Now is the time to say that so that we do not end up with her as the nominee. We've had enough corporatism from the current president and I honestly do not think the country, or the world, can take another term of that sort.
If we say now that we will support her if she is the nominee then we've already given up and TPTB will know that they can get her into power. Only by saying "no" now will they even possibly stop to consider that maybe they need to slow it down, lessen the greed, and maybe think twice about global corporate domination.
We have to let TPTB know that if we have the choice of two corporate presidents in the main parties we will vote for neither. Otherwise that's exactly what we'll get.
I'm all for supporting the Democratic candidate, but they need to support me by supporting the Democratic Party's principles in return, or rather, first.
