Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’ primary campaign was undermined by supposedly neutral party officials, according to a document snatched from Democratic National Committee by the hacker who calls himself “Guccifer 2.0.”
The document shows that Clinton and the DNC have been working in together against Sanders from at least the spring of 2015.
The document, dated May 26, 2015, shows that the DNC had already chosen Clinton as the party’s expected nominee and was going to work with reporters from mainstream outlets to downplay Clinton’s negatives and to highlight her positives throughout the course of the primary.
The document was created on same day that Sanders announce his candidacy.
The document also shows the DNC working against former Sen. Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island, former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley and former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb—who all launched candidacies of their own—and also against Vice President Joe Biden, who was considering his own candidacy.
“Reporter Outreach: Working through the DNC and others, we should use background briefings, prep with reporters for interviews with GOP candidates, off-the-record conversations and oppo pitches to help pitch stories with no fingerprints and utilize reporters to drive a message,” the document reads, according to Red Alert Politics.
The document shows how the DNC was working directly for “HRC,” the initials of “Hillary Rodham Clinton.”
“Our goals in the coming months will be to frame the Republican field and the eventual nominee early and to provide a contrast between the GOP field and HRC,” the document continues. “Over the long-term, these efforts will be aimed at getting us the best match-up in the general election, and weakening the eventual nominee through the course of the primary.”
Yeah, it's rigged.
Not surprising, but after this election my honest opinion is both establishments, people need to walk out on and condemn. The two party system needs to die in this country.
It just needs to roll over and die.
Bury it deep and dump cement on it.
You wanna vote, vote based on the candidate who most agrees with your views. Do your research on them and what their policies are. Don't pick based on a little party symbol.

The next Sanders in the race.
Well, if she can sabotage Hillary's supposed clinched presidency I ain't gonna oppose that. Anything is better than Hillary at this point.
