I'm beginning to believe that some of the people would vote Stein, even if Bernie was the candidate

I was reading through some comments on Bernie's FaceBook page and wow - it is kind of scary. It seems obvious, to me, that they don't have any trust in his judgment because they aren't listening to what he has said. So why are they still screaming his name?

Time for a strong adult beverage.

1. They want control of a party-Sanders was their vessel until he wasn't.

3. It is just so disheartening.

And Sanders did get a massive input into the party platform. They all seem to be 'all or nothing', and that's just not how politics works.

I'm getting too old for this..................

5. And that part is ok but expecting to run a revolution thru the Dem's-no

2. As soon as he aligned with President Obama they would have called him a traitor.

4. yup

6. There's a certain number of toxic radicals that get attracted to popular movements

They're parasitic, and make things difficult for the majority of people who are doing the hard work. Part of the reason I dislike direct action and protests in general is that these things tend to particularly attract these types of people.

It's also part of the reason why activities that lock out the average working person is so self-defeating. Most people can't take off a week to go to Philadelphia for a political convention. So 90% of Sanders supporters might support Clinton now, but you're not getting a cross section of Sanders supporters - you're getting the people who are able to and motivated enough to go.

Oh, and I'm almost certain Stein would still be running if Sanders had won the nomination. All of the stuff about having him be the Green party candidate was just a play for his supporters.

8. And I figure a number of the people posting are really trump trolls

If you challenge what they are writing, they have no response because critical thinking isn't in their script.
