19. It's the BernieBros' black-and-white thinking

They're only attuned to headlines, memes, and soundbites. That's why Sanders' simple platform appeals to them. You know, no big words or complex issues. Thus, they can't comprehend that there can be more than one factor for liking a candidate.

Most of Hillary's supporters (including me and the OP) think she's first and foremost the best candidate (perhaps overqualified, especially when compared to both Trump and Sanders), and we agree with her agenda. Her being a woman and on the verge of making history is just gravy. I'm willing to bet that Boldine didn't actually read kath1's post, just the subject headline, and responded accordingly, making a fool of him-/herself in the process.
