Bernie Sanders Campaign Chief Says Someone Must Be 'Accountable' for What DNC Emails Show
ABC News ^ | 2/23/2016 | MaryAlice Parks

Posted on 07/23/2016 3:20:49 PM PDT by orchestra

Bernie Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said his team was "disappointed" by the emails from the Democratic National Committee leaked through WikiLeaks, which seemed to reveal staff in the party working to support Hillary Clinton.

"Someone does have to be held accountable," Weaver said during an interview with ABC News. "We spent 48 hours of public attention worrying about who in the [Donald] Trump campaign was going to be held responsible for the fact that some lines of Mrs. Obama's speech were taken by Mrs. Trump. Someone in the DNC needs to be held at least as accountable as the Trump campaign."

Weaver said the emails showed misconduct at the highest level of the staff within the party and that he believed there would be more emails leaked, which would "reinforce" that the party had "its fingers on the scale."

"Everybody is disappointed that much of what we felt was happening at the DNC was in fact happening, that you had in this case a clear example of the DNC taking sides and looking to place negative information into the political process.

The Bernie Sanders campaign is urging its 1,900 delegates not to miss a private meeting with him right before the start of the Democratic National Convention.

In a text to delegates Saturday, the campaign says the meeting about “continuing the political revolution” is the “most important thing you can do at the DNC.” It was obtained by The Associated Press.

Delegates are expressing concerns about the meeting’s timing. It is being held at 2 p.m. Monday miles away from the Wells Fargo Center, where the convention begins at 3 p.m. Votes on the Democratic platform and rules are planned that day.

PRAY FOR A BERNIE REVOLT. MAYBE BERNIE WILL PULL A TED. He has nothing to loose other than his integrity which has been exploited by the DNC.

Uh oh, is he going to turn his rioters loose at the convention? Maybe Bernie will end up voting for Trump.

Ted is lower then scum

Bernie is not going to pull a Ted, he didn’t ask the RNC to fund his delegate mischief campaign. Or coordinate with them regarding the delegate take over.

Ted is in his own class of sleaze and dirtbags.

Bernie should do whatever he thinks in necessary, including taking back his endorsement.

I wonder if Obammy and Hitlery knew that those emails were going to be released so they could get the Bernie endorsement before he changed his mind

“Mistakes were made, nothing we did was illegal, no prosecutor would choose to indict her for it, anyway it doesn’t rise to the level of impeachment and at this point what difference does it make?”

Get used to it if Crooked Hillary gets elected chump.

I said that a while ago. I truly could see him vote Trump in the election. He will never vote Hillary.

I’ll bet the leaker was a DNC insider sympathetic to the Bernster. He/She will be Vince Fostered once identified.
