15. I've already made my November decision.

May 2016

And it's none of the above (if Clinton is the nominee).

I will not be a party to driving the Democratic Party further right and I think Trump is a bigoted dumbass.

I'm not struggling with this.

Bernie didn't write the crime bill Fawke Em May 2016 #92
No. He just voted emphatically for it - as did the CBC. It's what the Black community wanted, too. BlueCaliDem May 2016 #96

Sanders is the avowed enemy of the Democratic Party. You're surprised that the DNC doesn't like him? randome May 2016 #38
That's absurd. hellofromreddit May 2016 #45
It's also why he has fewer Congressional endorsements than Ted Cruz. randome May 2016 #48
A resounding lack of endorsements from a despised congress doesn't make him an enemy. hellofromreddit May 2016 #49
I get it. You and Sanders despise everyone else. I'm fine with that. randome May 2016 #57
You've reduced yourself to lying. Not gonna play the straw man game with you. hellofromreddit May 2016 #59

"Not exactly words of a friend." Also not the words of an avowed enemy. hellofromreddit May 2016 #71
If that were true he'd be running as a Third Party spoiler Armstead May 2016 #51
He's spent decades telling the DNC how corrupt they are. randome May 2016 #58

The whole post is full of factual inaccuracies. YouDig May 2016 #63
Perhaps you require an example. A'ight. hellofromreddit May 2016 #67
Your OP said "none of what they said they'd do with it". Clearly incorrect. YouDig May 2016 #68
The literalism game might win you points in a debate class, but I don't care. hellofromreddit May 2016 #72
