I'm a Bernie supporter. If he's not nominated, I might even vote for Trump, because I'm one of those "anyone but Clinton". I know there are a bunch of us out there.

I imagine, when Bernie drops out, Clinton will adopt parts of his platform, just like Obama adopted parts of her platform when he won the nomination.

I'm also a Bernie supporter. However, I'll still vote for Hillary *cringes* because I'm one of those "anyone but Trump." I know there are a bunch of us out there too .

Yeah, that's a definite. In fact, I see lots of tweets out there from Bernie supporters claiming that she is already "stealing" much of his platform. In fact, if you dubbed Bernie's voice into the victory speech that Hillary gave Tuesday night, you'd almost think that it was actually Bernie's speech!

Yes, she is stealing his platform and then she drops it and moves to the imaginary "center" again. She is just as untrustworthy as it gets and it becomes almost comical. Her speeches now are littered with platitudes, "break down barriers", "we all can reach our god-given potential" yadayadayada. If she gets the nomination, she'll start working for her financial overlords on the first day in office and start to cut deals to "get stuff done" (for her wealthy donors of course).

I will watch the presidential debates, investigate what i can, talk to people I know who might personally know one of the candidates, and decide.

So far, I am not a fan of either of the leading candidates.

She'll parrot it. She will never implement it. She's a PINO. (Progressive In Name Only)

Don't count Bernie out yet.

Heh-I've been thinking about it lately. Although I do think he may only be running to help his good friend Hillary ensure the general. That actually makes me want to vote for him though haha. Clinton would be stunned, and a revolution could take hold as Drumph makes a mockery of the Presidency.

I do believe Hillary would be the most destructive President-passing the TPP and expanding the war on "terror" are her biggest goals.

I'm not saying we shouldn't care for the environment, however, I have a hard time taking the Green Party seriously. I picture a bunch of tree-huggers wearing burlap and Greatful Dead shirts, eating beans, lentils and tofu listening to some Bob Marley, Greatful Dead or The Mommas and The Poppas, that walk, ride a bike everywhere or if they drive drive a Prius, Geo Metro, (remember those things), or a Toyota Corolla with the windows just covered in smoke film and for job they work at Starbucks or some place along those lines, and they're like bean-pole skinny because they don't meat, diary or anything heavy like pizza or Alfredo sauce. That's what I picture. Me, I like cows, I enjoyed the pound of beef I had for dinner last night, and the Italian food I eat a few times a week. I enjoy deer hunting. I listen to 90's hip-hop and hard rock. I drive an SUV, and for a living a drive a cement truck that weighs 36,000 pounds empty and consumes a gallon of diesel fuel in 5 miles. Yeah me and the Green party have a lot in common lol
