I blame the DNC. THREE YEARS they had to stop what might happen again (contested convention/Bernie as victim-“rigging”-purity tests- bomb throwing- discord). Three years they could have fully vetted Bernie Sanders, or illuminate his inconsistencies -with all of the information out there, and yet here we are again.

Everytime the party starts building momentum, coming together for the greater good, building excitiement...there’s Bernie. Waiting in the wings for some excuse or perceived slight to go scorched earth with our wounded candidate heading into the general. Three years—-they should have stopped this a long time ago, and even now, they allow it to persist...the implication to me has always been that if Bernie feels he was “done wrong” or his feelings or ego is hurt, he’ll go 3rd party. I also blame the person who allowed him to change from I to D and run as a Democrat in the first place.

4 more years of Trump? Goodbye planet earth

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