Enough of this Bernie isn't a Democrat crap. We need to unite with Democrats and Independents to save our country from the party trying to destroy it all.
You said it... United we stand, divided we fall.

That's all they have... don't people realize Bernie gives us the best of both worlds, fighting for Democratic values, while appealing to independent-minded thinkers as well?

Yes, Bernie is someone we should be able to unite around in fighting the racist policies of the Fuhrer-Elect.
