Fox News projects Sanders to win Indiana Democratic primary

a reply to: Sublimecraft

The establishment must be in meltdown trying to figure out why she trails behind the Bern when she has wall street bankrolling her, MSM propaganda endorsing her and she has a vagina as her main policy platform.

As far as I know Clinton didn't even campaign in Indiana. Both Bernie and Trump came to Evansville once and Cruz went there several times. If a politician tells the voters of a state you are not worth my time they are not going to win that state no matter how much money is behind them.

The Republican Primary is winner-take-all, but I believe the Democratic is proportional. Sanders gets 43, Hilary 37.

NY Times

Didn't you guys get the memo? Sanders is tired of hearing about those emails. Why aren't Sanders supporters tired too?

Doesnt matter , as long as Hillary stays out of prison( and she will , all of this crap will be forgotten) Bernie has 0 chance. He had 0 chance at the start.He was just put up to give the "appearance" that Hillary had a legitimate candidate to run against. An illusion. But ,as long as Sanders hangs in there , the more he gets his message out. So , Sanders in turn is using the Democratic Party. Then , run as an Independent in November he may actually have a chance.

* - From Whitewater to Benghazi: A Clinton-Scandal Primer

The Clinton Foundation

What? Bill Clinton’s foundation was actually established in 1997, but after leaving the White House it became his primary vehicle for … well, everything. With projects ranging from public health to elephant-poaching protection and small-business assistance to child development, the foundation is a huge global player with several prominent offshoots. In 2013, following Hillary Clinton’s departure as secretary of State, it was renamed the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation.

When? 1997-present

Who? Bill Clinton; Hillary Clinton; Chelsea Clinton, etc.

How serious is it? If the Clinton Foundation’s strength is President Clinton’s endless intellectual omnivorousness, its weakness is the distractibility and lack of interest in detail that sometimes come with it. On a philanthropic level, the foundation gets decent ratings from outside review groups, though critics charge that it’s too diffuse to do much good, that the money has not always achieved what it was intended to, and that in some cases the money doesn’t seem to have achieved its intended purpose. The foundation made errors in its tax returns it has to correct. Overall, however, the essential questions about the Clinton Foundation come down to two, related issues. The first is the seemingly unavoidable conflicts of interest: How did the Clintons’ charitable work intersect with their for-profit speeches? How did their speeches intersect with Hillary Clinton’s work at the State Department? Were there quid-pro-quos involving U.S. policy? The second, connected question is about disclosure. When Clinton became secretary, she agreed that the foundation would make certain disclosures, which it’s now clear it didn’t always do. And the looming questions about Clinton’s State Department emails make it harder to answer those questions.

Are Bill Clinton and his team the key to the FBI’s Hillary investigation? Bill’s aide may be the nexus between the Clintons’ political and financial interests

Several weeks ago, I wrote a column titled “Is Bill Clinton in the FBI crosshairs?” That question appears to be increasingly relevant because of the emergence of another, more central one:

Was Hillary Clinton’s unsecure, private email server set up by her husband’s top political operative in order to turbocharge their own political and financial interests?

Justin Cooper may hold the answer.

Mr. Cooper is a central player in the shadowy worlds of Bill and Hillary Clinton — serving as Mr. Clinton’s top aide since 2015, when his predecessor, former right-hand man and “surrogate son” Doug Band, resigned from the Clinton Foundation — yet he has largely escaped notice.

The obscure Mr. Cooper may, in fact, be the linchpin of the case swirling around the Clintons. Perhaps more than anyone apart from the principals themselves, he is at the nexus of the Clinton Foundation, Hillary’s work at the State Department, and her possession of highly sensitive government documents. After all, Mr. Cooper was the one who, before she became secretary, negotiated with the Obama White House over the parameters of acceptable conduct by Bill Clinton and the foundation to minimize the possibility of “conflicts of interest.”

I have previously reported that the server in question actually belonged to, was paid for and was housed by Mr. Clinton, raising questions about his possible legal exposure. Now it appears that it wasn’t just his server, but his team and their co-motive: to leverage Mrs. Clinton’s position as secretary to expand their contacts and raise ever more exorbitant amounts of money for their foundation.

Recall that the FBI probe is proceeding along multiple tracks. The one involving her possible mishandling of classified material is the “what” part of the equation.

Far more important, however, is the “why.” Why did she have these documents on their unsecure, private server in the first place? What was the motive for receiving and sending so many of them, deleting more than 30,000 more and changing her story several times about their nature?

Motive is the key. That brings us to another part of the investigation: possible violations of public corruption laws in the co-mingling of Clinton Foundation work with her duties at the State Department.

Enter Mr. Cooper.

If anything, Bernie is definitely putting a dent into Hillary's ego. He's also forcing Hillary to address the real issues that are facing many Americans. Even though it looks like the deck is stacked against him, one thing he definitely can be proud of, he has brought important issues that are a concern to many young people and many Americans. I still hold out hope for Bernie.

I honestly wasn't surprised. Here in Indiana the independents get to cast a vote in the primary too. Hillary usually only wins when a good percentage of voters aren't allowed to vote.

She was projected to win but by a small margin. This was very close..He didn't swamp her. hey she's not expecting to win west Virginia either but it's not going to slow her down. She's so far ahead right now. . She takes California. She gets the Latino vote in Puerto Rico and New Mexico, she certainly gets D.C..
Sanders still has a path. A very very narrow very rocky mountain goats kind of path. All uphill.

a reply to: Montana

There are 92 delegates in Indiana.
If Sanders got 53% of the vote he should get 49 delegates...well 48.76 but where do you get 3/4 s of a delegate? I wonder what happened to the other 12.
They account for only 80.

Intent is everything with those rules of classification. Unless they can show she intentionally forwarded classified information and that it jeopardized the security of the USA carelessness doesn't carry jail time. She didn't intend to ever jeopardize the nation.

a reply to: Olivine

And she's still the presumptive nominee. Nothing's changed.

OMG that hilarious. Thanks for the laugh.

Oh but she will be. She will be...

a reply to: WeRpeons

Hillary has been facing and addressing the issues of Americans for a very long time. She's been working for the public most of her life. While she was still in law school she gave free legal advice to the poor. She researched the needs of migrant workers under a program run by Walter Mondale. She worked with children's aid programs . One summer she worked her way across Alaska washing dishes and cleaning fish in a plant in Valdez which funny enough fired her when she complained that conditions were unsanitary. Her career had mainly focused on children.
I'm not saying Bernie is not as dedicated a public servant I'm just pointing out that it was an error to say he was forcing her to face issues because she's been doing that her whole life.
She certainly cares about our young adults and wants to see them graduate college debt free. She has a plan for that. .
Free college will bankrupt the nation.

I dont think her actions / crimes are a laughing matter. I find it problematic that some people do.

This shows the delegates in Indiana. There are 92 9.7 are uncommitted. They have hard pledge and soft pledge . What ever that means.

She didn't commit any crimes. I'm laughing at those who believe she did. Not the same thing at all.

a reply to: Sillyolme

Ok.. If she is charged / tried / found guilty / takes a plea bargain will you come back, admit your wrong and apologize?

Hes gonna need a whole lot more than Indiana...
