Just curious; lots of comments about Trump, and not a peep about Sanders. Anyone care to offer their thoughts?

It's excellent that Bernie Sanders carried Indiana.

The b.s. that has out there for some time, since at least March, is that the Democratic primaries are effectively over. No. They are still going.

The Republicans effectively have their nominee before the Democrats do.

The exit polls (especially his carriage of his party's No. 1 voting-age base, those 17/18 to 29), state after state, give Bernie Sanders one very important, compelling reason to go all the way. (Hillary losing 17/18 to 29 year olds by 4-to-1 margins, state after state, is not okay for a long-perceived party frontrunner.)

No, by that definition the Republicans do not have their nominee. Trump isn't at 1,237. Also by this definition, Obama wasn't the nominee until April or so of 2012.

Enough double standards. Either they are both presumptive nominees or neither one is.

Trump doesn't have enough delegates, but how would he lose if he has no opponents?

There's still dropped out candidates on the ballot. Their chances of denying Trump enough delegates are the same as Sanders denying Clinton enough delegates. 0 = 0
