This is why he didn't call out Hillary rigging the DNC. He wants another bite at the apple. I imagine it'll play out just like last time, same as it did with Ron Paul. Media boxes him out, DNC boxes him out, he loses even though he's the most popular candidate, then Hillary vs Trump then Trump wins again, and this country spends another 4 years stewing in the mess they've created for us to live in.

Or maybe something good will happen. Who knows. Things can't repeat the same patterns forever

I don't see a calm coming with Bernie, the States have serious issues that have always smoothed over by ignoring. By default, I'm a Trump supporter, but in reality, I do think about what I believe Eisenhower said something along the lines of, 'presidents aren't elected, they're selected'. I know that can be taken many different ways, but fast forward to Kennedy, and what he said.

I don't want calm when the agenda, even with Trump, is carrying forward at a fevered pace.

We don't need calm. We need economic revolution.
