Well Bernie supporters have been consistently trying to shit on the convention.  Their latest scheme:



The DNC has been installing white noise machines to drown out the boos so now they plan on wearing glow in the dark T-Shirts and changing the signs to "liar"

https://twitter.com/TheBradMielke/status/758820748811116546?lang=en

Overall it wasn't as bad as the 1968 convention but it was hardly the unity event people wanted it to be.

what the fuck is wrong with these people. I'm gonna assume that letter doesn't reflect most of the Sanders people in the area, or the delegates. I had read most of the delegates plan on walking out during her speech. Fine.

I have a feeling it won't simply be a walk out and instead they'll crash the speech somehow.

Congressional Record--Appendix, pp. A34-A35
January 10, 1963

Current Communist Goals

EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

Thursday, January 10, 1963

Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.

At Mrs. Nordman's request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following "Current Communist Goals," which she identifies as an excerpt from "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen:
Quote
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

18. Gain control of all student newspapers.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."


27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a "religious crutch."

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."

29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."

31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture."

The one thing Hillary has always trumped Bernie on throughout this year is her supporters are unified, purposeful or not. There aren't multiple in-groups and infighting.

With Bernie, you have people that support him but know or recognize how this process or game is played. Then there's the people that cry out for a revolution like they're expecting the Bernster to show up with a armed militia and demand that this country is healed ASAP.

OH!

Was a nice convention after the initial Bernie fans shitting the bed.

As always my opinion is Hillary is probably going to win the election, but never count out the stupidity of people to make the absolute wrong choice, i.e. Bush being elected twice.

I switched my preference to mail in voting a few weeks ago so I don't have to actually go down to the polling place.

I mean its always possible and its always going to be relatively close with it being Florida. There are plenty of "angry" white people in Florida. I live in one of the swing counties although it's been drifting more democratic in recent elections.

I'm not really the biggest fan of Hillary(don't hate her or think she shouldn't be president either, mind you) but I really hate the narrative of there being two bad candidates you don't want to vote for. Nah, one is a boring centrist who'll just be OK at best while the other is an insult to the entire system for getting this far. There's no lesser of two evils here, there's one horrifying outcome while the other is just a typical politician. Go typical.

It's always been hip to pretend you are above politics and present a giant douche versus turd sandwich scenario. It's why political talk rarely rises above sports talk.

In reality, the choice is between your friend's mom that's overbearing, actively distrusts her arab neighbors next door, and throws out backhanded compliments. Versus your friend's dad who tells his son he can't bring brown people over, wants to fuck his daughter and her friends, and constantly moves from mansion to mansion to commit more fraud.

My prediction:

Biggest turnout in history
That would be 82% of voting age population, we haven't gone over 60% since 1968. Above 62% since 1908.

We're going to have to really crack down on the darkies, women and 18-21 year olds voting to get that number back up for this year.

If you mean raw numbers, that's sorta like Trump's whole "most primary votes ever" boast, there's more people than ever.

I really hate the narrative of there being two bad candidates you don't want to vote for
In reality, the choice is between
with the choice being between two
I reject your False Sophie's Choice. [presents alternative but equally false choice...am I doing this right Barack?]

Quote
Donald Trump has found an ingenious way to save the Democratic Party. Basically, he’s abandoned the great patriotic themes that used to fire up the G.O.P. and he’s allowed the Democrats to seize that ground. If you visited the two conventions this year you would have come away thinking that the Democrats are the more patriotic of the two parties — and the more culturally conservative.

Trump has abandoned the Judeo-Christian aspirations that have always represented America’s highest moral ideals: toward love, charity, humility, goodness, faith, temperance and gentleness.
Quote
Trump has abandoned the basic modesty code that has always ennobled the American middle class: Don’t brag, don’t let your life be defined by gilded luxuries.

He left the ground open for the Democrats to seize middle-class values with one quick passage in a Tim Kaine video — about a guy who goes to the same church where he was married, who taught carpentry as a Christian missionary in Honduras, who has lived in the same house for the last 24 years.
Quote
Trump has allowed the Democrats to mask their deep problems. A Democratic administration has presided over a time of growing world chaos, growing violence and growing anger. But the Democrats seem positively organized and orderly compared to Candidate Chaos on the other side.

The Sanders people have 90 percent of the Democratic Party’s passion and 95 percent of the ideas. Most Sanders people are kind- and open-hearted, but there is a core that is corrupted by moral preening, an uncompromising absolutism and a paranoid unwillingness to play by the rules of civic life.

But the extremist fringe that threatens to take over the Democratic Party seems less menacing than the lunatic fringe that has already taken over the Republican one.

This week I left the arena here each night burning with indignation at Mike Pence. I almost don’t blame Trump. He is a morally untethered, spiritually vacuous man who appears haunted by multiple personality disorders. It is the “sane” and “reasonable” Republicans who deserve the shame — the ones who stood silently by, or worse, while Donald Trump gave away their party’s sacred inheritance.


Quote
The Democratic speakers hit doubles, triples and home runs. But the normal rules may no longer apply. The Democrats may have just dominated a game we are no longer playing.
If the Democrats can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes should fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

In actuality, this is the most clearcut example of things being fucked up beyond all recognition, with the choice being between two such utter human colostomy bags of failure, who have little to no actual daylight between them (no matter what platitudes they currently spout to covet votes) and no actual principles whatsoever beyond their own lust for power.

There is no honesty and no integrity in either one of them.

There has never been a stronger narrative for giving the fuck up and being above it all, because as a human being one should be better than actively supporting either of those two candidates.  Telling someone you actually support either should mark you for deletion from the gene pool lest your stupidity spread.

Trump is an awful racist tyrant demagogue. But at least he presents a real face to what Republicanism has become/is since the civil rights era. At least the distinction is clear. You can't pretend anymore. In that sense its probably the most honest election we've ever had.
