In reply to the discussion: How the Hell We Got Here: Why the Democratic Party is Splitting [View all]timdog44
(1,388 posts)The Democratic party has always been a party of different opinions. This year we have two potential candidates who are strong leaders of those different opinions. In the end we always come together. Not always happy with who is the official candidate but we come in to support that candidate. We still time to go before that candidate is chosen. There are still over 930 delegates to be chosen and in a democracy, we can not just throw them away because someone thinks the whole thing is locked up. We may just as well not have primaries in those states that are left to have their primary. Lets get real. And if there is a close race, so be it. That is the way it should be. "Disunity could actually put Donald Trump in the White House." How the hell did you get there?
It is time to look at the republican candidate and see how dysfunctional he is. How the hell did they get there? I'll tell you. A candidate who will say and do anything because he has no ethics or morals. People, at least a lot of them, will soon realize what they have on their hands.
I am proud of the primary season for the Democratic party this year. Real choices showing up. But not enough to stop a coalescence in the end.
