I literally have NO idea what you're on about.

I am not in a position to "obligate" anyone to do anything - just as I am NOT in a position to "get people kicked off this site". Nor have I tried to "obligate" anyone who doesn't support Hillary. Seriously, I don't know where you're getting your ideas from - but they have no basis in fact, nor any basis in what I've said in this thread.

I DO believe that regardless of who the Democratic candidate is in 2016 - HRC, Sanders, O'Malley, or as-yet-to-announce-Democrat - that candidate should be supported. That's because when it comes to the end game, it's going to be a Democrat or a Republican who is elected POTUS.

I am not the least bit interested in your "voting policy" - because it's going to come down to the (D) or the (R), whether you like it or not. And if you think advocating for the (D) over the (R) is "bullying", that's your problem.

"Better to make your appeal on the issues."

You obviously haven't noticed that this particular thread has NOTHING TO DO with the issues or policies of any individual candidate, nor any "appeals" on the basis thereof. Why you insist on arguing with what IS NOT BEING DISCUSSED in this thread is anyone's guess.
