In reply to the discussion: I want to thank Bernie Sanders [View all]LiberalLovinLug

When you think about it, its Sanders supporters that should be holding grudges. But we take our lead from Sanders who steadfastly refuses to go personal.
It was Sanders, and his supporters, that should have been angry at what was revealed in those leaked DNC emails. And more butt-hurt because WE LOST. Then Sanders implored his supporters to vote Hillary, and campaigned for her, and we all got behind Hillary and it was up to her campaign to win the Rust Belt States, not Sanders. His supporters, who also believe Sanders would have prevented this whole Trump nightmare if he'd run, should be the ones that are angry.
Bizzare.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

Nothing came after... not much anyway. Just a long long long period of silence.

Yeah, but apparently Bernie's 40+ campaign appearances on behalf of Hillary wasn't good enough.

Sanders doesn't have to go personal, he has Turner/Gray/Sirota/West/Sarandon doing it for him.

That's not true, Clinton LOTS more than 12 for Obama. In fact, a day or two after the convention...

Thanks for posting. Your video of Sanders at the convention proves the point.

He left the Convention before it was over and didn't show up again until Labor Day.

Just a little reminder as to what started all of this bickering in the first place
