I put an OP up at GD-P but I realize some folks usually avoid going there

How wide spread is GD-P avoidance among members of this Bernie group? I understand why it can be a really unpleasant experience to go there, but I didn't realize some folks didn't monitor it for pro-Bernie threads.

Anyway it is called "President Sanders and a Republican Congress". It's got some recs there so I'll just link to it here.

You can put an OP in GDP about POC and BLM, or HRC endorsing HRC. Otherwise, you're SOL. jmondine Jan 2016 #3

I'm just conditioned from the 2004 and 2008 cycles to always head to GD-P first. Well, so far so good with this OP anyway (and I just knocked wood).

would guarantee at minimum an alert from HRH's subjects. Now it's not working so well for them. I always look, but prefer to stay out of the stuff slinging.

I am strong in my beliefs, and have facts and video at my fingertips.
I enjoy throwing cold water truth on some of the BS posts thrown up by the (you know who) crowd.
I get a lot of frivolous alerts, but very few hides.


...but I also live in a very conservative area, so I'm used to conservative bullshit and lies.
GD-P has a few very strong Bernie supporters still posting there. I'm glad to be one of them.

The (ahem) crowd has some prodigious Master-Baiters whose sole passion is to get Bernie supporters banned. They keep trying their Loyalty Oaths and other scams....just don't play.

Your vote is SECRET and Sacred, and no one, not even Hillary supporters, have the right to question you about your vote.
