Nothing in either of those OPs describe me, yet I have this suspicion they are aimed at Bernie's supporters. That because we have legitimate concerns that we are somehow rancid now and don't understand the complexities of making decisions. That we demand purity from candidates and that we are anti-Obama or anti-Hillary because we bring up legitimate issues. As for Obama I like him I think he is a great president and I would vote for him again. I don't think he is perfect and I would rather have a more liberal president. But, the reality is that there are not very many Bernie Sanders in the world so yes, I realize I must be pragmatic and I would prefer to have the lesser of two evils rather than the greater of two evils, because I remember Reagan and how his presidency has led to so much death and destruction. As for Hillary if she gets the nomination I will cross that bridge when I get to it. I am not going to hide that I am extremely happy to be campaigning for Bernie and I consider him to be the as ideal as it is possible to be and still be human another words he has flaws and I know that.
