This is not at all true, lets look at the posts...

He admits on day two he was not a Bernie supporter
And this seems to be the post that got the person blocked, not what he stated at all

New Hillary supporter
I came to DU a month ago, wanting to connect with other Bernie supporters. Instead, I found a group of insecure, mean, close-minded people who don't realize the value of civil discourse and courteous discussion of the issues that we are all concerned with as Democrats. I hate to say it, but I believe that the BS wing of the party really seems like a cult. I just can't blindly follow their circular logic anymore. I even got banned from their group for suggesting that the attacks on fellow Dems be toned down.
When it comes time to vote in the California primary, my vote will go to Hillary...and I will do my best to convince other's to support her as well.

Loved the video of her playing Dominos! For the first time it made me want to meet a candidate. nt

He looks very rich from my point of view..
It does make it harder for the middle and lower classes to feel a kinship.

Day two
I have no problem with the Sanders/Pope meeting, but if he wants my vote
He will have to develop some sort of faith. It just seems empty (and even pandering) that an avowed agnostic is touting a visit with the head of a church he was not raised in, or seemingly has any connections. I could never vote for a candidate who does not think that some divine intervention is needed in such a powerful job.
Before anyone bashes me, I dont yet firmly support either candidate. I have been going back and forth between the two my state doesnt vote until June. There are great things about both, and things I really dont like about both but the faith issue with Sanders really bothers me. And honestly, a connection with the Catholic church doesn't really fly. Why pick the most oppressive, wealthiest, and corrupt of all?
