If Bernie doesn't get the nomination, I will be disappointed.

But, my disappointment won't stop me from jumping on the bandwagon of whoever does win and beating the drum as loud as I can for our candidate.

Every one of Bernie's supporters needs to do this. This is how we win.

I'd vote for Sanders, without question or encouragement, if he got the nomination. Don't need anyone to encourage me to do so.

We all have to do this. This is too important an election for the party to go into the GE divided, no matter how much we might disagree in the primary.
