Some Bernie Sanders Supporters Are Suggesting How We Must Behave,

now that Joe Biden is pulling away in the lead. I remember something like that from the past, somehow.

Here's the thing: Joe is pulling ahead of Bernie. He has the momentum right now. Why should he, or we, change anything? I don't get it. I'm thinking maybe it's Bernie and his supporters who need to rethink a little. South Carolina gave us some interesting clues, it seems to me.

But, Bernie cancelled a rally in Mississippi. That make little sense, really. He headed toward Michigan, but wait...while labor is important in Michigan, it's also a state with a lot of black voters. Does Senator Sanders think they don't notice that he snubbed Mississippi?

What message is he bringing to Michigan? For those workers who are working and part of a Union, will he tell them that he's not going to take away their hard-negotiated health care? That would be new.

I'm not sure it's us who need to change our approach, really.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Dear Senator Bernie Sanders:

Apparently, your campaign doing largely the same thing as 2016 produced largely the same results. Who would have guessed?
