Nope.
I get his news letter and I did not receive such an email.
I donāt really think this is about the lack of funding. I agree with others whoāve posted that this is more a practical move to say good bye to staff he no longer needs in post primary states as well as recognizing that he will not have future jobs for them since he will not be the nominee.
Iāve always said that Iāll support whomever the Dems nominate although I would prefer Clinton because of her familiarity with foreign policy matters. I can live with her many warts.
However Sanders is becoming a real turn off of late. Like another person posted I too am a cranky old white man. But other than the occasional troll here on the boards Iām not known for speaking ill of other people. And Iām especially concerned that Bernie is starting to say things that could keep people away from the polls this November.
Not what we need this cycle.

May will see Indiana, followed by Guam, then followed by West Virginia, then Kentucky and Oregon.
Indiana polling is quite close, with Hillary having a slight lead, West Virginia hasnāt been polled since March, but showed Hillary with a pretty big lead (but Feb showed Bernie with a lead, so its pretty much up in the air), Kentucky also hasnāt really been polled, but its pretty favorable terrain for the Clintons and is a closed primary, Oregon has shown Hillary anywhere from a comfortable lead to a very tiny lead, but hasnāt been polled in about a month; generally speaking it should be a pretty favorable electorate for Bernie though.
So, Indiana is a toss up, WV nobody knows, Kentucky leans Hillary, and Oregon is either a toss up or leaning slightly Hillary. Ohā¦and Guam doesnāt count per Tim Robins rules. Bernie probably wonāt get humiliated, but its very likely that each contest will now take a slight lean towards Hillary based on the blowouts last night and in NY. But not much of a lean, as I think the electorate is pretty solidified at this point. Oregon probably has the greatest chance of embarrassing Bernieā¦its a very progressive state, but is leaning slightly towards Hillary. A loss there really hurts any story Bernie is spinning going into CA.

He worked a number of jobs, including filmmaker and freelance writer, psychiatric aide, and teaching low-income children through Head Start, while his interest in politics grew.
During the Vietnam War, Sanders had applied for conscientious objector status. Although his status was eventually rejected, by then he was too old to be drafted.

Nope what? If you are going to the trouble to respond to a post, at least put enough words in it to make it understandable.

That really wasnāt why I asked the poster that question. The CA primary is still a long way off and there are still other states left to vote to vote that Hillary could/should win. Iām wondering what kinda pitch he is making in fundraising or if he is still soliciting funds.

He was born here three days ago. Hasnāt acquired a vocabulary yet.
āNoā is usually one of the first words out of the mouths of babes.

So for many many years he did a bunch of random jobs getting paid little to nothing and couldnāt hold a steady job until he won being a mayor by 10 votes. I had a more stable job then he did until he was in his 40ās while in High School

Three to one, thereby proving his thesis that money determines political outcomes is quite wrong.

And he found his ācallingā when he became a politician. And accomplished what, exactly, that made him a force on the political scene?
Bernie. Bernie. Bernie.
Money for nothinā and chicks for free
Not quite, but moving in that direction. Heās been in good company.
Bernie sticking around in order to influence the direction of the Democratic electoral platform is maybe a good idea in the abstractāthere must be pressure from the left, because god knows thereās plenty from the right. But in practice, the following problem arises: what concrete policy proposal can he suggest? He runs into one of his most basic problems, which is that, practically and ideologically, his thinking is paper-thin. Not only has Bernie never articulated what legislative action ought to be taken, but he has never articulated a detailed vision about classic left-wing or progressive concerns: (1) the role of trade unions; (2) the role of the state v the private sector; (3) the regulation of trade and industry, in particular the future of U.S. manufacturing in a globalized economy; (4) the reform of the Affordable Care Act, etc. I mean, we understand what his values are, and in fact Hillary and her supporters share 90% of them. But what exactly would he have President HRC do?

I actually recall a post where he wrote three entire sentences 
Thatās more than Clarence Thomas and Calvin Coolidge combined!

Bwahahahaā¦one of those pieces where you can tell the author just from the headline (although Salon does seem to have quite a few of those types). Josh mentioned āpeak Salonā a while ago, but I think we all know there is no such thing - they keep finding new batshittery.
