(15,435 posts)exploited by the DLC'ers/Third Way people! How they come to this decision is quite obviously a means to attack him as some sort of "whacko" which couldn't be further from the truth. THEY must know this and IF THEY DON'T then I'm left scratching my head as to HOW or WHY they could possibly see it this way. If one spends anytime listening to Bernie's message it's quite easy to see a VAST difference in Trump's message which is full venom and fluff and so different from Bernie's
IMO, should Bernie reach one of his followers it can only mean that they've been able to see a different reality while still not wanting to vote for the status quo. Bernie's message is FOR THE PEOPLE and inclusion, and TRUMP... well we know.
All I can hope for from the bottom of my heart and soul is that the people of this country WAKE UP and take a hard look at how far we've fallen and where we are headed if we can't stop the present Oligarchs from becoming something much worse!
This is just how I feel and what I will fight for. I've SEEN and KNOWN a different Democratic Party than many here I suppose. I simply can't cross over and fall on my sword because to me it's just moving the way those at the top want me to move. I WON'T GO!
