If and when sanders people/delegates inside the convention create their intended chaos

what should DNC do?....I am hoping the DNC have some rules that can be used to revoke the credentials of the disruptors have them removed as delegates and escorted from the premises....the game is over and creating chaos doesn't serve america when we are facing the threat of trump.....it may work in 3rd world countries but not here. When you lose the vote...you have lost....If sanders wants this to be his legacy, thats his choice....we don't have to sit by and take it.

endorse her he doesn't get to speak.

And, if he endorses Hillary then he has no room to contest or spew his negative finger pointing rants.

Senators, Representatives, and the vast number of distinguished people who have endorsed Hillary would not stand idly by if a few disrupters try to interfere with the candidate who won the most votes, and most pledged delegates

8. It's pathetic that this is what Sanders and his dwindling group of attention seekers have come to.

Farting and acting like petulant children. If this is how Sanders and his remainders want to be remembered, then so be it.

It will ensure a nice big audience for our convention and that's good! And it will give the country an eye opening view of what Sanders' supporters look like, act like and fail like.

are discussing this right now. There are too many serious terrorist threats to allow disruptions that could endanger the decision makers who will be present at this convention. Disruptions will have to be handled immediately and firmly.

I don't like Republicans, but I hope they are making similar arrangements.

People have had their chance to vote. They will have their chance to vote in the general, too. (I am sure there will be some Republican voter suppression, and we need to be ready for it). But most of us will be voting and expressing our preferences in sane, democratic ways. Everyone else can stay the hell away.
