(6,991 posts)People were hoping that Bernie would take the low road and say something crazy yesterday during his convention speech, but I never thought he would. I may have lost patience at the end when I was hoping he'd concede. But I knew he would because he cares more about this country and about our party than tRump could ever care about this country--tRump probably cares more about Mother Russia than he does this country which has given HIM so much. I never trashed Bernie or called him crazy because I always KNEW that he was capable of doing what he did today in that last act of true man and humanity for the good of all citizens who are fighting like HELL to keep that clown tRump out of the White House.
Bernie will ALWAYS be more of a MAN than that narcissist, racist, homophobic, misogynistic, nasty orange ass-pimple tRump will EVER be.

(14,626 posts)I grew up in Mass and I vacationed there more than a handful of times. It was so sublime and pristine. I imagine it is still like that.

(135,372 posts)my folks had a vacation house there, but I (and Senator Sanders and his brother) grew up in Brooklyn, and our families migrated from Poland; his mother was from Poland and Russia.
I'd like to return to visit Vermont, as my cousin is doing now!
