He is getting out in front now to win over as many Bernie voters as possible. This is going to be some election and if Bernie doesn't get the nomination than I don't have a dog in the fight. So I know I will be purged from this site soon if Hillary gets the nomination but at that point it isn't really the party of the people anymore anyway so while I will miss some of the headlines I will move on. I voted Bill Clinton twice, Al Gore, John Kerry, and Obama twice. But I can't hold my nose for this one. I care too much for my own integrity.

I'll hang on here until the purge and then wish you all a better tomorrow.

I don't know you and you don't know me. I don't require your approval. The Military Industrial Complex along with the Oligarchs will run the country and the people will get a raw deal whether Donald or Hillary wins. To believe that she will do anything other than serve her cronies is to be delusional.

It is over and I for one would never allow Trump to win...I would vote for Bernie first...and he has irritated the hell out of me. You have a choice. Make the best of it and help save the courts or wallow in self-pity.

Not wallowing. The whole process is very liberating. When it comes down to which candidate is less horrible than I haven't got a dog in that fight. Truth: I think Hillary Clinton will be horrible for the lives of my children and for the nation and the world. I think Donald Clinton will be horrible for the lives of my children and for the nation and the world. Gonna be like the Bush years again. We survived that so hopefully we can survive this. BUT I am on the look out for a Messiah. If a third party candidate throws his or her hat in the ring and the choice is horrible vs horrible vs hope than I choose hope.
