U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez nominated Bernie Sanders on Tuesday in a convention speech that honored him for organizing “a historic grassroots campaign to reclaim our democracy.”

AOC trashes Obama's fundamental change promises....says we need Bernie b/c
"..... millions of people are looking for deep systemic solutions ........"

Obama in 2016 saying HE'D bring fundamental change.

[mrsmith]

LOL! It meant nothing.

She said just what the DNC told her to say. Just what the DNC, her masters, wanted.

[funfan]

Is bernie going to be on the ballot still?

[nickcarraway]

Well, it shows her party she isn’t a team player.
<P.And it’s an insult to black voters. They firmly rejected Sanders.

[mrsmith]

No.

AOC, as the DNC demanded of her, has made that impossible.

[Oshkalaboomboom]

They probably knew in advance that AOC wasn’t going to endorse Biden, which is why they only gave her 60 seconds.

[caww]

Sounds to me like AOC let the cat out of the bag indirectly. Will be interesting at the end of this video production who will be actually named to officially accept the nomination.
Rules do change on the table they have set and seats change.

[mrsmith]

You’re ‘reaching’.
The DNC has it all under control- and the media behind them all the way.

AOC does just what they want.

[conservative98]

Oh no is @AOC attacking the Press for inaccurate reporting?

Now she knows what it’s like to be President Trump every single day. https://t.co/E3RX6MJsGk— Benny (@bennyjohnson) August 19, 2020

You waited several hours to correct your obvious and blatantly misleading tweet.

It sparked an enormous amount of hatred and vitriol, & now the misinfo you created is circulating on other networks.

All to generate hate-clicks from a pre-recorded, routine procedural motion. https://t.co/crDlEymgMD— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) August 19, 2020

Since the goal of the Democratic National Convention is to ‘officially nominate a candidate’for president and vice president,....and since many of the original candidates simply ‘suspended’ their campaigns, (still on te ballot) Joe could bow out and give his delegates to anyone he wanted to. Likely Kamala unless there's a dark horse hiding in the background.

I say this because in the set up of speakers Joe's not positioned with anyone, yet Obama will stand with Kamala for VP....He's off at the end standing alone? Additionally Joe's video speaking with people, like Hanks, isn't addressing polices he's just rattling off and reminiscing about the days with Obama.

At any rate don't be surprised if this worm of a convention doesn't turn a whole lot.

[P.O.E.]

This is why after the revolution, most revolutionaries are eliminated - they can’t be trusted to fall in line.

[P.O.E.]

Or is it one of those “loyal opposition” situations, where they pretend to have differences of opinion for show.

Something is about to happen in the dem party. That is why AOC voted for Sanders. I bet Biden will be out and since Sanders has a second he will become the nominee. Found this article. https://www.lucianne.com/2020/08/19/something_is_not_right_says_obamasbrwhite_house_doctor_about_biden_hes_just_lost_41458.html

‘Something is not right’ says Obama’s
White House doctor about Biden, ‘He’s just lost’Dr. Ronny Jackson, the former White House physician to Presidents Obama and Trump is speaking out about his impression of Joe Biden’s physical and mental fitness for office. “The best way I can describe every time I see him is that he’s just lost,” Jackson said. “I won’t make any particular diagnosis about dementia ... but what I will say is that something is not right,” continued the doctor, who just won a GOP congressional primary in Texas. Asked whether he’s comfortable with the idea of Biden assuming the top executive position in the country, Jackson said, “I’m not.”

[VanDeKoik]

I swear the clownish “they are going to switch Biden with...” posts are just getting tiresome at this point.

[mrsmith]

Feel just the same.
But Biden is such a pathetic pick that I don’t wonder that people wonder.

[Dr.Deth]

I’m not sure dementia is not a ploy to deflect from the creepiness, deceit, corruption, sexual predation, nepotism and treason.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

I have to say one thing for her supporters: It’s impossible to insult their intelligence.

The Democrats keep saying Democracy... I thought it was this:

US Constitution - Article IV - Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence.

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

...I don't see "democracy" in there...
