In reply to the discussion: I'm curious: What is your end game with Bernie? [View all]FlaGranny
(8,361 posts)I am an old-time Democrat and I will continue fighting for democratic values and those are the values of Bernie Sanders and not the new Democrats. I have been voting for Democrats for over 50 years, but recently Democrats, as in the establishment Democrats, reflect Democratic values less and less until they no longer should really call themselves Democrats. They have more in common with Eisenhower and Nixon than they do FDR.
Will I vote for Hillary? Yes, I will, but I will not be happy about it. The very thought of it makes me sick to my stomach. Makes me sick to my stomach the way this country has reverted more and more to the values wealthy oligarchs. The only thing that gives me any hope this country will come out of this "little dark ages" is that 52% of the voting public say they would vote for Bernie. That should put fear into some hearts.
