by even thinking about not voting for the Democrat in November.

Maybe we don't get everything we want in this election, but we will survive to fight another day.

The important issue in this election are the Supreme Court appointments and the thousands of other life-time tenure judges appointed by the executive branch. Hillary's appointments won't be much different than Bernie's. Trump's will be dictated by the right wing of the Republican Party. Women's Rights, Voting Rights, Worker's Rights, Civil Rights and Gay Rights will all be at stake and those decisions will stand for more than a generation.

Any progressive who sits on the sidelines in this election, or even worse, contemplates voting for Adolf Trump, will be making the biggest mistake in their entire political life.
