I believe it's time we come together as a party

[Gman]

and close ranks around our soon to be nominee, Hillary. It is a fact that Warren is not running. Sanders will not either. The sooner we close ranks around Hillary, the stronger we will be in November next year. Now is the time for all of us to come together and support Hillary.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

1. No.

[PowerToThePeople]

2. rec. n/t

[NYC_SKP]

3. No. It's time to chose from a variety of candidates.

Ones who don't support Fracking, for example.

4. Not gonna happen. nt

[zappaman]

5. Not yet.

Gonna have to wait for some primaries.

[AtomicKitten]

6. Pfft. As if.

[stillwaiting]

7. Are you enjoying yourself? The primaries haven't even started yet. nt

[Hiraeth]

8. I believe there is still plenty of time. In fact, I think Hillary announced way too early.

[still_one]

9. Having fun stiring up the gang at DU are you

[HereSince1628]

10. Good lord! Why do you hate campaign staff?

The campaigns are barely getting into sending out paychecks and you want to put people out of work!

[Gman]

23. Good point except

what other campaign staffs?

[demmiblue]

11. Lol... nope! n/t

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. Nope. I am awaiting Lincoln Chafee's decision. Hillary will only get a vote from me.

If she is the eventual nominee, and I hope she is not. No money, no campaigning, no support. I will vote strictly to keep a crazy Republican out of office, but no... no closing ranks around someone who doesn't represent me. Sorry boo.

Lincoln runs, and I'm active as hell at the national level again for the first time in 11 years.

[Bluenorthwest]

38. So I assume you are in favor of TPP? Chafee is a major free trade advocate, has voted for Fast Track

authorities, he's a big no go for me.

[Thinkingabout]

13. Well many of us will, maybe some will not. My opinion will not be changed to move away from

Issues of long time importance to the DNC. I value the DNC platform. Thank you for your post, see some who are not willing to advance the DNC.

[TheKentuckian]

14. Puh leeeez stronger what corporate owned neocons that hate civil liberties and democracy?

[TransitJohn]

15. Bzzzzzzzzzzzzt. No.

Thanks for playing.

[liberal_at_heart]

16. uh, no. Now is the time for the primary. Many in the party will close ranks as soon as a nominee is

chosen. If Hillary is the nominee, that will not include me. I will write Bernie Sanders name in no matter what. If it must be a protest vote, then I will cast a protest vote. I will not vote for Hillary.

[BainsBane]

17. We haven't even had any primaries or caucuses yet

The democratic process of the Democratic party enables people to make whatever choices they want, and it is ridiculous to assume we should all rally around a presumptive front runner before a single vote is cast.

It's also clear to me that there will never be any coming together, regardless of who the nominee is. I have learned that the enemy is not the GOP, Wall Street, or the 1 percent, but people like me who fail to hate and rage against Democrats in accordance with the DU orthodoxy. It is also clear I and others like me are the enemy for suggesting that my rights and interests might be of concern at all, when the ONLY thing that matters is the anger of a select few who are certain they and only they are entitled to speak for me and the rest of America. By daring to presume I speak for myself, I have made myself the enemy.

They don't want unity or solidarity and it has nothing to do with candidates or the election. It is because they are certain they are superior, and if they merely suspect any of us of heresy in diverging from the approved script, we become the enemy. While I might agree with them on a number of policies and concerns, they will never build solidarity with me or others because they have no interest in anything other than their own self-proclaimed superiority and excluding the rest of America from their notion of acceptable politics.

18. Who needs Primary Elections?

NOW we have a continuous Bush/Clinton Dynasty to
watch over us, and avoid all that outdated foolishness.

I don't know how Obama got in there in the first place,
but now we can fix all that, and get the nation back
on the right track.

[cali]

19. not on the horizon

The party is headed in the opposite direction. The tpp is causing a major schism. She won't take a position.

I support MOM. There is no reason for me or anyone else to support her this early in the process

[Gman]

24. It's hardly a schism.

That's a bit dramatic. Disagreement, yes.

[rock]

20. I do believe we would be jumping the gun

There's no hurry. Absolutely nothing is gained by an early decision. I say all this even though I am a Hillary fan. It's just that I want to inspect all of our choices and see what the candidates have to offer.

[Sherman A1]

21. Thank you

For your thoughts, however my answer is No.

[whatchamacallit]

22. Thanks but I prefer... um... what's it called again...

oh yeah... democracy!

[SamKnause]

25. No, hell NO !!!!

[840high]

26. I can't support Hillary.

[Autumn]

27. is this sarcasm?

[tazkcmo]

28. No primary?

I'll wait till after the primary, how ever it turns out. Until then, no.

[gwheezie]

29. too early

I think there are still a few dems who will jump in Let's see what they have to offer. I do think dems can avoid sounding like Rush when they object to Hillary.

[scarletwoman]

30. DUzy!!! I LOVE good satire!

Subtle, too! Look at the people who took you seriously! What a hoot!

Good show, Gman!

[Liberal_in_LA]

31. yes

[peacebird]

33. Thank you for your concern, but no.

[2banon]

34. Dear Gman, I will never ever vote for a Neo-Liberal again, not ever. And there are far more than

just "a few" who understand the difference of SIGNIFICANT distinction between Liberals and Neo-Liberals.

[Agschmid]

35. Lol, no.

Not even I agree with that.

[cherokeeprogressive]

36. Nnnnnnnope.

[RiverLover]

37. So you want -all- of us to capitulate to republicans?

Hope you just forgot the sarcasm tag?

I'll never support a right-winger, no matter which party.

[bigwillq]

39. No, thanks (nt)
