Bernie Sanders endorses Hillary Clinton
Politico ^ | July 12, 2016 | Louis Nelson

Posted on 07/12/2016 8:33:57 AM PDT by Enchante

Bernie Sanders endorsed Hillary Clinton for president Tuesday at a rally in New Hampshire, ending a protracted Democratic primary battle in the state where the Vermont senator won his first victory. "She will be the Democratic nominee for president and I intend to do everything I can to make certain she will be the next president of the United States," Sanders said, according to prepared remarks. "I have come here to make it as clear as possible as to why I am endorsing Hillary Clinton and why she must become our next president."

The endorsement theoretically unites the Democratic Party behind Clinton, but questions remain as to how many of Sanders’ supporters will fall in line behind the former secretary of state after such a hotly-contested primary.

I agree. Two possibilities come to mind. 1. He figures she’s better than Trump. 2. He wants to stay in the good graces of the senate democrats that he caucuses with.

Phony Bernie. The Demos didn’t want any trouble at their convention i.e. ‘68 convention repeat, but I don’t think this will quiet the restless hoards.

Let’s hope the Bernie-bots go crazy and refuse to follow.....

Let's put on our progressive disguises and try to convince BernieBots to stage a massive write-in campaign!

Wonder how much she and Bill paid the old sell-out? Larry David has more principles than Bernie. At least he knows he’s just acting.

Yup, in the end, the DEMS ALWAYS come together and support the chosen one. The GOP on the other hand, not so much...

She and Lynch earlier today have the same exact talking points. Exact to the word. Imagine that.

Sanders’ campaign was always a Hillary project. Not only did it serve its purpose of tricking the media into believing that the Democrat nomination wasn’t a coronation, it also served its purpose of letting Hitlery know how far she needs to run to the Left.

I’m watching on my phone via Facebook — I’m surprised at how many “angry” reactions there are, especially now that Bernie finished and Hillary is talking.

Bernie has made sure Hillary can’t pivot back to center. She now owns the “most progressive platform” in Democrat history.

Maybe Jim Webb will step in to oppose HRC within the democratic party.

As usual, Hillary Clinton could not, and, did not fill a high school gym with her supporters. Catch the DJT rally tonight in Indiana, if ya wanna see a real political rally!!! Even having the “Bern” on stage with her did not help!!! Maybe a thousand morons showed up!!!
