unlike Clintonites, Sanders supporters aren't zombie followers that agree with anything he says, even contradictory crap. I don't agree with everything he says and if he's on the ticket I STILL wouldn't vote for her, nor would most Sanders supporters, because she'd simply shut him out... She hired the owner of one of DC's biggest lobbying firms as her campaign chairman; his firm represents people that donated millions to her "Foundation" and who she signed off on billions in weapons deals for... and Saudi Arabia. You think she's gonna close shop because Sanders is her VP?

Because Sanders' supporters don't.

And these AREN'T RW lines... lol. The closest thing to the right-wing in the DNC is Clinton and her supporters... like the USA Today said recently: "Hillary Clinton is the most Nixonian figure in the post-Watergate period."

And that's who you're trying to get elected.
