    No, he is saying the Hillary supporters voted for Obama. Unlike the Sanders supporters not voting for Hillary.

    He didn't keep campaigning after he was eliminated. He endorsed Hillary after the California primary, even though the party leaders had done everything underhanded they could to deny him the nomination.

    Hillary, meanwhile, dropped out only a few days before the convention in 2008.

    Sanders campaigned for Hillary! He shouldn't have, after the way the party treated him, but he did.

    Give it up. Nobody hosed Hillary. All the hosing was done on her behalf. Yet she lost to the most unpopular presidential candidate in history. That's what happens when you try to CROWN a president instead of letting people elect one.

    I wasn't arguing Clinton/Sanders. I was explaining what he meant when he said "They voted for Obama, not McCain". You seemed to think he was talking about Sanders voters, I clarified it was about Clinton voters in 08.
    That's all.
    My views on why Hillary was not elected are not about Sanders supporters. It's about a complicit media, voter suppression, Russian interference and Comey.

    In 2008, Obama told Biden he could be either vice president or secretary of state. Biden chose the vice presidency, and Obama then named Hillary as his secretary of state.

    What did Hillary gain by putting TIM KAINE on her ticket? Nothing. Not one vote. The day after the election, everybody forgot about him. She could have chosen Sanders and helped herself, but no. She thought she had the presidency in the bag, so who needed Sanders, right?

    Clinton won Virginia. Kaine is the Senator from Virginia. 2+2

    I wasn't talking about politicians, just everyday people. And not just games but entertainment in general, music, tv, movies etc

    I think that obsession with Hillary or Sanders is a sign of instability and immaturity in anyone I interact with.

    People on the internet complaining about stuff being too violent, too sexual etc was usually linked to conservative viewers, but a lot of non conservative viewers started to kinda crossover with the former in regards to criticism.

    It's still there with political commentators and celebrities, especially on social media.

    Failed presidential candidates usually don't get much media coverage. And if you've failed twice, you don't get any at all. That is, unless you're Hillary. Then every day the news is filled with whatever you think.

    The media's agenda is obvious. They're pushing her again in 2020, and they're going to starve all other candidates for attention.

    Obsession with praising them as the second coming or with tearing them down as the aborted lovechild of Noah Cross and Wormtongue?
