No it is not. It is time to vote for those who support Sander's positions be it senator, representative, or school board member. It is an uphill task given how Democrats choose to fight one another over who can win instead of that which is right. If one tells the truth and supports all people regardless of tribal affiliation, the votes will come. I bet if one told the truth and supported what was clearly stated in the Gospels (among many other similar works), there is even a chance some evangelicals may give up on hate.
Bernie was sabotaged by the DNC -- period. Such actions do not rise to the moniker 'conspiracy' but rather 'politics as usual.'
I despise 'politics as usual' but also realize how difficult it is to change human nature.
I don't know if you have realized, but the electorate is angry and properly so, they know they are being screwed but some do not know how to solve the problem. The problem can't be solved by supporting those who caused the problem in the first place, this fact should be obvious to anyone.
Hillary Clinton is an expert at governing -- in the 1990's -- we are over 20 years past. I refuse to vote for her unless it keeps the turd golem Trump away from the suitcase. I hope I am wrong but I think Clinton will forget any promise to the electorate once the inaugural party starts and she is drinking 1952 Dom Perignon with Kissinger and Larry Sumners.
Meanwhile this feud you are having with RAZD is part of the reason we don't have single-payer health care or ranked voting. Both of you need to step back and realize we are all on the same side.
