(11,746 posts)Thanks. I was indeed looking for different perspectives.
I am not going to hold it against Bernie. I agree with the idea that we really have no idea who or what the perpetrators of this are. They are individuals, at the end of the day, so they are each responsible for their own actions.
I am more interested in moving the Democratic Party forward. I don't like the word "progressive." I prefer the word liberal but either way I see us, as a whole, being pretty unified as to our goals beyond who gets to be at the head of our ballot. That's why I like both Bernie and Hillary. I don't think either of them will constrain us--both will take us as far as they can within the reality of limitation that is "conservatives." I think President Obama has done that and is doing that.
"Conservatives" are my real enemy, and I think we see their underlying hate and anger bubbling up as we speak. The Supreme Court is of critical import. We have so many positive common goals.
