Are there really people on DU who won't vote for the Democratic candidate if

51. I once had that bullshit saying thrown at me

when I questioned why a brand-new map of our hospital showed room assignments that were more than two years old. And in politics, people often throw that out to justify the status quo.

It's not asking for perfection to ask that every single person in this country be able to get basic health care. It's not even good that some 30 million people still don't have any health care.

It's not asking for perfection to ask that those who brought about the economic collapse seven years ago be jailed for what they did. It's not even good that they are still out there, fleecing millions, and enriching themselves in the process.

It's not asking for perfection that those who work earn enough money to support themselves, and perhaps a spouse and a kid or two. It's not at all good that the richest among us pay the lowest taxes and constantly clamor for a roll-back in the minimum wage, Social Security, and disability payments. It's downright evil that those richest cheerfully cut funding for Veteran's care.

Bernie isn't perfect, but Hillary is far enough from good to make me think a lot more than twice about voting for her in the general election.
