Precisely I wonder what would happen if a Sanders person went and made a comment on a Clinton board?

Care to guess? I am sorry that Clintonites feel compelled to engage in this sort of taunting and bullying ... But, thinking before you speak is the hallmark of someone who collects their thoughts and responds rather than reacts. Reaction-ary thinking is not the best form of judgement. So, I continue to admire Sanders and am more certain that I am standing behind the best candidate.
