These Bernie supporters who hate Clinton must have no context or no concept of what the Clinton's have done for the party.

This is viewed as part of the problem. Who cares about party politics? Many. Even many independents... but not millennials by my estimation. Party politics are the problem. Hillary supporters tying her to helping the Democratic party is a negative, not a sell.

That's ironic since Bernie would have likely increased partisan grid lock with his left focus vs hillary who wants to build a larger tent.

Bernie would have crushed Trump in the general.

I'm about ready to drive to the convention and lay down!

LOL if Hillary loses the general election to Donald freaking Trump

Obama is a the perfect example of what voting change for the sake of change gets you. He didn't transform Washington like his young supporters thought he would. Hell he knew within weeks he wouldn't be able to deliver on most of his platform. 

Had they given him a dem congress things would be different.

A wise man may pursue practicality and try to play the game even though it feels dirty. A righteous man may pursue his views on propriety and attempt to change the game even though it's unlikely to work. Who is the nobler?

Perhaps true. That's not a message people will buy, however.

The popularity of the sentiment of change from Obama was underestimated, imo. Bernie represented it. Hillary, however, is a return to professional politicians. That's not popular even if the ticket's policies would be centrist.

Looks like it.  It seems DNC was more worried about Hillary's turn rather than the mood of the base.

If those are illegal aliens up on stage, they should be arrested along with Hillary.

They probably are. Pretty scary huh? I bet she stole someone's job too.
