While I still honor Bernie, my support now goes to Joe

[Tom Rinaldo]

When I shifted from Warren to Sanders in January, it was not our of any lack of respect for Liz, I just felt then that for whatever reason, she could no longer win the nomination. The same is more than obvious now for Bernie. I am glad that they both still have strong voices in American politics, but our leader going forward now is Joe Biden.

I don't have to agree with Joe !00% in order to support him 100%. I would have done so for any Democrat who won our nomination, though Bloomberg would have been a hard pill for me to swallow. Still, I would have done it. With Joe Biden though I have no such qualms or qualifications.

I am pleased to now support Joe Biden for President. .

You have always been fair and heartfelt in support of Bernie and I appreciate your support of Biden now. Welcome to the team!

4. I am gad to be on the same team now moving forward

2. Tom Rinaldo, thanks for posting this! :)

This is good news for Joe Biden!



Most of us Biden supporters agree with Bernie Sander's goals of better healthcare, more affordable college, and raising taxes to pay for all of the things that we need. We only disagree about the best method to achive those goals.

Thanks for supporting Joe Biden, and welcome to Team Joe Biden!

6. That's American. Thank you.

I love Senator Warren, but, Joe's gotta save us all now.

7. Good way to put it.

8. Admirable attitude and decision-making

We are all having to make compromises in our lives right now, from our very physical movements to our meals and our social interactions. Compromise is always a part of our daily lives, but now magnified a thousand-fold. We can refuse to make these adjustments, or whine and complain about them, or meet them head on with as much acceptance and embrace as we can muster.

As in life, we always must make compromises in our politics. This is probably a big one for you, but you've met it head on, and with good cheer. Thanks.

12. A compromise, true, but a very easy one to make.

I was always ready to unite behind our presumptive nominee, once that person truly became our presumptive nominee. This is nothing new for me, I supported Clark in 2004 and Hillary in 2008, lol. I would have been happy about a President Kerry and I was happy with President Obama. The only person who shares my views exactly is my still non existent clone. I sincerely like Joe Biden which makes it even easier to support him now.

9. Thank you, having switched from Liz

It's a little tough, but in the end, we need to have one another's backs!! Now, on to Trump and fixing the Gopocalypse

[comradebillyboy]

10. Thank you Tim. We must first unite to overcome

the danger to the republic that is Donald Trump. Once that is done we can fruitfully debate the Party's future policies.

11. It Seems, Sir, We Began And Ended At About The Same Place

A toast to the good Professor Warren!

[Tom Rinaldo]

13. LOL. Indeed.

A toast then to the good Professor, whose influence will continue to grow, either as Biden's VP, as a senior member of his cabinet, or as a key figure in a Democratic majority U.S. Senate.

14. Thank you.

There's a special role for the passion and vision of Bernie supporters.

Avengers assemble!

15. You make perfect sense.

16. Good post, thanks, Tom.

I just did the same, and feel much the same.

I really hope he chooses well for VP and I believe the best choice would be Stacey Abrams.. Oh please, may this come true.
