[font style="font-family:'Georgia','Baskerville Old Face','Helvetica',fantasy;" size=4 color=#009999]I make no secret that I was a Bernie supporter and posted there for a while when the primary wars were raging. I needed a place to go not filled with Bull Bernie SMEARS.
I have also made it clear that I supported, donated, and voted for Hillary in the general. During that time when JPR went batshit nuts and became a bunch of Jillbots and Trump-humpers I repudiated them STRONGLY and frequently.
Maybe if you followed my posts here on DU you know that.[/font]
Bernie has endorsed Hillary, I am going to vote for her.
Not only that but she has been endorsed by Russ Feingold, Elizabeth Warren, John Lewis, and many other people I admire.
But most importantly of all, I can not and WILL NOT allow my vote in any way give the Republicans the white house and the supreme court.
I am going to vote a straight democratic ticket.

He's not telling anybody what to do, but Party leadership seems to find his perspectives valuable.

Agreed. We need to integrate our strengths, not hold on to opposition that gets us nowhere.

Just to be clear: it's not a "fact" that "older feminists were voting for Hillary based on sex"

Yeah, we really needed the perspective of rightwing Reagan supporters like Peggy Noonan.

If you haven't read the book how do you know if it might have ideas that help progressive causes?
