> This is absolutely hilarious. Obama tried to appease AIPAC by inserting

> platform, then faced a delegate revolt, but Los Angeles Mayor Antonio
> Villaraigosa declared that the change had passed by the necessary
> two-thirds majority anyway (when anyone watching the video can see and hear
> that it did not).
