[Peace-discuss] My concern today

[Robert Naiman]

We're certainly at an interesting juncture, aren't we?

Here's the current 538 forecast. It shows Bernie with a clear plurality of
elected delegates, but not a majority. Impeccably-credentialed
Establishment Dems such as Terry McAuliffe, David Plouffe, and Ben Rhodes
have said recently that if Bernie gets the most delegates, he should be the
nominee. Other people are saying something different. How will it all turn
out? Are you sure you know in advance?
