28. I agree. That "Savior" meme really rankles me.

 

I support Sanders even though I regard him as a fallible human being and I sometimes disagree with him.

Sanders went from single digits in the polls to getting more than 40% of the vote against a candidate who had the overwhelming support of the party establishment. He did so while being unafraid to use that dreaded "S" word (no, not "savior" that so terrifies most of our elected officials. No fair-minded person can deny that he is, in many ways, an exceptional politician. Nevertheless, to say that his supporters can't think for themselves is just stupid.

I wonder whether that kind of insult will be allowed here after June 20.
