26. It helps if you remember Hillary is not the enemy.

She might be too cozy with the enemy. But, I think that Bernie is helping her to realize that. She talks a lot like Elizabeth Warren these days.

Try to focus more on supporting Bernie. Don't engage with Hillary supporters if you can't say something nice. There is almost always something nice to say. Take advantage of the fact that you can type a message and read it a few times before hitting the enter button so it's a lot easier to avoid the real life foot in mouth disease that I have. There really is a lot of information on Bernie out there you could work on being a Bernie expert that way when someone says Bernie hasn't said how he is paying for his plans, you can gently correct them or not so gently I guess it's your choice. It's still better than being all attacky on Hillary and the people who are rooting for her.
