In reply to the discussion: I Truly Believe That There Are People Who Will Not Vote for Hillary Clinton [View all]Tarheel_Dem
(31,454 posts)81. I think many assume these posters actually vote for Democrats. I've never made that assumption.
People can take on many identities on the internet, meanwhile in the real world.......
Massive Millennial Poll
Young people will hit the polls in 2016, and they want Hillary
by Brett LoGiurato
Young Democrats across all demographics pick Clinton to be the partys next nominee, according to the survey. More than half 57 percent of the Democrats surveyed prefer Clinton, compared with 10 percent who choose Vice President Joe Biden and another 10 percent who want Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren. At 19 percent, a large chunk are still undecided.

But when the self-identified independents were pressed further, half of those surveyed at least leaned toward identifying with the Democratic Party. Thirty-five percent, meanwhile, leaned more toward the GOP.

And if the election were held today, 48 percent would choose a generic Democratic candidate, compared with 35 percent who would pick the Republican nominee.

Considering the above, expect a ton of $$$$$ to be spent on "social media" sites like this to change that reality. You Better Believe It!

I think many assume these posters actually vote for Democrats. I've never made that assumption.

Nice callout. If you want my vote, you're going to have to select someone worth voting for.

No one said anything about the presidential run, the primary run is what this poster is talking

All the OP's on this reinforce my belief that the goal of both parties is a Republican in 2016.

You're arguing a strawman and avoiding the actual content of my post.
