Don't let Justin Trudeau's boyish looks fool you. He's a secret masochist and wants another four years of insults.
I would hope that the majority of DU users would understand how close Canada is with the USA, both culturally, economically, major religion, a democratic political system. And we are each others largest trading partners. And realize how invested Canadians are in the political results there. Also that many hopefully realize that this is a global fight. Trump is a huge boil on the world. But someone else will replace him who is just as evil, greedy, and destructive, even if they are smart enough not to look an idiot. There is a right wing authoritarian wave sweeping the globe. I will not sit by silently while this happens without at least being able to vent about it in a message board that represents the party that has the best chance to defeat this in the closest other country to me, and be intimidated from sharing my concerns simply because I don't have the right birth certificate.
I honestly have never seen a Bernie supporter use another candidate sig for that reason. I'll take your word for it though. Sanders supporters are among the smartest.
Part of why I haven't put any choice under me is precisely because I can't vote there. But it is how DU admin has set it up. So if I continue "undecided" I get called out for not deciding, which has happened. And I look like I'm doing a similar thing as you and Nurse Jackie are doing, by pretending to not endorse anyone but really going for Sanders. (Who by now one could guess would be my choice for your President) I want to support Sanders still, even if not by voting. I can still donate. I can still push his message on this and other social media sites. Because a Sanders, or Warren, administration would be good for the US, for Canada, and for the world.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
