[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I sense that some of the Hillary supporters are worried that Bernie Sanders may have some effect on the Democratic Party platform. Is this the real problem? I just don't get the vitriol for BS at this point in the campaign?? It makes no sense.

No, I have no problem with his platform. In fact, I like it. I have a problem with the way he and his campaign have behaved lately (see prior post)

You mean behaving like he might win?  Like he's still running?  This is sort of to be expected, don't you think?

No. When your plan is to sway superdelegates to win if you didn't win the popular vote. When you imply the votes of the people in the South do not matter. When you fuck up and access info you were not supposed to have and then turn around and play the victim. When you insinuate that black people do not know what's good for them. There's a lot of tone deafness in that campaign. And while you may not have a problem with all that, believe me, there are plenty of people who do. [/quote]

I like your high standards of ethical behavior.  I would recommend you take a look at all the candidates again with the same level of scrutiny, and that you look again at the DNC and its internal machinations during this primary season.  Sanders really does come off pretty good in the ethics, transparency, and values departments, I believe.  But if you've made up your mind, well, that's fine.  That's what we do as voters--consider and decide.  Hopefully with full, unbiased information.

I'll sign off with these thoughts:

Sanders is not your enemy. Keep your eye on Clinton and the Dems in this election and after the general, once / if she takes office.  We'll check back here in about a year, eh?  [/quote]
