You see, trying to stop Hillary from being president is trying to ensure that people in other parts of the world are not unnecessarily harmed.

Twenty to thirty thousand people routinely come to his rallies. Think there is any love there? When his name is mentioned on shows with an audience there is an inevitable roar of people cheering and clapping. You would have to be a deaf, dumb and blind Hillbot to question the peoples love of Bernie and Bernie's love of the people.
