Clinton Endorsement Backfires as Sanders’ Supporters Look to Jill Stein

Its a steep reversal of a trend that has been building for some time.

So, why did we need the ACA again?

So, why did we need the ACA again?

To stop the trend of an increasing percent of the population being uninsured?

No, I lied. We needed the ACA to get a healthcare reform through that the Republicans wouldn't stonewall considering it was a Republican scheme.

So much for 'compromise'.

[I Push Buttons]

So, why did we need the ACA again?

So Obama could destroy the country, of course... Don't you watch Fox News? Jeeze man.

How else are we supposed to kill grandparents?

Does Jill Stein have the same policies as Bernie? I'd vote for her if she does. Also, woman president vs woman president. Either way, someone will be the first woman US president. Trump can eat a bag O dicks.

If Bernie wasn't able to get sufficient popular traction to win the DNC, what on earth makes you think Stein has a chance.

The Bernie Bros are fucking ridiculous, I swear.

A masterful scheme! Checkmate...

To be honest, the best thing to do is throw your support behind Gary Johnson. Forget clinton & trump.

Not really. Green Party gets pretty damn kooky sometimes.

[The Stormbringer]

Yeah, unless Stein has a real chance.

No third party candidate has had and will have a chance at the Presidency until one of the major parties dissolves or loses the majority of its supporters.

To be honest, the best thing to do is throw your support behind Gary Johnson. Forget clinton & trump.

And those that don't have the nomination from a major party also have no chance.

Third party votes are wasted votes. So, no.

[Azalis]

Third party candidates have no chance in a first-past-the-post political system. History has shown that in any democracy that uses first-past-the-post, two major parties always emerge. Over time those parties can change (the US has had Federalists, Democratic-Republicans and Whigs be the leading parties) but this happens when a party collapses and a new one emerges, not when a third party beats them in an election.

[Wells]

Yeah if you want to see a substantial shift in US politics your best bet is to push the friendliest party as hard as you can during the primary season and then actually show up to support them when the general rolls around. Then do it again the next cycle. Its how the Tea Party pushed the GOP so far to the right.

[Sunseeker]

Don't pin that on Huffington Post. That is all H.A. Goodman. He is such a joke that his articles were actually banned from the Sanders4President subreddit. The guy is a total nut job. Even the most hardcore of Sanders fans are embarrassed to be associated with him.

Eh, I stay away from the far ends of news media these days and it doesn't help that I just read an article on Huffpo a few days ago where a sheltered white girl who thought "not participating" in discussions about racism meant that she wasn't racist went on a rant about how once her bubble was broken, white people are now no longer allowed to call themselves colorblind.

Yeah, welcome to the real world honey.

[Xargoth6634]

Why would you want that corrupt monster to win? She is literally the most corrupt person to ever run for president.

Please share the factual information upon which this statement is based. Oh, it's literally just your opinion and complete horseshit?

[Orbitus]

Hillary and Democrats are going to run the economy into the dirt. Destroying the progressive reputation for a long time.

Too late, Republicans already have a stranglehold on that policy. Look at what they have done with the Housing bubble, Graham-Leach-Bliley Act was written and passed by Republicans.

Third party votes are wasted votes. So, no.

A vote for trump or clinton is a wasted vote. So, yeah.

[Theodarzna]

Third party votes are wasted votes. So, no.

I'm still curious why you chose as an avatar the symbol of an avowed socialist internationalist party if you are mostly an incrementalism and centrism kinda of guy.

Still a better love story than Trumplight.

[zenkai]

I'm a Bernie man. Giving your vote to Jill Stein is giving your vote to Trump. I'd rather have Hillary.

If everyone who hated Trump and Hillary gave teir vote to Stein she would win. It's amazing how people have all the power but are convinced they don't have any
