Good. Then go vote for Jill Stein. And see how much you care about neocons when Trump is president,
Don't have to. Sanders is enough of an anti-oligarchy candidate.
Too bad he won't make it to the general. So it has to be Jill
You guys are so dumb. Of course I'm pro campaign finance reform. So is Hillary. Her speeches mean nothing. They paid Colin Powell the same after he was no longer sec of state. It's not pay to play. Fight on policy, not on smears, unless you actually prefer Pres Trump. I'm starting to think you do.
And FFS, stop accusing those who disagree with you of ignorance. I am certain I have more knowledge and education about Amerocan Politocs than you do, so it's just silly.

3/26 - "Sanders hit former Sec. of State Clinton for her super PACs and again called on her to release the transcript of her speeches to Wall Street. The Democratic candidate said that his campaign is doing well because they are listening to the American people, not special interest contributors."
3/25 - "Sanders also pleased his fans with jabs at Clinton - scolding her Wall Street-funded campaign and her vote in favor of the Iraq war in 2002"
3/25 - “Don’t let anybody tell you that Hillary Clinton is the strongest Democratic candidate to take on the Republicans. It is not true,” Sanders told the crowd at Safeco Field.
3/25 - "Sanders directly criticized Clinton, taking her to task for accepting Wall Street money via campaign contributions and in paid speeches."
Sounds like he's hitting her pretty hard.
You seem to be objecting to statements of fact, among others. That makes no sense. Are you a fan of open democracy, or do you prefer a one party, one candidate system?
Not PP, but there's a lot more than statements of fact, and I object to them. Why should she release transcripts so they can be picked apart? Great advantage to give trump and Cruz. That's a stupid move. And he claims he's listening to the American people? Bull. More of the American people are voting for Clinton.
The GOP would not criticize cozying up to wall street, because that's GOP m.o. It's the democratic voters who would be critical of it. Asking her to release the transcripts is asking her to be accountable to her voters. So your complaint is stupid. If you want all these fillers in your sausage and prefer to remain ignorant of them, by all means. But arguing no one should know because it would turn them off to her sausage is actually unconscionable politics.
The PP acts as though it's horrible and offensive to acknowledge that this country should be by, for and of the people, as opposed to being beholden to Wall Street and corporate interests. That's a big part of what's wrong with America.

You're simply wrong about this. All of the Republican candidates signed a pledge to support the ultimate nominee. They all stood there on live TV (twice!) and pledged they'd support the ultimate nominee.

The way to continue our fight now, to accomplish the goals for which we stand is to take our energy, our passion, our strength, and do all we can to help elect Barack Obama, the next president of the United States.
Today, as I suspend my campaign, I congratulate him on the victory he has won and the extraordinary race he has run. I endorse him and throw my full support behind him.
Sanders is much farther behind today than Clinton ever was in 2008. Why won't Sanders show the same respect that Clinton gave to Barack Obama ???

Yeah, she's even less popular now.
