52. Thank You

I have been reading DU for years and years but stopped posting in the middle of the last primary. I just started posting recently again but am struck by how much attack on Bernie there is. Posts like yours give me some sustanence. I also am 60 year old and a life long democratic voting for politicians I loved and some I held my nose for.

I probably will stop posting because it is tiresome to keep saying to people stop attacking Bernie and start praising your own and defending him against the worst attacks. He is not even my first candidate this year although I love him.

Again, TY for making me feel less alone and there are others that echo my dismay at the state of the dialogue between candidate supporters and add arguments that although defending Bernie are not attacking any other candidate.
