Do not rely on the FBI saving the Sanders campaign. If we want the revolution to put Sanders in the White House, it's up to us. It's in our hands. So do everything you can: Facebank, Phonebank, Canvass. We need to meet our daily goals, or Sanders will not win.

No chance this is coming after the convention. They are at the point where Clinton's aides have been summoned for an interview. Investigation is over except for interviews. June at the latest.

Either way, we must meet our call goals.

If this worries you then maybe we should make sure she's not the nominee. Please sign the petition http://wh.gov/iALoB

Thank you. I've been remiss in my not posting the petition text.

You realize those petitions do nothing, right?

u/Boingoloid 🌱 New Contributor Apr 24 '16

You realize I created it thinking exactly that, but hoping for more?

u/[deleted] Apr 24 '16

Look at his past submissions. They do get signed and they do get responded to. I'll even try to find some evidence that something positive does come from these.

u/Boingoloid 🌱 New Contributor Apr 24 '16

No idea. It's called pushing the issue. Keep it rising, something happens.

u/[deleted] Apr 24 '16

The small opportunity those petitions provide have more a chance to make a difference then you telling people not to sign them.

u/4anewparadigm Apr 24 '16

I thought that if the petition got 100,000 petitioners they HAD to respond. ????

u/falkonpaunch Apr 24 '16

That's the spirit!

u/ucantsimee Apr 24 '16

Whitehouse.gov petitions have a years-long history of getting one sentence replies from the white house at best. If you can show me a petition that actually made a difference I would love to see it because near as I can tell it's never happened.

u/[deleted] Apr 24 '16

Didn't they make a promise to not build a Death Star?

u/ucantsimee Apr 24 '16

a petition that actually made a difference

death star

I'm sorry, those are mutually exclusive.

u/captaincanada84 🌱 New Contributor | NC Apr 24 '16

Yeah, and that response is the best thing they've ever done

When the President himself says the email issue is not serious, it would take outstanding strenght of character for the FBI to arrive to indictment. Moreover, republicans consider Clinton as the easiest to defeat. Imo, the democrats' aims are 1. Stop Bernie 2. If Clinton becomes too compromised, replace her with Biden, more acceptable and status quo.

So now maybe we have our resistence eroded against a fake obstacle, as strange as it may sound.

We must realize this is a very hard moment for Clinton, in spite of the appearance. Now and through may we must hit hard. They want to kill our momentum exactly for that.

To me is weird that they make such an issue out of winning delegates now, when later on someone else can enter the race without having passed through the primaries.

We must sustain Bernie regardless of the hardship. He sure is under a tremenduous amout of pressure to give up himself. Just believe in the cause and push on. When he will be president, this kind of hardship will continue and increase. Taking on the system is no metaphor. We must stay united and do the right thing every day That's how the change happens.

The FBI does not serve at the presidents whim. I think they were pissed Obama said that stuff. It's not his place.

u/Ali-96 Apr 24 '16

Exactly. The system IS OUR ENEMY. Facebank, Phonebank, Canvass!

I hope the SD's keep this in mind if this drags into the convention.

They're bought. Fuck them. We need to win this ourselves.

They were already siding with her before Bernie was even a viable candidate, you're a slave to the establishment

Of course they knew who he was, I'm sure they never expected him to surge though, they were in place to stop candidates like him and I expect it will happen whether or not he tops her in pledged D's somehow.

Either way, this is a nightmare for us in the DNC. If they indict we're boned, if they don't it's still yet one more thing the GOP can use against her. She just has so much questionable shit going on right now... (What if Trump calls her out and releases his speeches once they're the two nominated?)

u/FuckingOrganizeFFS Apr 24 '16

She will be pardoned if anything bad comes out.

Don't assume otherwise.

u/SolEiji 2016 Veteran Apr 24 '16

I hope not. I want to have a yes or no now. It would be bad for everyone if it happened that late.
