Discussion: Sanders: Democratic Convention Could Get 'Messy'

Bernieā€¦

Everyday of your congressional life has been the slow, quiet snooze of a backbencherā€¦

Itā€™s gotten messy lately because youā€™re an incompetent national campaginer whoā€™s mouth has been writing checks your hypothetical administration could never cash.

Once again instead of trying to tone down his supporters he is making excuses for them.

"Democracy is messy. Everyday my life is messy," he said. "But if you want everything to be quiet and orderly and allow, you know, just things to proceed without vigorous debate, that is not what democracy is about."

I would prefer a Fabian approach, because the alternative that you are preaching could approach a disastrous end. However you do you Bernieā€¦you do you.

More threats isnā€™t what we need. Give it up Bernie, give it up already!

Vigorous debate, good. Holding your breath and stamping your feet when you donā€™t get your way, bad.

More than making excuses, I suspect. It sounds like heā€™s issuing the ā€œGoā€ code for the messiness to proceed.

Heā€™s out of control, playing into the GOP hands. He didnā€™t get the votes to be the nominee. Hillary did. TOUGH!

Thatā€™s life too.

Beat me to it. Opportunist user who knew he wouldnā€™t win in an independent run , so he rides on the back of Democrats

How about Democracy being the person who gets more votes
Clinton 12,989,134 Sanders 9,957,889 Clinton +3,031,245

You know whatā€™s going to be messy? Bernieā€™s 2018 Senate race if he keeps down this path.

ā€œWhatā€™s the big deal about that, other than itā€™s exciting?ā€ Kasich continued. ā€œThink about how much education our kids are going to get, about the way in which we pick a president. ā€¦I think it will be very cool.ā€

Sanders told the AP on Monday that working on the Democratic party platform will be an ā€œexcellent time to educate the American people.ā€

ā€œThere are two sides to every issue and Iā€™m sure that Secretary Clinton will have very vigorous proponents of her point of view, as we will have,ā€ he said.

Hmmmā€¦I wonder what he means by messy. Heā€™s going to have 5 of the 15 people on the platform committee. His people can vigorously argue their viewpoint, then they vote and it is what it is. He makes it sound like heā€™s going to disrupt things to make the platform what he wants, as if he doesnā€™t realize that we just had 6 months of primaries and he lost.

I couldnā€™t agree more . If he tries to run as an independent again we should join forces to see that he never sees the light of the Senate chambers again except as a visitor
