196. The fact is I don't hate on people who might need to win a GE, that's the fact.

That goes for Bernie, Hillary, or even O'Malley.

We are going down memory lane here... But I lived in VT for about 10 years and I have actually had the pleasure of volunteering, voting for, and meeting Semator Sanders more than once. He even came and spoke at a meeting we had on campus when I was attending school there, it was really cool and I learned a lot.

I know it's apparently "fun" to think everyone has an ulterior motive, but some of us don't. Some of us just post here, and have no connections outside DU on Facebook or alternate websites... We are just here and yet we get cast as having ridiculous motives with every post we make.

It's fine clearly if I could handle the name calling, or mocking, or accusations of month long webs of lies, I wouldn't be here. But I can, so here I am, still.

So Murder by Wealthy Political Donors is a FUCKING JOKE to Hillary supporters...?!?! berni_mccoy Dec 2015 #4

GOP is working day and night, here at DU and elsewhere, to convince people not to vote. randys1 Dec 2015 #134

You are SO correct. It's shameful that this RWNJ OP piece is allowed to stand after alert, by 4-3. BlueCaliDem Dec 2015 #145

The completely absurd deal is that a pro Hillary poster can be silenced as often as some randys1 Dec 2015 #148

Yes, I know that - and know it personally. BlueCaliDem Dec 2015 #158

I've seen more pro-Bernie posters silenced. Fawke Em Dec 2015 #162

That is ludicrous on the face of it. randys1 Dec 2015 #163

Oh please! You are in the majority here. We are not. hrmjustin Dec 2015 #165
