And with her Awsomeness going to the Bush donors...well, I rest my case.

Same for Bernie...hasn't changed much...and I support what he has believed in for decades. He may not have been a Democrat...truly, I'm not sure what that means anymore. It's not the Party I joined in the 70s. But Party affiliation Does Not Matter when it comes to ethics and a consistent record and a plan for the future.

So, Democrat or Independent...it's Bernie for me!!!
