In reply to the discussion: Jane Sanders: We're Going To Hold Clinton Accountable After Endorsing Her [View all]athena
(4,187 posts)My feelings almost exactly. My views are also more in line with Bernie's, but I've been a Hillary supporter since close to the beginning. Not only because she's more electable, but also because she is so much better than the lies we've all been fed. One just has to read a couple of articles about her, or listen to Bill Clinton's DNC speech, to realize that she's a good person who really cares and wants to make the world a better place.
Despite the disruptions and the infighting, I believe that Bernie's candidacy has in the end made Hillary stronger. This is what my brilliant husband had predicted, but I hadn't agreed. Now, though, I have to admit that Hillary would not have been able to go so far left without Bernie's candidacy and all the support Bernie received. (I do happen to believe that many* of Bernie's supporters were against Hillary due to misogyny, but despite their hatred, their efforts only made Hillary stronger.)
* "many"; not "all", and possibly not even "most".
