In reply to the discussion: My Thanks to Bernie Sanders [View all]jemsan
(266 posts)Very accurate description of the way I felt after California and still do. Not sure where to go with these feelings as I watch my adult children who really thought that Bernie could win and would win thus changing their lives for the better. Watching Hillary and the status quo being promoted by the print media and television media and ignoring the Bernie Sanders message that so many people support and espouse is heartbreaking. Watching the DNC pay lip service to his message is heartbreaking. Watching the party that I have belonged to for 50 years ignore the ideals and values of VERY large numbers of people who supported Senator Sanders is heartbreaking....while expecting us to vote for her. I suppose I will watch till the convention and see what Bernie does and wants us to do and hopefully some of these issues will get better, but I have little faith that they will. I just wish that I felt like if I voted for Hillary SOME of what Bernie stands for will actually come to fruition. Just don't know. #feelinthebern
