return on their investment at the public's expense.

    http://www.salon.com/2015/05/31/the_cash_donations_hillary_simply_has_no_answer_for_partner/

    While Clinton was secretary of state, her department approved $165 billion worth of commercial arms sales to Clinton Foundation donors.

    For example, we should be very careful with who we give military hardware to in the middle east; not trading ARMS overseas in exchange for "donations"! $hillary the supposedly anti-gun candidate.

    Here is an infographic of foreign countries donations to The Clinton Foundation including $25 million from SAUDI ARABIA which has some of the worst civil and women's rights: http://www.commonsenseevaluation.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Foreign-Country-Donations-To-The-Clinton-Foundation.jpg

    Why are many super delegates planning to vote against the popular vote of their constituents?

    Because there is no such thing. Super delegates are not intended to be representative of the population.

    [–]Used-Car-Salesman 27ポイント28ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Yup. The party knows they have a goofy lefty wing that will vote for people who can't win.

    The party ran through a series of reforms a few decades ago to make it more democratic, then they figured out a lot of their constituents are batshit and vote for kooks, so they introduced superdelegates to keep those people from costing them elections.

    What are super delegates and closed primaries for?

    [–]hansorg 26ポイント27ポイント  (32子コメント)

    For the PARTY to nominate a candidate that can WIN in the fall. It's not rocket science. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense for the Democratic Party to let independents nominate a fringe candidate (Bernie Sanders, himself a lifelong independent).

    [–]bladel 15ポイント16ポイント  (1子コメント)

    Why do we even have super delegates & closed primaries? Exhibit A: "Bernie or Bust!". Exhibit B: "Let's have a floor fight at the convention!" It's pretty clear now that a significant portion of these folks are not Democrats, and never were.

    Exhibit C: Bernists leading a coordinated effort to get Republicans to vote for Bernie in CA now that Trump already won

    It's best to not even bother. I've had run-ins with this guy as well. Look at his comment history - he just goes around posting the same copy-and-pasted responses to everything.

    Ah. Thanks for confirming that super delegates and closed primaries are designed to silence the will of the people and prop up the establishment that has the lowest approval rating in decades.

    I sincerely thank you for your help in electing President Trump.

    That is what Bernie is trying to do. He is asking Superdelegates to vote for him even though he is 290 pledged delegates and 3M votes behind Hillary.

    It seems that Bernie fans are ok with subverting the will of voters as long as the glorious leader is the beneficiary.

    Also, if super-delegates are so bad, then why did Bernie became one?

    [–]hansorg 14ポイント15ポイント  (4子コメント)

    Trump has a 67% negative rating with minorities. He's electorally doomed. But we'll revisit that on November 9th.

    Also, how is nominating Bernie "the will of the people" when he's behind by millions of popular votes and a huge chunk of pledged delegates thus far?

    [–]RedditIsMetal -3ポイント-2ポイント  (3子コメント)

    $hillary has a 62% negative rating. And its rising fast as more people learn who she really is through this lengthy primary season.

    They are following the will of the people... She WON. It's really been over since the March 15th Super Tuesday.

    He won't/can't pass her in delegates.

    Are you seriously so delusional that you think someone losing by ~3m votes and ~300 delegates has the will of the people?

    And about Trump winning, yeah we all saw how correct you were with the predictions of Bernie winning each state

    How? By posting $hillary's own record. Everything I have ever posted is 100% accurate. Literally any other democrat: Omalley, Warren, Biden would not have divided the democratic party.

    If $hillary is nominated her war record, her economic record, her lack of transparency, and her open bribery will shatter the Dems, perhaps permanently.

    How is stating $hillary's record being an ass? I have not used any conspiracy theories about her.

    The Clinton Foundation donations from corporations and foreign governments in exchange for special privileges at the public's expense are well documented and not hypothetical.
