COMMENT

The media and the public still don’t get it. Not surprising, they’re not trying very hard. Let me spell it out for you.
PUMA’s are women _and_ men who are angry at the DNC for the way they carried out these primaries. Sexism by msm was tolerated; dirty Chicago politics was tolerated; they expected us to loverlook sexism by Obama and his campaigners, the REZKO scandal, his racist pastor(s), the black theology (look it up), and the fact he voted for FISA.
FISA?!!!! Hillary did not vote for it.
EVEN IF we could forgive all that – we will _not_ vote for a candidate who will be proven to have engaged in CAUCUS FRAUD.

The media keeps their mouths shut. Just like when we invaded Iraq. Right, Christiana Amanpour? SHE had the honesty to admit they “self-censor.” WE THE PEOPLE won’t stand for it any more. Vote your conscience.
