  1. Kasich hasn't dropped out yet and his numbers are at like -14% -- I think he is in it until the end tbh.
  2. Bernie will and should keep running. The FBI has a dozen individuals investigating Hillary Clinton on the email scandal mess. They claim to have overwhelming evidence so she might get indicted. If so, Bernie would most likely take her spot. I don't see that happening because the head of the investigation is a Republican. I could see the FBI waiting until the general election to indict her, causing her to lose a lot of votes and potentially putting Trump in office.

  6. The FBI cannot indict someone. That's up to a grand jury and the United States Attorney General who is a Democrat will have very big say on whether or not such proceedings are allowed to go forward. I have a hard time believing that the current U.S. Department of Justice would choose to prosecute the odds on frontrunner to be the next occupant of the Oval Office and essentially hand the race to their political opposition. The FBI could go public with the evidence they've collected in such an event and lay it all out for everyone to see but the decision of whether or not to prosecute is ultimately up not up to them. Even if it did happen Hillary's still just a few strokes of the president's pen away from receiving a pardon.

    I say there's no indictment, her friends in the press run heavy cover for her against Trump in what will probably be the nastiest campaign in American history, and she ultimately wins fairly easily receiving 50%-55% of the popular vote and around 330 electoral votes.
  7. I think you are probably correct. But not quite so certain that she won't face some issues. Assuming not big happens to Hillary she will most certainly wins. She is ahead by 20% in Florida.

  8. I believe Florida passed a little bit ago so it doesn't really matter now.
    Bernie took Indiana which upset Hillary.
    The states that are left:
    • West Virginia
    • Kentucky
    • Oregon
    • California
    • Montana
    • New Jersey
    • New Mexico
    • North Dakota
    • South Dakota
    • District of Columbia
    As always Hillary is predicted to win a majority of these. However, I believe Bernie will take most of the remaining primaries.
  9. Kasich will be suspending his campaign.

    I guess he couldn't handle being 4th in a 2-man race.
  10. I'm talking about the general election. Bernie's done dude time to accept it.

  11. That could not be more false. Hillary Clinton is being investigated by 12+ FBI members. She is going to get indicted. It's a matter of when, not if.
  12. Mathematically, he can do it. He has a narrow path to victory.
  13. Well people who liked this post, we are doomed
  14. I will repeat. Bernie's done dude. Hey, I like Bernie a lot but I have been watching politics a long time. She ain't gonna be indicted, Bernie is done and Hillary is gonna be the next president. Nothing is gonna change that. I put out a bet of 1 million rupees that she would be president about 6 weeks ago and no one took me up on it. Any takers now?

  15. I will also repeat. It is mathematically possible for him to win. He is on a narrow road to victory.

    I will put a 10k bet on she won't be POTUS this term.
  16. Bernie still has chance. She will get indicted. It's a matter of now - allowing Sanders to take her spot - or before the general election, which would be more damaging to her as it would allow Trump to secure presidency.
  17. I'll take you up on that. If you're wrong, I'll make 10k. If you're right, I'll be the most ecstatic person on the face of the earth.
  18. Wait, no. If I am right, I best be getting 10k.
