For relatively minor disagreements about policy emphasis, there is a lot of vitriol.

The arguing between the supporters of Clinton and Sanders is far more bitter and personal than those between the candidates themselves. Those engaging in this much more frenetic and emtional argumentation should wonder why that is.

Driving up the unfavorables of opposing candidates is exactly why people hate politics. Keep it to a positive vision, please. Both candidates represent perfectly legitimate viewpoints within the party.

Thank you.

1. You have a good point BUT

Sanders supporters do not believe anything HRC says. That is a barrier that is almost insurmountable and has nothing to do with whether HRC supporters or Sanders supporters savage each other here. Out there in poll land, given all her advantages HRC looks to be an unstoppable force. Elsewhere in the homeland lots of people are listening to, and giving money to, a balding Jew from Brooklyn who would love to see the US operate more like Sweden or Norway than any fantasy out of Ayn Rand. This, by the way, is almost insane from the point of view of HRC supporters, including DWS.

So, unless or until HRC can convince America that she can be trusted the Keebler Elf from Vermont will be a real threat.

BTW, Sanders would be the first Jew ever elected President just as HRC would be the first woman. Any of the GOP candidates would be just another moron and we've already elected too many of them.
