    the pres WILL NOT endorse because indictments is looming around the corner

    and she doesn't have the nomination and neither will she get it with the remaining contest, only way she does have it is when you assume super delegate count. this will be contested

    The POTUS Obama can't wait to endorse Hillary. There are reports that he talked to Bernie over the weekend, presumably to tell him chill the ? out.

    This is no different than when Obama clinched over Hillary in 2008.

    I pondered if he would endorse her. I knew he wouldn't endorse her during the democratic elections but now that she's clinched the nomination I could see him doing it within 3 months. At the end of the day his endorsement helps his party and pushes his agenda of change bringing a woman in as the next president.

    At the end of the day I get the feeling Obama is someone who's conscious of how his legacy will be perceived.

    i seriously doubt ppl voting for Clinton want 'change'.

    yall listening to the same media that told yall for months Trump would NEVER become nominee, was no threat, and that suggest that Bernie would get nowhere near where he is now, and now they saying Clinton has the nomination, im saying she will not get it..once them indictments drop it's over

    I'm pretty sure she will after tomorrow. Soooo...yeah. Bernie been in Congress long enough to know how the election process goes. I don't recall Sanders giving this kinda reaction when Hillary was losing to Obama in 08'. Don't recall him saying how the system is rigged. Where was he then?

    Still lol @MSNBC the only network reporting that she's clinched the nomination. I like MSNBC, but I think they should've just waited until tomorrow. I think they kinda gun. It's like they wanna be the FIRST to announce it.

    B-b-but he'll protect your guns, the only thing you care about! So what if he's a narcissistic fascist bully with no principles that thought "assault weapon" bans were as good as gold until a year ago? He's totally pro gun now and stuff. The NRA said so, that's good enough for you right.....?
    if you think i trust Trump on guns...
    but then Clinton and Obama have started this week being colossal shitlords who won't even acknowledge the Second Amendment in turn acknowledges a right. so you know i wouldn't vote for that ? mess either.

    McConnell kept dancing around the answer of if Donald Trump remarks about the judge Mexican descent was racist or not, he kept saying I disagree with his statement but never said it was racist remark.

    Jet fuel can't melt Bernie sanders!!! Don't believe the media narrative that Hilary won the nomination tonight, We need to win every state by 40 points in order to overtake the majority of pledged delegates. And I believe he will do it cuz super duper secret sources are claiming that Hilary will be indicted TONIGHT!!! Although previous investigations couldn't pin anything on her, the fifth times the charm. Persistence is our friend!!!! it is now time for the Bernie campaign to unite the party. To all the 3 million+ people who preferred Hilary over Bernie please realize that you guys were just misinformed voters. And to the minorities who voted her over me realize she supported the CRIME BILL OF THE 90s!!! Yes Bernie voted for it to but he had legit reasons cuz there was some domestic violence stuff he liked in it! Wake up sheeple!!!

    MSNBC called it because the AP projected it so they based it off that.

    I didn't like how they made that Jeremiah Wright story relevant for 2 months straight, as theyled off every show with it.

    I also didn't appreciate how they were the only channel that partnered with the tea party to have a tea party debate, while also allowing not only a GOP response to the SOTU from Obama, but a tea party response to it as well.

    Really? Hmm, interesting.

    I think that all of them - CNN, Fox, MSNBC, ABC, etc. - are generally an embarrassment to journalism.

    CNN sucks for the most part but I do like Jake Tapper as a journalist though. He asks better questions than the rest of the fools at CNN

    It is interesting tho, the republican party got exactly what they wanted but it's the wrong candidate. If they lose this election it will take a long time for them to rebuild their party

    lol it might take even longer if they win this election
