18. Look, I've been a Democrat my whole adult life

If Bernie has his say at the convention and endorses Hillary Clinton, that will be good enough for me. I was for Hillary before Bernie threw his hat into the ring and she is not the horrible person everyone says she is. Sure she has her faults and baggage, but she is a damned far better candidate than having Donald Trump as POTUS! Or any rethuglican for that matter.

If she were to chose Bernie as her running mate, I would be over the hill with joy and campaign for her with my whole heart!
