"Indeed, you seem to believe that 'DEMOCRACY' means the minority can dictate terms to the majority."
No. Progressives should have proportional representation at the convention and not be preempted out of it! That's DEMOCRACY.
Here's another example:
"You apparently are willing to claim 'DEMOCRACY' is a backroom deal to get by prearrangement a number of delegates whose views you share which is in excess of what can be carried by counting ballots."
Anyone saying that Bernie should drop out is in favor of decreasing the progressive vote share to be DISPROPORTIONAL, not in excess at all! But instead LESS THAN what it out to be in free and fair elections!
Additionally, you attack me by saying it is because "whose views (I) share." No, actually I do NOT share all of Bernie's views and am somewhere in the middle of Biden and Bernie.
But the pure and unadulterated unfairness of the attacks on Bernie and unsubstantiated nonsense, including in some of your posts, has me on edge.
I support DEMOCRACY and OBJECTIVITY, not smears and unfairness. Progressives deserve a fair seat at the table, neither excess nor undercutting them.
Go DEMOCRACY!

primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
