11. Here's one I'm sure to get a hide on from the alert stalkers:

I have been a Dem since 1972. I have worked blue collar jobs, white collar jobs, you name it. I was a member of the Teamsters when I drove a forklift in a warehouse in Ohio.

I am firmly in the Hillary camp. Sanders is a joke, He no more understands blue collar workers than he does "voters in the deep south," as he disparagingly calls PoC.

Don't flatter yourself by thinking for a moment that you understand the working man, or that Sanders does either. There are a lot of us out here who have been doing politics for well over 40 years, and we're not impressed by a bunch of independent voters - or a Senator, for that matter - who can't be bothered to COMMIT to the Democratic Party, but who for some reason feel entitled to tell we lifelong Democrats who best represents our interests, just because they as an "independent" finally decided to get off their asses and vote for the first time in their lives.
