Wait until Wisconsin voters find this out about the landslide winner of their Democratic primary.

Beginning to think and it remains to be seen but once away from dog whistles (R) is just not very good at politics.
Like they don't think through what they are saying

Will the DNC working against sanders behind the scenes keep sanders supporters from voting for Hillary? I doubt it. Why should Ryan's comment hurt him then?
who is the "him" in hurt him ?

I could see Bernie having a cabinet position potentially.

I don't think it will hurt Ryan. His district is fairly safe.
and he will never be POTUS
But what I think is, the statement in the tweet would give Sanders voters that might not have been inclined to vote a reason to vote. Not only in Wisconsin but nationally.
Helping (D) run for Senate majority
....
curious what deal Sanders made whether a legislative post like Chairman of Budget or if he goes into the Administration at the cabinet level
has to be more meat than planks in platform
curious what deal Warren made !

Lord help us if she does
It's less lol-worthy than putting Bernie in charge of $$, I'll say that
It would be such a **** show.
Politics aside, nominating Obama to the supreme court would be terrible for everyone. First, I highly doubt Obama would rather do that then living the incredible life of being an ex president. Second, it would hilariously undermine the court to appoint a known partisan politician. I know it's already partisan, but to be so open and brazen about it would not be a good look. Finally, the democratic party would be losing arguably their biggest weapon when it comes to future campaigns.
thank you weso1!
If you don't think the court has had more than its share of partisan politicians throughout history, you've been living on a different planet. Former Chief Justice Warren Burger was a Republican political operative in Minnesota (and a dirty one at that) before going on the court. Former Chief Justice Earl Warren was once Governor of California. Scalia hung out with Cheney. Former Chief Justice Roger Taney was in Andrew Jackson's cabinet. William Rehnquist wrote speeches for Barry Goldwater during the 1964 Presidential campaign. William Howard Taft went on the Supreme Court in the early-1920s after being President a decade earlier. I'm not necessarily saying Obama should go on the court (although he has the legal chops to serve well) because he would be a polarizing figure at a time when institutions are already under fire. But if you think that justices get on the court solely on their legal theories and academic work, you're wrong.

It'd be great for the country but Obama has already done his share and more.
I want Obama on the Supreme court. It would serve the Republican party right. On his inauguration night they hold a dinner to pledge to obstruct Obama throughout his presidency? I remembered that. Or the "you lied" garbage. That made me run out and vote in 2012 for Obama. Oh I want him on the SC. I hope he sits down at every state of the union arrogantly and uppity lol. Oh that mess offended me as a black woman. Michelle and the girls can campaign for the democrats going foward. I need this to happen stat!!!!
