It's time Bernie...

[LP2K12]

We've supported you and your campaign for months.

You've fought hard for America and your supporters.

Now is the time to unite and ensure Trump and the GOP don't win.

Now is the time to come together.

Bernie, please boldly declare, "I'm with her!"

1. Is it July 25th 2016 ALREADY?!?!?

[JoePhilly]

2. He can take a few days I think ... there is no rush.

[MohRokTah]

6. He can turn me around on my respect for him if he backs off by no later than June 16.

Until then I have zero respect for him.

After June 16, he can do nothing to win me back to favoring him and my personal policy will be any candidate would be better than Sanders in 2018.

[JoePhilly]

14. I'd disagree some.

June 16th ... yup, agree.

Past that, it depends on what he does to help Hillary beat Trump.

Hillary has provided the model. She placed Obama's name into the nomination at the convention, and she campaigned hard for him. Then took the SoS position.

Bernie has some choices to make. He can help her win AND at the same time, continue to move the "movement" forward. The better Hillary does, the more opportunities we all have to achieve more of the goals we all share.

I think Hillary will reach out to Bernie, just as Obama reached out to Hillary. How Bernie responds remains to be seen.

[John Poet]

20. Oh, I'm SURE Bernie will think that is the MOST

IMPORTANT THING--- to earn back the "respect" of some online Hill-Bully,
by the date they demand.

[MadBadger]

7. I have no issue with him holding off until after DC

[JoePhilly]

12. I agree.

[RichGirl]

23. I supported Hillary in 2008.

It is hard to lose and you need a mourning period of sorts. But once I got on the Obama bandwagon I never looked back.

3. I'm glad I am not the only Bernie supporter who feels this way

I'm heartbroken and have spent many days crying during this primary season (despite promising myself not to get too invested so I wouldn't get my heart broken), but I agree that it's time, or at least, it will be after the polls close in California, regardless of the result. I am proud to have been a part of this campaign, but I want to see Bernie go out on a high note and maximize his influence and ability to continue leading a movement, not become a joke who didn't know how to quit like Dennis Kucinich.

[LP2K12]

5. Agreed.

It has been a campaign to be proud of.

[Lizzie Poppet]

4. Don't even THINK about it, Bernie.

Hillary: not even once.

[bettyellen]

9. Going to stay up to hear him speak in three hours?

[bigwillq]

8. It might happen tonight. Maybe not.

If it's not tonight, it will be soon. That's fine by me.

[Trust Buster]

10. I think he feels a moral obligation to campaign in Washington D.C. but all the other considerations

will start to happen.

[democrattotheend]

18. You could be right

If that is the case I will respect him a lot for it, especially since he is unlikely to do very well there.

But I don't see any point in continuing to openly campaign against Hillary after everyone has voted.

[Trust Buster]

19. His campaign announced tonight that he will return to Vermont in the morning but travel onto

D.C. to honor his commitments. Theses rally's are scheduled weeks ahead of time.

[democrattotheend]

21. I didn't know that

But I am very glad to hear it. The voters of DC have been ignored and marginalized since the founding of this country. I am glad to see Bernie give them some attention even if it won't make a difference in whether he gets the nomination.

[Trust Buster]

22. I heard Weaver put it this way on television today; (I paraphrase) D.C. is not counted when it

comes to voting for Senators. They deserve to be counted in the primaries.

[mac56]

11. This is insulting.

[LP2K12]

13. I'm sorry.

My intention was not to insult anybody.

[mac56]

15. I'll believe you

but to superimpose Sanders' image on the Hillary logo is quite over the top.

[Hiraeth]

16. I don't and the logo is why.

I will trash thread instead of Ignore.

[RobertEarl]

17. No way

He's in it all the way. It would be best for ex-supporters of Bernie to just sit back and relax and let the rest of us, and Bernie, soldier on without yall. Defeatism is not in our best interest.

Quitting now just kowtows to the establishment that promises ultimate destruction to the America we need.

Never give up.

[Txbluedog]

24. As long as he stops bashing the democratic nominee

He can take as long as he wants

[onecaliberal]

26. Fuck no! Get that trash off his photo.

[ucrdem]

28. He hasn't spoken out in SaMo yet . . . he might.
