Possibly but its close enough for Hillary to be more than a little worried. This weekends NEw York vote iss massive for this race. Hillary's home state but Bernie is a proud Brooklynite. If Bernie wins in New York then the attacks on him - which have already started - will become much more intense.

This is HUGE. She is still a strong favourite and Bernie is the worlds ONLY hope of stopping this divisive corrupt war mongerer. IF she gets past Bernie, there is no way in hell trump or cruz beats her. Her lead in New York was an astonishing 48% at one stage now its around 10% , but she still leads. California is also massive, her lead is down there to 6%. The African americans must be mad to vote for this corporate lackey Clinton. Bernie is the ONLY candidate who will fight the power.

I wasnt familiar with the expression either but the logic behind it is easy for all of us to understand yet it seems the uber rich simply dont understand the concept.

'all three major news networks ignored bernie sanders’ speech tuesday night, to show empty trump podium

As Bernie Sanders took the stage on Tuesday night, the cable networks continued doing what they do best – talking.

Fox News, CNN and MSNBC all declined to carry Sanders’ speech, instead offering jokes about the evening while showing live coverage of Trumps empty podium while promising that we were all, “AWAITING TRUMP” and “STANDING BY FOR TRUMP.“

in fact: every other candidate had air time except for sanders

As if these stations couldn’t get any more corrupt, The Huffington Post’s Michael Calderone reported that the media have collectively given Trump some $2 billion worth of free air time.'

Sanders is a non event, the media know it, and hence their behaviour. Like or loathe Trump, he holds the countries (and the worlds) interest, he is an advertisers dream for ratings

Id love to hear more from Bernie. If ever the world needed someone to fight corporate power it is now. There is NO sexism in the west, that is merely a divisive tool for the elite to divide and conquer us, the ONLY war is the mega corporations against the rest, all wars, all famines, all terrorists are all created on the back of mass global corporate corruption and theft, well will humanity wake up to this?

the only logical explanation is that bernie supporters want a repeat of the 2000 election, when they said Gore was just as bad as Bush, so they voted third party(green party), and we got Bush.

Keep it up you little BernieBros, let's have a President Trump. that's clearly what you want, and you are gonna get it.

That would only be Hilary's fault for having a sketchy record and not being able to insert trust in enough voters should she lose to Trump in anyway(it won't happen).

Or maybe because Hillary is an odious lying chameleon of a politician and cant get enough votes to get over the line. The American people are showing they do not want her as president.

more utter poison from Clintons gob , this time in attempting to suck up for the jewish vote, shes again mocking dead Palestinians

Hillary attacks the dead

With the presidential race heating up ahead of the New York primary, Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton has joined right-wing proponents of Israeli violence in attacking Bernie Sanders for his criticism of Israel’s 2014 military assault on Gaza.

In an interview with the New York Daily News editorial board last week, Sanders qualified Israel’s attack on Gaza as “indiscriminate” and emphasized that “a lot of innocent people were killed who should not have been killed,” prompting feverish denunciations from Israeli government officials and their supporters.

Sanders was right. According to the UN, 2,251 Palestinians were killed in Gaza, 1,462 of whom were civilians. Another 11,000 Palestinians, including 3,436 children, were injured, nearly 10 percent of them suffering permanent disabilities.


According to Clinton insiders, the former secretary of state had planned to go after Sanders’ Israel-related remarks to court New York’s Jewish voters, who make up a significant 16 to 19 percent of New York’s Democratic primary electorate.

On Sunday morning, Clinton did just that.

Speaking to CNN’s Jake Tapper, Clinton disputed Sanders’ description of Israel’s assault on Gaza as “disproportionate.” Clinton argued that “Hamas provokes Israel.”

On top of blaming Palestinians for Israel’s deadly violence, Clinton called into question the innocence of dead Palestinian civilians, arguing, “They often pretend to have people in civilian garb, acting as though they are civilians, who are Hamas fighters.”

Maybe Clinton was referring to the 551 children Israel killed in Gaza, 68 percent of whom were under the age of 12. Or maybe she was talking about the 844 Palestinians that the Associated Press determined were killed in Israeli airstrikes on residential homes, including 19 babies and 108 preschoolers between the ages of 1 and 5.

Or perhaps she meant the 140 Palestinian families that had three or more members killed by Israel that summer.

This isn’t the first time Clinton has shamelessly attacked dead Palestinians for political gain.

In the midst of Israel’s 51-day assault, Clinton accused Hamas of “stage-managing” media coverage of the slaughter by inviting Western journalists to Gaza. She also recycled Israel’s excuses for its attacks on UN schools by alleging – without providing evidence – that Hamas was firing rockets from their grounds.

In an earlier interview with Sanders, Tapper expressed bewilderment “that the first Jew in American history to win a delegate, much less a primary” had openly criticized Israel.

“Usually in American politics, everyone just supports Israel whatever Israel wants to do, but you are taking a more critical position,” said Tapper.

Sanders interjected, “I’m taking a more balanced position.”

“Whether you’re Jewish or not Jewish, I would hope that every person in this country wants to see the misery of never-ending war and conflict ended in the Middle East,” said Sanders. “Of course the United States supports Israel, but you cannot ignore the needs of the Palestinian people in Gaza right now: poverty, unemployment, their community has been decimated.”

ANd Hillary's staff wonder why her unfavourables are so high and why she's struggling to get the win. When they announce to the nation that they're gonna deliberately lean left at the Primaries then move over to the right for the General that may be a reason why people dont find her trustworthy.
