from either Bernie or Jeff tonight?
After every primary, I have received at least one email from them, but tonight - nothing.

(57,936 posts)Maybe there were problems at the polls we don't know about.
It's a bit discouraging that the results were what they were, but Bernie nearly tied in a couple of states. In fact it was a virtual tie.
But, hey, I've lived a long time.
There are a lot of problems with Hillary's candidacy and questions about her ethics. She may not even make it to the convention. You never know. A lot of things could happen between now and then.
The Democratic Party is, in my opinion split. I don't, for example, know whether I can trust Hillary with our Social Security. That is our income, but Hillary, no matter what she says during the campaign, I feel, could care less about Social Security. She gives it lip service, but I don't think she understands at all how many people in the US depend on that income as their only income. And it really does not pay a lot.
There are a lot of reasons for my being utterly opposed to a Hillary presidency. War being one. But Social Security is the most personal reason for my opposition to Hillary. She and Bill hang out with too many foes of Social Security.
I wonder who is more likely to protect Social Security. Trump or Hillary? Or neither of them?
What do you think?

The thought of either one of them being president scares me and makes me sick.
From before Bernie announced, I've been worried about black box voting. I literally watched the vote count switch between John Kerry and W in Ohio in 2004.
The Democratic establishment does not want Bernie to be president. It would not surprise me in the least if they were controlling the vote counts.
I am supporting Bernie now and forever.
