Puerto Rico Democratic primary Megathread June 5th, 2016

I mean, just for starters, during the primary of South Carolina there was a tweet made by a black guy hugging Hillary, stating "I'm with her".

That black guy was on the Sanders payroll, in charge with campaigning and organizing staff in South Carolina. He was the only contact anyone within South Carolina had for Bernie Sanders, there is no chain of command.

The person on our local campaign got $9,000 in 3 months and prior to that had never had a job in her life (35) and was obese, on the brink of death. Some of her more controversial positions were:

We should not tell people where the office is, an office phone number or email, or to come to the office.

We should not discuss Bernie in social media

Her role was not to include interacting with volunteers

She removed all admin privileges from the original people that started the Bernie social media groups, and called them 'sexist' when they bitched her out about it (they never got it back).

She said that the best way to support Bernie was to volunteer at the DNC headquarters???

And now today, she's had some 'windfall' of money (like $500,000). PROBABLY unrelated (she said she 'just got' an inheritance, but hard to say considering she's lived like someone making $15,000 / yr for ~10 years, but maybe).

And her new job is effectively with the DNC. She said her role is to get people electected who have a big name, but no experience or desire.

And just recently, she organized a "protest the DNC" event, which she was paying to attend, and eventually turned the "protest" into 'a request for the DNC to become more involved in the local communities', which is just an odd way to protest.
