31. I think using bullying tactics online and offline are hurting their revolution in a big way.

Bernie would have been better served to tell those nasty bullies on his team to stand down, tell them STRONGLY it would not be tolerated. I have a friend who was bullied online and on the phone after she posted something anti BS on facebook. It was the most terrible thing, it has just this week begun to calm down a bit, but they have said "they know where she lives and works". It was reported to the police.

Some of his supporters are not nice people and they are the most out front for his candidacy. Then there is the young man I talk about in another post above who came to my door, very respectful. The bullies are the problem.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
