Sanders seems like an open minded dude, one who can handle the harshest of criticism.

I cant imagine him wanting even his harshest critics silenced or censored. Anyone disagred. I will hapilly work and vote for him if he wins the primary.

1. Bernie would be stunned to find out supporters like myself have been banned from his group

because I insisted that people on DU stop using democRAT instead of democratic.

He would be stunned to find out many of his supporters on DU will TARGET and FOLLOW people who want to discuss his ability or inability to address the issues of the AfAm community.

He would want to know how to do better, not attack those bringing it up.

3. Sanders in on record that he likes Clinton and, if she wins the nomination, will support her.

I do not support any candidate at the moment. At this point in my life, I consider throwing in with a candidate equivalent to putting on blinders.

If he wins the nomination and the General, he will make a good President.

10. DU rules must be followed in all forums, even protected groups. Check the rules.

You can't just go to a protected group and expect to be allowed to be a jackass there.

Those were your words. You asked, demanded even, to be blocked. Don't try to play the martyr and paint the Sanders group as the bad guys.
