In reply to the discussion: I feel like I'm losing my mind with still more Hillary vs. Bernie [View all]delisen
(7,128 posts)am interested in her analysis because I believe she is the strongest and most knowledgeable leader we have in the US-and the one who has withstood the most attacks from anti-democratic forces-both foreign and domestic.
I value that history and am unlikely to ignore it for the latest flashy, and untested candidate.
If I were a German I would be voting for the unglamorous but experienced and wise Merkel.
If some people need to have candidates that "excite" them in order to participate in the political process that is their personal need. (Your family members who refused to vote for Clinton were free to do that and free to suffer the consequences).
I and others like me don't need that kind of emotional high. We need to involve ourselves perhaps more rationally. there are many millions of us, we vote steadily Democratic, and neither we nor Clinton are going away nor are we going to threaten to not vote, or vote third party.
Let Clinton speak, let Sanders speak, let you speak, let me speak. In that way we build democracy.
The crises we are facing are not going to be made worse if a few people want to examine the recent past while at the same time leaving you free to do whatever you want.
