HIGHEST RECOMMENDED KOS DIARY: "Dear Hillary Clinton supporters"

[NNadir]

232. No I don't.

I'm a person. Senator Sanders doesn't represent me.

If he's the nominee, I'm going to have a hard time pulling the lever for him, to be honest. I mean the guy voted against the Brady Bill?

I also find the representation that every corporation is the enemy of the people rather puerile as well.

"Corporatist" around here is a curse word, as if there is some socialist nirvana somewhere. Where exactly is it?

It's very easy to say what one doesn't approve of, but how does one say what should replace it? Suppose we pick on, say, General Motors, and they shut their doors here and move to Singapore where nobody gives them any shit. What's the Sanders plan for replacing those jobs? Tea shops in Michigan? Organic farms?

There were no corporations in the Soviet Union, but to be perfectly frank, Stalin was worse than any CEO anywhere at any time.

You don't want fracked gas, but you're in favor of wind power? What happens on a cold dark still night? Burn trees ripped out of the national forests to make access roads to wind turbines?

I think President Obama came into office with high expectations - expectations I shared. Did he have the power to do what he wanted to do? How will Senator Sanders deal with a Republican Congress? Better than Obama?

Part of me wants to vote for the Ghost of Glenn Seaborg in the coming Presidential election - I'm so demoralized by the stupidity and ignorance on both extremes of both parties. I've been a lifelong Democrat but the invention of blogging has left me demoralized as I realize that in many ways my party is as clueless as theirs.

If it's any consolation, I have a nagging fear though, that the neo-Nazi is going to get the Repuke nomination, and in the off chance that Mr. Sanders is his opponent, I will surely end up doing what I am increasingly called upon to do - and I've never missed an election in my overly long life - and vote for the "lesser of two evils."

And to be sure, for me at least, that's the best Senator Sanders can do for me, be "the lesser of two evils." I realize I'm just one member of that generalized collective you call "the people," and maybe someone here will announce that I'm an evil corporatist fascist, but that's how I feel.

Good luck to you and your candidate.

Have a nice day tomorrow.
