News reported Sanders supporters are holding a fart-in as a “whimsical” protest against Hillary Clinton’s nomination. In rejecting the “propaganda” that a vote for the Green Party is a vote for Trump, Jill Stein told NPR that Trump vs. Clinton amounts to a lethal choice that requires the voters “to pick their weapon of self destruction”. “It needs your continuing activism and your tenacity”, declared Reich. While many GOP candidates had endorsed states rights for marijuana during the primaries and most young Republicans support outright legalization, convention delegates were solidly pro-Drug War. That led to arguments between committee members and between members and non-voting observers, most of whom were Sanders supporters.

Before a cheering crowd in Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena, Donald Trump accepted the Republican Party’s nomination for president Thursday, vowing to restore law and order to the nation.
Sanders offered his opinions throughout Trump’s speech, denying some of the claims the Republican made about instability in the Middle East and climate change – as well as questioning why the bloviating billionaire didn’t mention issues such as student debt.
“The Sanders delegates, their bellies full of beans, will be able to return to the Wells Fargo Center and greet the rhetorical flatulence of Hillary Clinton with the real thing”, Honkala said.
“If Bernie hit the campaign trail with (Clinton) in the coming months as her hype man, getting people excited and tapping into the frustration he spoke to so well in the campaign, (she) would definitely benefic from it”, Molloy said.
For more details, see the convention website. Her daughter, Chelsea, is also scheduled to speak.
The meeting will precede the 3 p.m. start of the convention.

“It’s my view that if Clinton chose Warren, it would be a much less contentious convention”, Cohen said. Also these two ladies are dead set on following their own hearts and minds to the conventions, choosing to go with Voldemort and Andrew Jackson over the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency. He said Sanders’ endorsement did not dissuade him from making the cross-country trek. “You never know what’s going to happen after the convention”.
