(45,850 posts)you are an official Democratic party precinct chair in the city in which you reside, it says so in your sig line, as has been pointed out repeatedly here Hillary has the backing of elected office holding party officials, as part of the official machinery of the Democratic Party that your support would go to anyone else is nearly unthinkable
most if not all of us who do support Bernie Sanders are what is called rank and file, we hold no position within the party we however are the ones who vote for it and this is IMO the crux of the Bernie vs Hillary squabble it is those of us who are tired of the status quo and the third way, which has depleting the future of the working and middle classes for 35 years , in short Bernie is seen as the possibility change and Hillary as more of the same, much like 2008
