Democratic Primaries

As the campaign progressed, the behavior of Bernie supporters kind of pushed me into the Hillary camp. When she became the nominee, I supported her.

The final straw for me was when they heckled John Lewis and Hillary at the convention. You want to heckle Hillary? It's in bad taste, but politics is a hard-fought game. BUT YOU DO NOT HECKLE JOHN LEWIS! There is no-one in human history that I respect more than John Lewis. This is the final deal-breaker with Sanders and his followers. This is not cyber bullying, this is mob bullying. Against John Lewis. By Sanders supporters.

Nader / Gore- Nader siphoned off voters for his vanity run on "principles." George Bush and his disaster of a presidency followed.

Sanders / Clinton- Sanders' followers, many of them, couldn't force themselves to vote for Clinton. Look around you at the devastation.

We've already seen this movie. We're quite critical of how it's being played out again. We're terrified of the possible result.

Here's a political artifact I proudly posted in Democratic Underground and elsewhere in the '16 election cycle. I've still got it. I'm not wearing it these days.

Please excuse my cyber-bullying in this post.
