27. It was inevitable that the Hillary Haters were going to gravitate towards

one candidate or the other. Since Warren wasn't an option anymore, they all fell in behind Sanders.

Of course, there are a lot of people (see avatar) who support Sanders because we agree with his policies.

But, the Sanders candidacy is being used as a vehicle by the chronic malcontents, clickbaiters, and internet dick-measuring-contestants.

You can tell the ones who never had the time to advocate for Bernie until it was clear Warren wasn't going to run.

Important to keep the two groups separate.
