To all of you calling for a third-party run by uh-huh_honey in SandersForPresident

[–]jb2386 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are moderating exactly the same as we have for last few years. There appears to be people trying to spread a level of distrust of the mods within the community and they're hoping it'll split us apart. Please don't give into that.

Aidan and David made this sub over 2 years ago and have been in control the entire time (Except Aidan took leave to work for the campaign). We are the same mods doing the same job. We have more on board lately to help with the recent primaries, but we senior mods monitor and review their modding work.

psa: It's not over until the FBI investigation is finished. In fact, our chances of winning the nomination through votes was over after the NY primary. Don't let the DNC nominate Joe Biden because Sanders and his supporters stopped caring. by Purlpo in SandersForPresident

Obama probably wouldn't know if an indictment is coming. Because it's an investigation of Hillary while under his administration, the FBI would be fearful of interference and so would keep him in the dark on some things.

Alternatively he could know but withholding an endorsement would give it away to the Hillary team and might lead to them attempting to compromise evidence or witnesses.

Of course I'm serious. I detest Hillary and will be fighting for Bernie as long as I can and I can guarantee you all the mods will be fighting for Bernie too. We very much hope Bernie gets the nom and we get to push this sub into overdrive for the general.

Can the mods help move people to r/BernTheConvention? by hacksociety in SandersForPresident

[–]jb2386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're looking at how we can decrease the amount of filtering now too btw. Now that activism has died down a bit we can let a broader range of topics. We're just working out which ones still keep the sub focused.

Asked if it was possible another Clinton could be better than a Republican, Koch said: "It's possible."

Bernie Sanders Calls Meeting at His Home in Vermont Sunday to Discuss Campaign's Future by devilwearspantsuits in politics

[–]jb2386 79 points80 points  (0 children)

He's said from the beginning of his run he'll endorse the Democratic nominee. I still won't like it but we know he'll do it.

Trump on Jeb endorsement: 'Who the hell cares?' by HillaryPaidShill in politics

[–]jb2386 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We do want her to take them on. But she doesn't admit that Bernie has influenced her with them and looking at her record we can't trust her to actually adhere to them.

Taking it on permanently yeah, but it's clear all the stuff she says can't be trusted.

Just being clear, we are not endorsing Hillary. Even if Bernie does.

His speech after Cali was great (coming from a Bernie supporter). He obviously aimed part of it to us, but at least he did that instead of stealing Bernie's policies and expect us to like him like a certain someone other.

None of the top mods have changed. I can guarantee you that.

[Meta] Can s4p put the D.C. primary data back up in the header? by untildeath in SandersForPresident

[–]jb2386 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SFP won't be shutting down. Though it is an activism sub and so after DC and until we get marching orders from Bernie regarding the convention or super delegates there's not much we can do. This gives us the time and opportunity to continue with Bernie's political revolution by supporting down ballot candidates, and the new sub gives us a way to do that regardless of which way the convention goes. If Bernie wins the convention you can bet your ass SFP will go back to full steam ahead.

Sanders for President Sub Possibly in Danger by Murkwater in SandersForPresident

[–]jb2386[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a script/bot that automatically updates a few things like # of callers from berniepb and the donation thermometer. Something has gone wrong with the script and we're unable to disable it. It keeps overriding everything. The mod who controls it is asleep, we're hoping to have it fixed ASAP.

Edit: ah looks like we got it fixed now.
