One thing has become very clear in the past few weeks, Bernie Sanders has ceased being a grownup, and is now acting like a 5-year old child. Example #1, Bernie, and his followers have railed against super delegates, calling them unfair and undemocratic. Why?? Because most of them have gone to Hillary, leaving Bernie out in the cold. Now, he is trying to steal those delegates from Hillary. I wonder if Bernie would be screaming like he is, if he had Hillary’s super delegates?? Somehow I doubt it. If Sanders is looking to complain, then he should look no further than his own campaign manager Tad Devine, who set up this little system in the first place. Also why should those super delegates go to a man who only joined the Democratic party to run for president, and has really not lifted a finger to help the party?
Example #2 Barring some miracle, Hillary is going to get the Democratic nomination, so why is Bernie setting up “conditions” for Hillary to meet before throwing his support behind her? She has said that she will make most of his conditions a priority when she becomes president. So let’s call this what it is, BLACKMAIL!! You are some 700 delegates down at present, so you are in no position to dictate conditions to Hillary. When she is the nominee, she will set her own course.
Example #3 Now Bernie wants more debates!!! What, like the first dozen or so weren’t enough?? The last thing anyone needs are more debates because nothing is going to be said that hasn’t already been covered. I think both have already agreed to a debate, but in my mind, it’s totally useless.
Bernie, it’s time to put the big boy pants back on and act like a grown up. This whining coming from you and your staff and others is just plain stupid.
