New Hillary supporter

18. Thank you. I really have given it more thought than just that, but the craziness was the catalyst.

I don't know what you all think of the Sanders New York Daily News interview, but for me it was a game changer. While I am all for liberal plans that can help equalize our society, it makes no sense to spout big ideas without any prudent method for implementation.

Along these same lines, it seems much more practical to approach change in our current system in a much more incremental way. I really was taken in by Sanders' promises, but then I took a deep breath (spurred on by my dislike for so many of the Bernie people on DU) and realized that his ideas are best held up as an objective to strive for over the course of many (hopefully) Democratic administrations.

Lastly, I have been disappointed with Sanders and his wife for continuously going after Hillary in personal ways after it has become obvious that he cannot win the nomination. If he is truly working for the good of the country, and for the values he supposedly holds dear, he would know that both of those goals depend on Hillary winning in November.
