    The fuck are you talking about? Did you forget that nearly every centrist candidate dropped out by Super Tuesday effectively deciding the race at that point?

        Well, if you’re all for conspiring by a small group of people to decide elections, then the current president is your type of guy

          You think 3 million is a small group? You think they all met up on saturday to decide the outcome?

              “He’s not going to get involved in endorsing anyone for this nomination,” Biden told NBC’s Mike Memoli on Monday. “But I think he will make sure that, you know, the party is united at the end of the day, and as I will, whether I win or not.”

                  What’s YOUR point? Why are you so opposed to people’s votes deciding the outcomes? And don’t lazily paste a fucking 12 paragraph article again because you’ve pretty much worn your credibility down to the nub with me.

                    LoL buddy as I said Obama/DNC conspired to limit the field of candidates and effectively decidedly the election. The votes didn’t matter at that point. If you can’t understand that, I can’t help you.

                    What the hell does the length of an article matter? I pointed to a legitimate source supporting my point.

                    Buddy, you’re a fucking idiot.

              You think Obama voted over 3 Million times?

                As I said, the race was already decided after Super Tuesday. What’s the point of coming out to vote if your favored candidate has no chance of winning?

                  Well I’m sorry that you’re still upset that your candidate didn’t win, that doesn’t give you the right to defame the one who did.
