Both of them, as individuals, have treated the other with respect and dignity - something that is clearly not visible on the other side of the political spectrum. I'm thankful that, regardless of whether it's Bernie or Hillary, the Democrats will be putting forth a candidate I will be PROUD to be voting for in November.
I've never seen anything like this Republican primary and I am really thankful that it's not the party or candidates I support.

(640 posts)There are fanatics behind every candidate; I think both Bernie and Hillary would make for a fantastic President. If these supporters are truly Democrats, however, they will support whomever is the nominee, which should lead to victory in November.

This fustercluck can't even fake it decently. In the end, they're not even trying to act presidential.

Truly, we ARE better.
