2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Bernie Supporters - Please read my post [View all]bravenak
(34,648 posts)That is what I was trying to do. Help the logically inclined understand the emotions behind the decisions and help understand my community better.
I feel that as a person who is and introvert (infp to be exact) I have this weird thing about me that helps me place myself into people's skins, if you know what I mean. I read Alot, I have also lived in so e of the shittiest circumstances, lived in ways that most here would see as a nightmare, but for me it was just life. I understand the poor. I understand the oppressed. I have undocumented people in my family. There are so many emotions there that I just cannot express them all.
And yes, I see voting as a thing that MOST of us do emotionally; good or bad, we are human. We like appreals to our better natures, striving for excellence, being respected and cared for and listened to, we all do. Maybe this can be a way to start a conversation among Bernie's supporters that can help them use their energy to get votes for their candidate. I hope so, anyway.
