I voted for the guy in my state caucus but its over, let it go. I like his ideas too but he isn't Super Jesus here to save the world from evil. Nobody stole millions of votes from him or hundreds of delegates. There isn't going to be some bombshell Clinton arrest or leaked transcripts of Clinton telling a room full of bankers that she will gladly take bribes from them. He lost, that is what happens in a democracy. You don't win every time. Not everyone gets a trophy. Not everything is a vast conspiracy. Not everyone is ready to light the world on fire when every little thing doesn't go their way.
Don't expect that everyone is going to kiss your ass forever to get your vote. There are a lot of people in this country with a lot of view points, don't think you are deserving of extra special attention. If you are saying "Bernie or Bust" then your option is bust at this point. He isn't going to be president. Not through yelling at superdelegates, not by threatening to riot like '68 at the convention, not by writing in his name in November. He lost, it sucks, but he had his chance, stop trying to shove him down the throats of the people that didn't want him as the nominee.
