NBC Philadelphia ^ | 7/26/2016 | Brian X. McCrone

Dozens of Bernie Sanders delegates walked out of their Democratic National Convention and many promised to leave the political party in protest.

Vincent Venditti, a George delegate pledged to Sanders, said outside the Wells Fargo Center that he considers himself an independent effectively immediately.

Their protest and subsequent exodus from the Democratic Party is in line with hundreds of protesters outside the security perimeter, who said Hillary Clinton's nomination as the Democratic candidate for president would prompt them to quit the party.

If Sanders were to run as an independent or a Green in CA and NY then Trump would carry those states.

Green Party. Jill Stein has been courting them heavily, to the point of offering Sanders that party’s Presidential nomination (with Stein as VP). She’s been at the DNC, outside, rallying Sanders supporters.

No they don’t they lie and people lie with them... I truly is disgusting how none in that party stand on any principle.

In a communist system, the party chooses the leader, not the people. That’s what we have here now in the Democratic party. The entire primary election was a farce-an illusion of Representative Democracy. Hillary was chosen by the party to be the 2016 Democratic Presidential candidate all the way back in 2008. Guaranteed. Democrats are commies.

All of these people will vote for Hillary in November. Because they think Trump is Hitler, without the vaguest notion of who and what Hitler was.

And the rest of the country will vote for Donald Trump...

Honestly, Bernie and his supporters were criminally wronged.

It was all a set up.

They muted the boos many times when they re-played the tape of Wasserman-Schultz getting the cat calls at the breakfast meeting...first time I heard it, it was raucus, thereafter, not so much.

They were. Sanders was the rightful winner of the Democratic nomination and by extensive fraud in state after state she stole it from him.

It’s why I’m convinced that Sanders voters will by and large NOT be rallying to the Clinton banner.

My wife and I think we’d really enjoy having dinner with Bernie.

We would not do that with Hillary.

These BS supporters would be some of the first people shot
as counter revolutionaries if a hard core Bolshevik group ever came to power.
