Unfortunately it's a fact, some voters will not support Clinton if she is Democratic nominee

39. It's probably also a fact that some voters won't support Sanders if he's the nominee.

I think it's short sighted either way.

The thing that disturbs me the most is that the author of the piece in the OP doesn't seem to understand that he's screwing his own future if he doesn't do everything possible to stop the repubs from winning the WH.

If a repub wins the WH, a long list of Executive Orders that Obama issued on things like minimum wage, climate change, etc. will be repealed the next morning and a long list of odious executive orders will begin to be issued. That isn't going to happen if either Clinton or Sanders wins the WH.

If a repub wins the WH, there is a high probability that the Supreme Court, which basically has a 4-4-1 split now, with the one siding a bit more often with the conservatives, but not always, will turn into a 6-3 split with the Conservatives dominating the court for the next generation or two.

It's going to be damn hard to make progress at the voting booth with Supreme Court that will expand Citizen's United, not roll it back and that will uphold every restriction on voting rights the repubs can come up with.

And I hope the author doesn't have any gay friends. Otherwise he'll have to explain how he didn't do what he could to ensure that the Supreme Court didn't shift in a way that resulted in a conservative majority rolling back the right to same sex marriage (and/or elevating freedom of religion to a place where it swallows up all other rights). Because that will happen.

In short, I agree with those that say this author needs to grow up and stop demanding that he get the pony he wants. I'm voting for Bernie in the primaries and if enough other voters join me, great. But if not, I'm on board with Clinton without reservation. Because the stakes are too damn high. And I will bet everything I own, Bernie himself would be the first to say so.

If you want Bernie to be your leader, you damn well ought to be ready to follow his lead.
