Dear Sanders Supporters [View all]

I love you folks! For months you've been hearing what terrible people you are, but I think your choice of candidate says a lot about you: intelligent, fair, honest, empathetic, forward-thinking progressives, who really desire to make this country a better home for all of us. Keep the faith, tune out the noise, and continue doing what you can to make the good man known as Bernie the next POTUS!
