OPERATION CHAOS II: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO "THE BERNIE BOONDOGGLE"

self (vanity) | 1/6/16 | struggle

[struggle]

The primaries are starting soon, and it is pretty obvious that Hillary will beat Bernie by a bit unless something substantial happens. With that in mind, let's use our talents together for a great cause - Operation Chaos II

As it becomes apparent that Bernie can't win, let's use our collective online presence to make suggestions that Bernie should form a third party/conduct a write-in campaign. Since most Bernie supporters are ignorant idealists, they may wholeheartedly accept this and the movement may coalesce. Imagine the outcome.

Process: 1. Log into news/liberal site. 2. Sound progressive and have fun with it. Don't use a sarcasm tag. Talk good things about Bernie and suggest the third party. Maybe state that the Democrats are corrupt, etc., and won't let Bernie have a chance. Suggest a "Democrat Socialist" party. 3. Make the suggestion with friends at work. Since they already know you're a conservative, talk it up from the standpoint that the Dems aren't giving Bernie a chance and you're not happy about that.

With enough people, we can get a 5-10% vote drain off of the Dems in November. Down party votes will suffer.

Also, vote your RINO out this primary!

Actually, if Trump has it wrapped up mid-March, just vote for Bernie in the open primaries....

Haha, Electric Boogaloo, best sequel subtitle ever!

Next time we can have Operation Chaos III: Beyond Thunderdome!

Sounds like what the Lefties do.

They put their talking points out on Huffington Post, Moveon.crap and Newsweak.

Somehow it works for them. Maybe it can work for us.

I am not betting on Mrs. Bill to be the Democrat nominee any more. I’ve got some input from Gainesville. My old bud who is a biology prof and reflects the mood among the faculty and derivatively among the SAs and the students thinks Mr. Sanders is an interesting candidate and sincere in his socialism. The socialism is really what matters at UF and probably in most of academia. I got a sense that Mrs. Bill was out of the loop around the time of Iowa in 2008 because everyone down there was dissing, gently but dissing, Mrs. Clinton. This time they do not even mention her. Sanders is their guy. That UF antenna has brought in good signals for the last several cycles as to who the Democrats are going to vote for. Even Mr. Dean was shrugged off in his time.

Yeah, but there are two big problems - the Hillary older female Democrat voter and the fact that Sanders really hasn’t done anything to win the vote by attacking Hillary. Even if Sanders wins a state or two, I don’t think he can win more than half.

I don’t have any problem with him winning the Dem nod though. Less people will vote for him in the general than they will for Hillary.

Hillary will offer the VP to Bernie. The DNC can’t let its religious base break off.

>>Hillary will offer the VP to Bernie. The DNC can’t let its religious base break off.

I doubt that. The DNC needs a minority for the next 4 years (I doubt Hill will last 4). Julian Castro, Cory Booker, someone like that who is young.

You can’t vote for another party if you are registered Republican.

I suggest anyone not planning to vote for Trump to follow this advice :)

Fewer people.
