i know if hillary is the nominee bernie

[DesertFlower]

will ask his supporters to support her. what will you do then?

same for hillary. if bernie's the nominee she'll give him her support.

[JonLeibowitz]

1. I will vote in the general elect.? If you want more info, you need to be in the voting booth with m

[DanTex]

4. This will be the response of many Bernie fans, I suspect, and it tells a lot about who really cares

about the future of the nation, and who just wants their hero to win.

[JonLeibowitz]

5. False. I will never vote for Republicans. I also never waste my vote on a write in.

Or are you opposed to the secret ballot as a concept?

[DanTex]

6. Everyone knows what you are saying.

[JonLeibowitz]

7. Yes. I am saying i will vote in November. Do you think I should not?

[DanTex]

8. We get it.

[JonLeibowitz]

20. I simply answered the question. Perhaps answers to a question not asked were desired

[DesertFlower]

9. well said. nt

[Punkingal]

2. I will vote the way my conscience dictates.

[DesertFlower]

3. so will i and that will be for whoever

is the nominee. we cannot have 4 or 8 more years of a republican president especially with the clowns who are running.

in '04 bush won because a lot of people didn't like kerry -- i'm talking about dems and independents. my late husband was one of them.

[zappaman]

36. +1

[Raster]

10. WHOMEVER is the Nominee of the Democratic Party for POTUS...

...will have my unwavering and unending support. BOTH Secretary Clinton and Senator Sanders are head and shoulders above ANYONE the GOP will field. Anyone.

I would prefer the nominee be Senator Sanders. HOWEVER, I absolutely refuse to live with another GOP hack for POTUS. If Secretary Clinton is the nominee, I will support her candidacy through thick-and-thin!

[DesertFlower]

12. i agree. nt

[in_cog_ni_to]

11. I always vote. There's a lot of down ballot people to vote for

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

[madokie]

13. I doubt she will

[DesertFlower]

14. she will. she'll be upset but

she does care about the party. she doesn't want to see us move backwards.

[JPnoodleman]

15. I am unsure if a vote for Hillary would be any different than a vote for Rubio or Cruz....

Only the impending Trumpocolypse could make her relatively Right-Wing positions palatable.

I may vote for her, but I would need some reason to believe a Clinton White House would be substantively different than a Cruz or Rubio White House.

[DesertFlower]

17. you've got to be kidding or you're not

listening to the repubs.

[JPnoodleman]

18. A vote for Hillary....

May have some benefit, in not being Cruz or Rubio, but I don't know for sure I won't have the same things happen. Hillary Clinton may easily "compromise," any values away.

She has said no to even the basics of a Progressive political policy package.

[JudyM]

21. Whoa, you've got some schooling to do.

[Recursion]

23. See, this is just ridiculous

This is a caricature of a liberal viewpoint.

[olddots]

16. now that we've gotten this put of the way

who wants soup ?

[Recursion]

24. mulligatawny, please (nt)

[grasswire]

27. How is the mulligatawny there?

I make a pretty good pot of it myself, and love it.

[Recursion]

30. It's really good in Chennai and Sri Lanka

On this side of India it's pretty much the same as I've had in the states. I think they use mace instead of nutmeg in Tamil Nadu, which makes a huge difference.

[Agnosticsherbet]

19. Nobody needs to ask me. I will support the nominee

Because whoever wins will be the best choice in the General Election.

The primary is about deciding who the majority think is the best candidate.

The general is choosing the best government from the choices we are given.

[winter is coming]

22. The same thing I plan to do no matter who the nominee is.

Vote my conscience.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

25. I will accept that as his opinion.

And, vote for the most progressive candidate on the ballot.

[CBGLuthier]

26. Same thing. I will not vote for her. I just won't vote for that office.

I am getting too old to settle for something I don't care for.

[NanceGreggs]

29. Not votng for HRC if she is the nominee ...

... means giving the GOP one less vote they have to overcome to win.

So I guess I can assume that a Republican president is what you are willing to settle for?

[CBGLuthier]

31. I will not vote for her. Period.

[NanceGreggs]

33. That's fine.

Somehow I think the Democratic Party will soldier on without you.

[CBGLuthier]

34. Yep, me too.

It really doesn't matter because I vote in Oklahoma. I have never in my life had my vote for president count. Never.

[NanceGreggs]

35. So it's all good then.

"Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton wins the presidency - despite CBGLuthier's refusal to vote for her. Film at eleven."

[CBGLuthier]

39. Jeez, you asked, I answered. Don't have to get snotty about it.

[NanceGreggs]

40. Oooh, didn't mean to come off as snotty.

Does my snottiness mean you won't be voting for the (D) in November? Or had that been your intention all along?

[CBGLuthier]

41. I look forward to voting for Bernie Sanders. I have never voted for a republican in my life.

I will not vote for someone I consider unfit for office. Sorry, if my having principles bugs the shit out of you. Actually, no, I'm not sorry.

[NanceGreggs]

42. There is nothing "principled" ...

... about giving a Republican the edge - even if it's by one vote that isn't cast for the Democrat.

It's not your "principles" that bugs the shit out of me - it's your obvious lack thereof.

[CBGLuthier]

43. The last time Oklahoma voted for a democrat it was LBJ.

My vote for president genuinely does not count.

I don't understand why you are attacking me and calling me names. Is that how Hillary supporters behave? Uggh.

Oh well, I have had enough of this tiresome conversation.

[NanceGreggs]

44. Attacking you and calling you names?

You are aware that people can actually read our exchange, and realize I've done neither?

[applegrove]

28. I will give my all to whomever the people choose on the Democratic

side.

[Behind the Aegis]

32. Agreed.

I'll vote like my marriage is on the line....oh wait, it is!

[NanceGreggs]

38. And the Thread Winner Award goes to ...

Well said!

[cali]

37. It's not a question of what I or people in my demographic, will do

it's a question of what millions of enthused voters under the age of 35 will do.

[NoJacketRequired]

45. Less people voting = Republican presidency

By not voting, you might as well vote for whoever the crazies on the Republican Party nominate.

Republicans THRIVE when there's a significant amount of voter apathy.

It's easy to throw a temper tantrum if your dream candidate isn't nominated when you're not one of the groups of people on the Republicans chopping block.

[bowens43]

46. I will not vote hillary under any circumstances.

if its hill, for the first time since 1976 I will not be casting a vote for president

[NurseJackie]

47. I'm voting for Hillary because I'm practical.

If by some miracle Bernie happened to become the nominee, I'd vote for him for the same reason. Contrary to the examples viewed here and elsewhere, it actually IS possible to love one candidate without hating the other.
