Sanders Surges As 1 Million Fake Hillary Followers Exposed

Tyler Durden's picture




 

"This feels like 2008 all over again," as NPR reports the latest Iowa Poll showed Sanders just 7 points behind Hillary Clinton, who leads 37 to 30 percent among likely Democratic caucus-goers. Why 2008? As NPR notes, that's when a heavily favored Clinton stumbled and lost to Barack Obama, then a young senator whose middle name, Hussein, was the same as a dictator the U.S. had just overthrown and whose last name rhymed with America's Public Enemy No. 1. And while the socialist septuagenarian continues to surge, Hillary faces yet another 'issue', as Yahoo Tech reports, 1 million (or one third) of her 'apparent' Twitter followers are fake.

 

 

As The Des Moines Register reports,

Liberal revolutionary Bernie Sanders, riding an updraft of insurgent passion in Iowa, has closed to within 7 points of Hillary Clinton in the Democratic presidential race.

 

She's the first choice of 37 percent of likely Democratic caucusgoers; he's the pick for 30 percent, according to a new Des Moines Register/Bloomberg Politics Iowa Poll.

 

But Clinton has lost a third of her supporters since May, a trajectory that if sustained puts her at risk of losing again in Iowa, the initial crucible in the presidential nominating contest.

 

 

This is the first time Clinton, the former secretary of state and longtime presumptive front-runner, has dropped below the 50 percent mark in four polls conducted by the Register and Bloomberg Politics this year.

 

Poll results include Vice President Joe Biden as a choice, although he has not yet decided whether to join the race. Biden captures 14 percent, five months from the first-in-the-nation vote Feb. 1. Even without Biden in the mix, Clinton falls below a majority, at 43 percent.

 

 

 

 

"These numbers would suggest that she can be beaten," said Steve McMahon, a Virginia-based Democratic strategist who has worked on presidential campaigns dating to 1980.

*  *  *

But Hillary's problems continue to rise as Yahoo Tech finds that an analysis of the Hillary Clinton's and Joe Biden's Twitter accounts has revealed that over one million of Clinton's followers are fake, while only 53% of Biden's social media fans are real.

Fake Twitter followers abound among the U.S. presidential candidates as they gear up for the election in 2016. And Hillary Clinton isn’t the only candidate with more than a million of them. GOP frontrunner Donald Trump also has well over a million fake followers. Other candidates have them, too, but not as many (in large part because they don’t have as many followers, period).

 

“Fake followers are a mix of inactive Twitter users (who signed up but never log on), completely fake users that are created for the sole purpose of following people, and spam bots that are programmatically set up to tweet ads and malicious content,” explained David Caplan, co-founder of TwitterAudit.

 

“Fake followers aren’t inherently bad,” Caplan said, “they are just a dishonest form of using social media. They can be leveraged to inflate someone’s reputation. People will most likely follow someone who already has many followers, so buying followers is a way to boost your follower count in the future. Fake followers can also be used to commit fraud in the sense that you can inflate the value of your Twitter account for advertising purposes without creating any real value.”

Here are the "real" follower counts for the numerous presidential hopefuls...

Poor Hillary.  Se fought the press a long time ago, rightfully calling them that vast right wing conspiracy and here it is proven right. 
Just like Hunter Biden, somebody else enrolling him in Ashley Madison, here we have 1,000,000 false followers of Hillary created by the press to defame her good name.  Otherwise, how would they know that they were false.
It's a Conspiracy I tell ya'. 

And like all Conspiracy Theorists, that makes Hillary ineligible for any position of responsibility.

The Perceptions Management and Illusions are Breathtaking to Behold.

It's amazing to me that we are bothering to comment or read this stuff (and here I am; yes, I see the irony) when the people presenting "the race" are the same MSM source of information that they have been for the past 50 years.

i.e. The accompice of the thief who has robbed your house four times comes to you and offers you the choice from among his four new friends to be your security expert.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for supper. Democracy does not protect rights of the minority. If 50.1% want your guns to be illegal, then the would be illegal. That's why our founders set up a republic.

