Yes. We're fine. Most Sanders delegates are already with Hillary, Hortensis Jul 2016 #193

Considering Clinton won people making less than 50k a year mythology Jul 2016 #111

I and many people here are in the 99% and would support those running mates. Are all of them kerry-is-my-prez Jul 2016 #141

Why would Sanders supporters think they should have a say in picking the running mate? brush Jul 2016 #169
