Isn’t that cute. ValJar’s sock puppet wanting to play senior statesman.
A Barry, Bern, Hellary and a teleprompter beer summit.

Good idea. We can therefore be certain they’ll hate and despise each other forever.

LOL. Broker a peace is pure BS. Obama is going to give Bernie the message ala a Mafia don. Get out of the race before the convention and support Hillaryor else.
Yeah, he'll tell Bernie "Don't call my bluff!"