It is also sad that Sanders is socialist (self-admitted) and Trump is a fascist (all but self-admitted). All but one candiate (again) are statist. They believe that the government is the solution, not the problem. There is only one candidate who wants to end the fed!

I would agree that there are two significant events that steered the US to the shitter.  One, the moral and policy side which you just pinned down.  That was LBJ launching the Great Society, which doomed the society. The Vietnam war was another pointless sideshow.  The other event is when the elected officials realized they could spend into infinity, starting around 1982 or so.  Nixon's flight from gold was then doubled down on by Bill Clinton's signature to repeal Glass-Steagall.  That enabled nice guys like Jon Corzine to be able to gamble with depositor's money.  Now it's quite clear that Congress is for sale, and they demonstrate it daily.

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were walking down the street when 
they came to a homeless person. Trump gave the homeless person his 
business card and told him to come to his office for a job. He then 
took $20 out of his pocket and gave it to the homeless person.

Hillary was very impressed, so when they came to another homeless 
person, she decided to help. She walked over to the homeless person 
and gave him directions to the welfare office. She then reached into 
Trump 's pocket and got out $20. She kept $15 for her administrative fees
and gave the homeless person $5.00 
 
Now, do you understand the difference!!

Great. I'll take your share of Medicare and Social Security, since such things are so distasteful. I'll send my kid to a public university like Cal, but yours can go to USC. I'll drive on the Interstate, but you'll have to find private roads. And when someone comes to rob your home, I know a great private security outfit. You'll need to call them. 

Yeah, I understand the difference. The answer is not black, not white, but in subtle shades of gray.

Huh?

Have your ever been to college or a university?

The whole things a joke. With classes graded on an extremely generous curve. Classes that provide previous tests to study for the exam. And, the exams just a repeat of previous tests, the only difference is the order of the questions.

And, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Let's don't even get started on the need for remedial courses for students coming straight out of high school.

If colleges and universities graded on a straight scale, at least 80% of student body would flunk out. Of course, we can't have that. All those administrators would lose their generous salaries and pensions.

Proper reasoning and objective skills, ha!

I've know quite a few graduates of higher learning that couldn't even tie their own shoe laces.

"That there are literally multitudes of people with higher-education degrees (the kind you don't obtain without proper reasoning and objective skills, as well as rational thought processes), that have and will continue to vote for these candidates..."

Yes and no.  Given the state of higher education today, where professors are now literally punished for challenging the comfortable bubble their students live in, there are many students who need never obtain "proper reasoning and objective skills" to graduate.  They bitch to the administration, and their cherished beliefs are held sacred over any rational attempt to balance them.  That's the no.

On the other hand, the yes is also true.  My father is one of the sharpest minds I know.  His was the first influence leading me to explore libertarianism, and he claims that this is his philosophy.  And yet, when push comes to shove, his trusted information source is still NPR, and he buys the official line on 9-11 (having no science background with which to feel comfortable questioning it).  He has also bought into the "we must elect the electable choice, so that the other [end of the world] candidate doesn't get in."  In short, he still believes fundamentally in the two party-system as has been practiced for the 65 years of his political experience.  What you say about 'religion' is absolutely right; this is about faith.  He is unwilling to give up his faith in the core of the system.

I have lost any faith whatsoever in this system.  The sooner the ongoing breakdown becomes sufficiently powerful to prevent the US power structure (political AND corporate) from enacting a single edict the better.  EOS.

I know that the Twitter and Facebook numbers can be bought and are often faked, apparently by the companies themselves.

But over on LinkedIn, I notice there are some "users" who often go through threads and "like" every single message.  I just sort of wonder wtf's going on with that, are those volunteers and if so what do they get out of it, and if it's a LinkedIn bot, then why don't they hide it better?

Zion's next Oval Office puppet/governor has already been selected.

Good luck with that voting thing.

Zion is a scheme, not an ethnicity.

 

If voting matter, they'd kill you, like they killed Eric Garner over selling "loosies."

hmmm.

'Zion' is neither a scheme nor an ethnicity, but the name of a hill.

