WE ARE HOPING THAT MS. CLINTON WILL KEEP HER WORD. THIS IS THE ACID TEST!

Bernie, I see that you've officially publicly endorsed Hillary today.

I hope she has offered you the V.P. position for your endorcement, cuz if she hasn't, you've likely been used and screwed over, and your supporters may not get on board Hillary's bandwagon.

Are you interested in the V.P. position where you could at least POTENTIALLY be an influence over Hillary with your agenda?

If you're interested in that (and now you SHOULD be!), have you even asked with her about that?

Your followers would get on board Hillary's bandwagon if she announced you as her V.P.

That strategy worked very well for Reason-Bush in 1980. There's no reason why it couldn't work for you and Hillary now.

If nothing else, it would scare Trump to death, cuz with you BOTH on the Democratic ticket, Trump could REALLY lose this election.

If you're not made Hillary's V.P., then there's still a VERY good chance that Trump could win this election, and then we'e ALL screwed.

Think about it and talk to Hillary ago it, if you haven't already, cuz the real need for that is the biggest "buzz" among all the progressive groups right now, along with question why Hillary and the DNC is no longer taking a firm stand against the TTP, which she still needs to do firmly if she wants the progressive vote.

A Hillary-Bernie ticket would be a dream come true for us progressives.

Talk to Hillary and make it happen!

I never believed Ms. Clinton when she suddenly came out against the TPP when campaigning against Bernie Sanders. She was promoting it while in the State Department and with her history of siding with the corporations and Wall Street, she will very likely return to her former position.

If the DNC doesn't change the Party Platform to reflect that the DNC does not support the TPP, I won't be voting for her.

Millions and millions of us are #NeverHillary. Despite the endorsement from Bernie. Better do some polls on this while your superdelegates still have a chance to make Bernie the nominee. People already left the party after today's Sanders endorsement. Millions will leave before the election. The registration of Democrats will drop several percent and you will have about as many registered voters as the Republicans. The election fraud not mentioned by Bernie has not going unnoticed by us. We want a clear commitment that TPP will not be passed in a lame duck session or ever. We want Bernie as the nominee as a good faith sign that the party has returned to it's roots as being a party of the people not the 1%. Two weeks until the superdelegates vote at the convention. DNC the ball is in your court now.

This is why nobody trusts Clinton. She will say anything for a vote and then stab you in the back. Come back Bernie!!!

Opposition to the filthy TPP is a NON-NEGOTIABLE issue!!!! If the Democratic Party does not oppose it with VIGOR.....I will finally decide to leave the Democratic party itself and end my support for all Democrats.....we are THAT furious!!!!!

I would've told you to stand fast against endorsing Clinton, but you have so, the point is moot. Nevertheless, you still can take a stand against the TPP in the Senate. And Sanders' supporters still can make preference known if we were to, en masse, write you in as our choice for President. We could essentially take back our country from those who would take us back to a class tiered society. Never give up Mr. Sanders!

Please do whatever it takes to stop the TPP!! Most of us Bernie supporters are well aware that Hillary will let Obama push this thru during the lame duck session- and we will hold her responsible too. If she allows this to stay on the platform just because it may hurt Obama's feelings I will be blown away! What!? Take down the middle class and let corporations sue countries just so you don't offend Obama? Absolutely obscene!

Even Trump opposes TPP! Don't let him take this issue away from us!!

I have been a Bernie supporter and campaign contributor multiple times for over 1-1/2 years and support real progressive issues for ... hello ... WE THE PEOPLE! Without a Democratic platform committee proposal AGAINST the TPP, you can count on me to oppose virtually ALL Democrats for office. My family and I will NOT be fooled by people like Obama and Hillary Clinton. It is simple ... either you are formally opposed to the disastrous TPP ... or your words are not worth spit.
From a former U.S. Navy officer and very disappointed Democrat ... perhaps former Democrat.

Please tell me which trade deal has been GOOD for our country and its workers. Why would TPP be any better? Allowing other governments to sue the U. S. seems pretty stupid. Letting businesses sue if they have lost money, when they don't pay taxes to OUR government, seems pretty stupid, too.

Unless opposition to the TPP is put in the Democratic Party platform, this lifelong Democrat will NOT vote for the nominee. Likewise, a plank opposing all fracking. My vote has a price - gee, just like the lobbyists purchase the politician's votes!

Like the 15 billion dollar suit by Trans Canada under NAFTA? The TPP will fling open the doors for corporations to loot the treasury.

Bernie - no TPP no matter what . I'm counting on you to stop it. I am one of your most ardent supporters and still want you to be President!

Run on the Green ticket with Jill Stein.
The Democratic Party is worthless to the public

1) Bernie knows that Trump will crash the country. So his endorsement of Hillary means little to me except trying to stop that from happening.

2) The pivotal nature of the passing of the TPP and Keystone Pipeline ... as well as the fact campaign finance laws won't change ... this was our last shot to stop it. I won't vote for someone who is going to hand global authority over to companies OVER the rights of sovereign nations.

Bernie thinks we can limp till 2020 when his young politicians can come of age.
But it's gonna be too late.
The Oligarchy will take a global hold during her presidency with only Russia to stand in the way, and WW3 is a good possibility.

That's with CLINTON as president.

Trump will be a nightmare on every level.

But maybe that's what the country needs to get the fear and hate our of its system. Maybe it needs riots and bloodshed ... maybe we need to hit rock bottom.

Maybe I'm willing to lose things in my life and watch horror even though I will be directly affected.

Maybe that's what we need.

But I'm pretty confident Trump and Hillary are working together and that since she so easily rigged a closely watched primary that she can do it again.

Either way ... I can't see how she getting my vote. I think crashing the country might be better than the permanent disability she's offering.

TPP is NAFTA on steroids.

I am disgusted by the DNC. I only know ONE person, other than politicians, who openly endorses the TPP. Millions and millions of Democrats have said no to the TPP, and yet, our party refuses to take a position? After this election, I am seriously thinking of joining a different party, since I'm having a hard time distinguishing the DNC from the GOP.

What on earth is wrong with the DNC? You are almost as contemptible as Trump and the GOP. You are destroying the people of this country. Shame on you!
