Obama already said he won't endorse anyone in the primary but I'm not sure it'd make a huge difference considering a lot of Sanders support comes from people who were disenchanted with Obama after his first term so-
Obama's quasi-endorsement is more about going after and cementing the support of loyal Obama supporters than going after Sanders supporters. As has been mentioned in the media constantly, Iowa and New Hampshire aren't representative of the base of the Democratic party, it's a call to the wider base of the party once the primaries get to more diverse states imo.
NARAL and Planned Parenthood are really turning me off in this election-- And I maintain that Hillary talked wayyyyyyy too much about foreign policy. I zonked out like 3 or 4 minutes in to her rambling on.
Bernie did good, but I wish he would switch up some of the rhetoric and call things out differently. Like, instead of "top tenth of one percent," he should explain it's 130,000 out of 390M who are getting 95% of TRILLIONS of dollars every year and that it's technically our money because we're not only the workers who create the production & means to sell, but also the consumer. I don't know, I think I've heard wayyyy too many of his speeches by now, lol.
The "establishment" argument needs to die. Any organization that is big enough to have an endorsement worth having is probably part of the political establishment (and the Human Rights Campaign is awful, I don't give a shit about their feelings)