The name pre-dates the Israelites, probably named by one of the other Canaanite tribes which actually founded Jerusalem.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Zion

As for Zionism - if you don't think it's related to Judaism, therefore Jews, you're either stupid or dishonest.

However, it is also the case that "Zionism" is a political ideology and naturally is not in the same category as ethnicity - or race - or "tribe."

Just ask Joe Biden.

As for the temple and wailing wall

Of course.
You follow the law and do the push-ups, and the libtards think you'll stand up for lawbreaking scum just because of heritage?

Doesn't work that way for blacks either. Just not enough who passed the test to make a difference.

If your black, don't get mad at me for just pointing shit out. You . Are. Tools.
Your votes are taken for granted, and with good reason. You are, as a group, a very well kept,trained and manipulated group. Throw a some EBT your way, a little section 8 and a Bammy phone. Cheap date.

To get attention focused back, you need to step out one cycle. Vote for Trump. That will get the Dems unfocused on illeagals and anchor babies, and back to you issues, like it should be.
That what us conservitives are doing. Fuck you Mitchell and Boehner. Here, work with President Trump you backstabbing cocksuckers.
It can't possibly be any worse.

Oh, an epiphany. I saw Obama swear on a bible, on the steps of the Capitol, the Oath Of Office. To Justice Roberts. Swore to uphold the laws of this country. Not to pick and choose.

We shoulda stacked a Koran in there, just to cover our ass.
It's Obama and Roberts little inside joke. Snicker,snicker. We won't make that mistake again.

Diebold is a familiar name to me. Either I went to school with a kid named Diebold or had a Teacher named Diebold.

This makes me wonder.

Why all the German Named Kids in my classes.

Why did they seem so competitive in Elementary School.

Hey

We live in a global world and with Clinton's high and corrupt profile I follow her on Twitter

PROBLEM

I live in Australia and have NO VOTING RIGHTS but have a VALID Twitter account

Never heard of Sanders - BUT BILL my following Clinton is as useless to her as tits on a bull

Wonder how many other followers of Clinton's Twitter account come from outside the US - maybe a million?

Cheers

This should not be a problem, Mr. Stud.
Get your lady knocked up ( pregnant) . Down under, that might mean punching her in the face, that won't help.
At about 8 1/3 weeks, schedule a vacation to the USA.
Be on US soil when mama pops the the little bundle of joy......and presto!!

You got an ANCHOR BABY!!! You might be white. That will loose points. But dude, the benefits are great.
First, you can't get arrested. Or deported. Claim poor, and sign up for bennies. Kid gets an education, on the house. Politicians will court YOU! Fuck a native born. Your special. You won. You popped out a kid on US soil, and our laws now say you are Unfuckingtouchable!!!!!

Go get a drivers Licencse. ( no paperwork, that's only for stupid natives), and MotorVoter ( it rhymes!) you can vote. How cool is that?

Being a whitey white face is no barrier to being an oppressed minority.

You got Elizabeth Warren.  Navajo, because cheekbones.

You got Rachael Dolezal.  Black NAACP activist.  Black, because kinky hair.

And lastly, you got Shaun King.  #blacklivesmatter activist.  Black because something...

This is 2015 baby!  The limitations of your identity are endless.

This might sound paranoid, but perhaps the stock market decline is realted to the politcal fortunes of Hilary Clinton and Jeb Bush.

The favored candidates of the political-financial complex are Hilary Clinton and Jeb Bush.  Its been pointed out that some companies donated money to BOTH their campaigns.  Really, the only major difference I see between the two is on social issues.

But Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush are showing  severe weakness.  Hillary with the email scandal, and Jeb Bush behind Donald Trump in opinion polling.

The favored candidates of the political-financial complex might not get elected.  Heck, the nomination of Sanders would give Wall Street a heart attack.  

So the market decline is engineered to scare people

Agreed. The last honest president we had was Ike. He warned us of the MIC.  Kennedy was a corrupt, womanizing, rich boy who stole the election from Nixon with the help of his crminal and Nazi collaborator father.
