I don't like either answer. I say NO! because Hillary has too much power and the super delegates are welded to her. They WILL NOT change their support for Hillary. They themselves are politicians and they like and need Big Money to keep themselves in office.
Bernie does well at caucases. I'm sure he'll continue to improve (and I hope be victorious) in primaries. After the "bird" incident on Saturday, a lot has changed. #BirdieSanders will bring up the clip. There's a joke about Hillary looking for a trained parakeet. Whatever. The other detail that many seem to miss is that Bernie is ahead on pledged delegates. Hillary's numbers are bolstered by the Superdelegates, alone, and if they change their allegience with the popular vote in their States, then Bernie will look even better, even faster. Still, the Clinton machine can apply a good amount of pressure. Time will tell. At this point, IMHO, Bernie has the momentum. Meanwhile, I'm facebanking, attending meetings, and doing what I can to support Bernie.
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
—Dean Baker, economist and author of Plunder and Blunder, False Profits, and Taking Economics Seriously
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
—Tom Hayden, author of The Long Sixties and director, Peace and Justice Resource Center.
From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
—Jim Hightower, National Radio Commentator, Writer, Public Speaker, and author of the bestselling Thieves in High Places

I am sure the media will continue to lie, and focus on superdelegates, which need to be outlawed.
