By not speaking forcefully against these preparations, Sanders is endorsing them and not the nominee. If he gets near a stage at the convention, I'll be surprised.
This group is so afield, they think the appropriate place to protest $ in politics and voting rights is the DEMOCRATIC convention! Dems have a bill in the Senate right now -not one of Sanders' mind you, oh no!- to combat Citizens United. And it's Republicans who stifle voting rights. How lost can one dormant campaign get?!

Their whole feed is bilious counterproductivity. And it is only thinly removed from the Bernie Sanders Campaign-
