(21,115 posts)The one candidate in the Primary who proudly proclaimed himself not one even after announcing. I like Bernie....but running in our Primary without becoming one is the one major thing I take issue with him on....so he wants to run in OUR Primary because HE THINKS he can do better (with us)??? Its not JUST about can he win.....its all about how he thinks HE can persuade Congress and Senate better than WE can? I find that to be a weasly stance and have lost lots of respect for him as a result...If HE soooooo needs US and OUR support (and yes our money no doubt about that) Than the least he could do is proudly become one of us....as it is he may not be eligible in at least 2 States as a result. Thats bloody risky right there alone...and THAT is why he would be the absolute last candidate I would support running on this ticket...its like we are being asked to be a mistress not a wife....
