While I do not agree with some of your points, I appreciate that you took the time to communicate them. It can be hard to find balance on DU:GDP these days ......so it is important to me to reflect on other people's concerns and points of view.

It is an ugly primary contest. The growing fractures reminds me of 1968. And not in a good way.

From my perspective, the behavior of the Clinton campaign (independent from the candidate) is troubling. But obviously there are, for example, OP/threads here with toxic contributions from both sides. Hence, each side see's the other's misdeeds. Yet, there are also civil discussions on DU:GDP, as well. Those are the ones that interest me.
