Hillary supporters, are we supposed to accept America the way it is and is becoming?

Thats basically what you are telling the Bernie supporters, that we should just accept the status quo and the way things are, despite the insatiable desires of the greedy 1% and their determination for conquest of politics throughout America, which threatens the quality of life of everyone. Yes, we should just submit to the 1% and let them ruin our lives without a fight.

This is not the American spirit! This is not the spirit that any person with dignity should have!

Bernie for president!

...and you do not yet have many posts. Somehow I don't think the OP was directed at you.

But you Bernie supporters need to also realize your vision isn't necessarily appealing either.

Or are just stalking and trying to goad me?

You sure have been coming up with numerous off the wall responses to many, many of my posts. What's up with that? I wonder if I should start keeping a closer track?

are you so offended? Do you like the direction the country headed with decreased wages and public institutions headed towards privatization?

First and foremost, no one is MAKING you vote in any direction.

Second, you appear to be fine and dandy, attempting to MAKE a majority of voters vote for your preferred candidate, so you are not forced to vote for Hillary?

I don't think that's how Democracy works.

They are telling us we can't win back congress. That the only progress we can make is an inch at a time, if even that.

It disturbs me greatly to see such defeatism on DU.

We need to get rid of the wimps and put in strong and courageous people in the Democratic Party leadership.
