    From the same Yahoo News story as before:

    The first pro-Sanders demonstration, held Sunday, attracted 1,000 people, making it far larger than any of the protest marches last week in Cleveland.

    "Rigged" is just a buzzword used for the emotional connotation. Please cite a specific example of a way in which the vote was "rigged."

    Takes a lot of people to carry those giant joints around.

    There were emails where offensive strategies were discussed. They were rejected, not implemented.

    I don't doubt that DWS gave every edge she could to the party favorite. She was the party favorite. Bernie was an upstart and not a member of the party, he didn't get that insider support. This is not uncommon.

    It's similar to referring to tax policy you don't like as "immoral."

    There are well over 1000 delegates elected as Sanders' supporters. They ought to be able to draw a crowd.

    I can kind of respect that one. If your beliefs about government and taxation come from a belief in the moral imperative to protect property rights, then it's a logical follow-up. Personally, I think that's a shitty moral system, but it is at least logically consistent.

    Hokie voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012? I wouldn't have guessed that.

    Your political philosophy is your own and I don't expect it to change. But for God's sake can you at least be funny if you're going to try and make jokes? A third-grader reading out of "Humor for Dummies" can deliver a line better than you.
