Why is it so hard for some Hillary supporters to understand that Sander's supporters do not march in lockstep? They aren't like Hillary supporters who change their principles and opinions based on what their candidate says. If we agree with Sanders we say so. If we don't we say that too. Our principles and opinions are our own. NO CANDIDATE will get blind obedience from us. They earn our support.
