I think you're cherry picking your 'verifiable information'.

Your constant mischaracterizations of my positions do nothing to prove your points.

I've said that I'm pushing hard to the Left, because that's the direction I believe our country needs to go- and I'm certainly far from satisfied. Are you?

I'll take whatever progress is made but it won't stop me from continuing to push for more others- especially now that we're gaining traction.

LOL

I directly quoted the leader of Sanders delegation at the table in early 2017 after they negotiated changes to the rules for Super delegates. That's not cherry picking, that's just quoting what the leader said. He communicated his satisfaction with the result. This comes as close to the truth as one can get.

When you base you belief of "rigged primary" upon a false conspiracy theory, it's inevitable that you would be dissatisfied, especially when the facts don't fit your theory. Of course you are not satisfied.

Am I dissatisfied like you are? No. I don't subscribe to your gaggle of false conspiracy theories, one of which involves a monolithic Democratic Party that is corrupt, owned by corporations and the Super Delegate rule empowered those financial elites to defeat the will of the people.

I'm satisfied that changes were made to the super delegate rules to remove the chance of elite lawmakers defeating the results of the primary election voters. That was Sanders complaint and it was addressed. Also, the Super Delegate rule in 2016 did not defeat the will of the Democratic Party voters. They chose Clinton by a whopping large margin.

get over it.

He keeps joining those words together and not realizing they don't go together.

It's a made up term, more fake news from Dog Kennel boy.

Government by the few who are wealthy

Do you disagree that America is ruled by a select few wealthy people (and/or corporations)? That we do not live under an actual Representative Republic? Or do you just buy the fairy tale version of "The American Dream"?

Have you looked them up? Care to explain how 'oligarchy' and 'plutocracy' are incompatible?

We'll be waiting.

Because plutocracy is a type of oligarchy so saying both is redundant?

Words and shit, they have defined meanings and you can't just decide they mean something else.

Example: The water was wet and moist.

Oligarchs can hold power for reasons other than wealth.

But this smacks of splitting hairs just so you can find something to argue about; the larger points stand unchallenged.

Thanks for your concession.

My concession?

I told you to stop making up words, you dumb cuck. How is that a concession?

I'm not gonna type a 2000 word essay for you to ignore off hand and then go straight back to using blatant lies to support your position.

plutocracy, is a form of oligarchy ,but we also have democratic election which means STFU because those words can not, by definition, apply to the USA
Just because you can spell it doesn't not mean you understand what it means or when to use it. This has been told to you before on another word.

The word plutocracy means a government controlled by the wealthy

The definition of an oligarchy is a form of government in which all power is vested in a few persons or in a dominant class or clique; government by the few.

There are very few people in America who control the government, they also happen to be very wealthy and very powerful

If you believe this, there is no point in wasting time trying to convince you of anything.
