    Sincere question to my Democratic friends who aren’t big on Bernie. If he runs, and wins the nomination, would you vote for him? Yes or no.

        It's questionable because I don't see him as anything other than a populist on the left in the same way that Trump is a populist on the right. I don't think he has the ability to to unite the party as much as he had the ability to galvanize a group of angry voters.

        That's a "It's hard to see how Bernie can build consensus rather than contrast and he hasn't proven to me that he can appeal to actual Democrats yet." If his campaign is based on saying folks are ______ enough, then the answer is no.

        “Actual democrats” what a crap label if they just vote with republicans all the time. Why not vote for the man that has all of our (not corporate) interests in mind. His policies are what dems are Now running on. He never changed his tune.

        Sounds like if it were a contest between DT and Bernie, you’d sit it out. The question is - what would you do if presented that option. Unless you’d vote for Mr. Starbucks.

        Though I am supporting Kamala Harris in the primary, I pledge to expend all of my efforts to 100% support the Democratic nominee with all that I got, whether they be Bernie, Biden, or Oprah. When the primary ends we all gotta work together.

        So you support high incarcerations among POC? Why don’t you ask her constituents who had her type of ‘progressive’ policy as AG, if she should ever hold that much power. I will not support a candidate that backtracks on M4A in less than a day, and will do whatever AIPAC wants.
