31. Lack of unity efforts on one side?

You absolutely have to be kidding me!

Where are the Hillary supporters saying something like, don't worry, we're with you on Progressive issues. We believe Hillary will stick with those. We'll help keep her honest on those.

Well, they're nowhere, probably because they don't believe either that it can be done. Or perhaps they just don't care about those things. Or perhaps they just don't care about those people - probably a bigger problem.

Listen, you don't know what can be done till you try. A fundamental life lesson. But if you aim for the shit, you're going to get the shit, or worse. If you aim higher, you may not reach the highest rungs (or you very well may!!! - witness any underdog sports team) but at least you will likely rise higher and get better than if you didn't try.
