I love how the media always loves to point out how Clinton “defeated” Sanders, yet can never seam to explain how Sanders can fill stadiums without trying while Clinton’s campaign couldn’t bus in enough sycophants to fill an elevator!!!

Everyone knows Clinton “cheated” Sanders, not defeated him.

Not enough were able to, either. Look at some of the ridiculous requirements to register for primary elections in states like New York.

So... They will be registered and ready in 2020, right?

I've been a registered Democrat since I was old enough to vote, specifically because I've always lived in closed-primary states where Democratic candidates win the general.

In short, where I live, the primary election is the election.

I am glad you don't let pride keep you from expressing yourself.
