I’m warning you in advance: Some of this is going to piss off a bunch of you, and for the right reasons, not the wrong ones. My ask of you as you read this is simple. I like both of our candidates and have given this a lot of thought. I have read multiple diaries on this site, and you did impact my decision (but more on that later).

This is a reasoned, logical and thoughtful decision, based on my age and experience, my knowledge of history, and the fact that I know both of these candidates and who they truly are, and what they have done. I’ve been watching them for a long, long time. I picked Barack Obama in 2008, and I did it the same way. That certainly didn’t mean that I didn’t trust or didn’t like Hillary Clinton then. And my choice of Hillary Clinton certainly doesn’t mean that I don’t trust or don’t like Bernie Sanders. I just think he is the wrong choice.

So here it goes:

​Priorities: ​The priority is not ​get the most progressive (or liberal) President possible. The priority is to defeat this particular group of Republicans so badly that they become a true minority — because only a true minority will be the spanking they deserve for being not just a party we disagree with, not just a political machine hell-bent on rolling back hard fought for gains, but today a political group the is actually crypto-fascist and dangerous to our democracy.
