they called me a "purist." Vermont, according to this data from 2012, is the most rural state in the nation. Rural people keep guns. It doesn't surprise me that Sanders represents his constituents. My state is ranked well below Vermont at 28th, but I live and work rurally, and guns are simply tools in the lives of my community. FWIW, I've never owned a gun, but I understand those in my community who do.

When I told Obama supporters in '08 that I couldn't support him, not on one issue but most, they called me a "purist."

I've never expected to be aligned 100% with any candidate, although that test that's been floating around put me at 99% with Sanders. That's about as pure as it gets. Despite the claims of some DUers, there's really no such thing as a political purist.
