We can disagree on our choice of candidates and debate the issues vigorously, but we should never allow any candidate to be prevented from speaking. I would speak up for Hillary if this ever happened to her.

Let me just say that I'm for Bernie, but I celebrate that he won't attack Hillary, and I never will either. I want her favorables high and unfavorables low.

Attack the Bushes.

That is kind of you to say, and I, for one, would say the same with regard to Hillary if she were treated this way.

be more than happy to enthusiastically support her in the general. I may even support her in the primaries.

But the fact that some of her more belligerent supporters have decided all of a sudden that physically preventing a democratic candidate from giving a scheduled speech is okay, allegedly because of some litany of self-serving psychobabble bullshit (that really shakes out to "it's Sanders, who dares to challenge the inevitable one&quot when it's patently obvious they would lose their shit if someone pulled that exact same crap with Hillary Clinton- it's hypocritical.

I really appreciate your OP, because you are stating the obvious and making a fair and decent point. What was done to Bernie Sanders was not okay, it wouldn't be okay with Hillary Clinton, we all should be able to condemn that sort of obnoxious, bullying bullshit for what it is.
