I swear...if Michelle Obama is shown disrespect tonight calling for unity I'm gonna lose it.

That could really set off something ugly in that convention that I don't want to see. I get it that Bernie's supporters are passionate but this is doing so much harm right now. If you truly believe you have started a revolution then you continue the fight. Bernie didn't win but he got closer than anyone thought he would. It doesn't end here. Its just the beginning but this nomination fight stuff should be over. Hillary won the nomination but Bernie folks should continue to elect progressives and organize in a grass roots kind of way to really implement the change they want to see. This shit I'm seeing right now is horrible optics. Someone I just saw interviewed said that 4 years of Trump is better than 8 years of a Democrat. REALLY?!!!!!
