1. They can be banned. Whether that's a good idea I don't know. But I understand.

The high road can get bumpy. I got banned from the Bernie group the first time I posted something there asking not to be attacked for supporting Hillary. So, you know...

That's the very thing that really puts me off his supporters. It's the holier-than-thou attitude that if you even consider voting for Hillary, you're a ____ person (...either a Republican, a Racist, a "fake feminist"...the list goes on and on).

this place should be renamed "bernie sanders". so few hillary supporters and so much hate. i don't believe all the crap they say. it was started by the repubs back in the 90s and the BS people have picked up on it.

the more i listen to her -- the more convinced i am that she is the only candidate who's qualified to be prez.

as a dem i will support bernie if he's the nominee.

you do know that NanceGreggs is my sister, don't you?

I don't even read them.. I just stay in Hillary's Group.. or wander into gdp to K&R the occasional Hillary supporter's OP. I have this ability to be in there and not look at their OPs.

Because I know it would be bunk.

Some of his most vocal "supporters" have thousands of posts and they only just signed up. What's interesting is that the majority of them are all "Bernie or Busters," too.

But for those who say they won't vote for Hillary when she becomes the nominee they should be banned. This is Democratic Underground, a place for Democrats, Not Bernie extremists.

Although I agree with you totally. I think most of those are just here as troublemakers.
