Conservative hubby hates the clown car candidates and prefers Sec'y Clinton to them, BUT

[GreenPartyVoter]

listening to Bernie just now he said, "he makes me want to vote for him. He sounds Presidential and like someone you can trust."

He wants to keep an open mind for Hillary's turn, but that was still a very nice thing to hear.

1. My husband and I agree on politics...

...and religion/spiritual matters, and sometimes not much else, but those are 2 biggies. I can't imagine it being otherwise.

That must have been a delightful moment for you. I hope there are more.

2. We have both mellowed out over the years. There was a time when

we couldn't talk about either subject without flipping out on each other. And yes, it was very nice to hear him giving Bernie a compliment like that.

3. How nice to see you, my dear GreenPartyVoter!

And you like Bernie too!

Yay!

Hope you and your family and your beautiful home are all doing well!

[GreenPartyVoter]

4. Hi, NursePeggy! *hugs* We are all well here. ElderGreenKid turns 18 tomorrow, and his little bro

just turned 16. (He was still a toddler when I started coming here!)

Hope things are well with you and yours, too!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. We're all good, thanks!

There are now grandchildren (gasp) and stuff like that!

I hope you will post more in the future! I've missed you.

[GreenPartyVoter]

6. You are sure to see me around as long as Bernie is in the race. Haven't been

this excited and hopeful about politics in a long time!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. That makes me glad! I feel hopeful and energized too.

8. I must say, that if I were married to someone who was

conservative, I don't think I'd remained married very long.

I was married, as it happens, for some twenty-five years, and the best part was that we were on the same page politically.

I guess I'll equate it with smoking. I'm a non smoker, and I can't begin to imagine having a relationship with a smoker. Likewise, I can't imagine having a relationship with a conservative.

But to all those who are with those who are on a very different path, I admire and respect you.

9. We're high school sweethearts who started dating right after I turned 15. God knows that

this relationship has been fraught with tension over the years, but as we have both grown and mellowed in our old age we now enjoy talking politics more. We are constantly messaging the latest crazy talk from Trump and LePage to each other. LOL

10. People will be surprised at how many republicans will vote for Bernie!

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. I think they forget that moderate Repubs still exist. The far RW likes to ignore them and

they don't turn up in the media all that much compared to the neocon and religious sort.

I married into a charismatic evangelical family, but along with being very faith-oriented hubby is very bright and likes to watch Rachel, Colbert,and the Daily Show with me and listens to NPR and AL Jazeera America more often than Limbaugh. Unlike his family, he is not a single issue voter and looks more at the big picture.

Now if I can just get my little bro, who likes Trump for shaking up DC, to give Bernie a serious listen!

[libtodeath]

13. Tell him that Trump wants to shake things up because he craves attention

Bernie will shake things up for the good of the people!

[Orsino]

11. It's good to listen to many voices. n/t

[GreenPartyVoter]

15. Yes, it is.

14. My fiance and our girlfriend both pull for Bernie

They both don't believe Hillary will do anything for them either, and have studied her foreign policy to the point that they don't want me in the military if Hillary gets in.
