Simple suggestion: proclaim that only Democrats can be the nominee. Deem Sanders to be a socialist. End of tale.

Yes, what about that recent poll showing 75% of dems would vote for a socialist. How could they get away with robbing him again? I thought popular vote was the big deal now. Super delegates choosing a different candidate makes dems look foolish based on the hissy fit they had because Hillary won popular vote but still lost.

I wonder how soon the Bernie bros are going to realize the Dems are going to steal the convention again, so they have to go to Milwaukee to riot?

The RNC should get hundreds of buses to carry screaming moonbat radicals from every blue state rat hole out there. The city streets should be overflowing with them. Hell even give them three bag lunches every day en-route and $50 “from George Soros” when they arrive. Very cost effective.

Antifa, radical Muslims, Black Lives Matter, Black Panthers, Anarchists, etc.

I think the DNC bosses will not give Bernie the nomination. He’d drag the whole party down and they’d lose their control over the House of Reps for sure imho. We will see

When Bernie gets robbed, again, I can’t say I won’t laugh out loud when Antifa spills Leftist blood in the streets of Milwaukee...

“Some national and state Democratic party leaders concerned about Sen. Bernie Sanders’ candidacy are willing to risk a messy, brokered national convention this summer, which could be potentially damaging to the party, to prevent the self-described Democratic socialist from becoming the nominee, The New York Times reported.’

whatever ... stealing the nomination from bernie at the convention would be worse for the party than losing 47 states in the general election WITH bernie, because stealing the nomination from bernie would PERMANENTLY rupture fault lines amongst the Dem “coalition” such that there would be no Dem party afterwards ... better to lose big with bernie and still have a party rather than having no party at all ...

[Fauxahontas Warren] argued that Sanders can't change the rules, "now that he thinks there's an advantage for him."

You know, like how all of the democrats wanted to change the rules after Trump won a majority of the electoral college but Hitlary won a plurality of the popular vote.

So what’s the betting odds Bernie does “suicide” if he goes third party?
