Kris Seto, I'm not going to even front like this is respectable, but where the fuck were you and these Bernie supporters in 2010, 2012, and 2014???
Like seriously, #BernieorBust??? FOH!!!
No, really … I am not looking for extra hype, but Bernie Supporters need to grow up. #SERIOUSLY
Don't pardon my lack of diversity on word choice. Please hold me accountable. Because I honestly can't think of more words, to further define the pettiness of the Bernie supporters.
Not all are petty. It's the ones that claim they can't support Hillary, at all. The ones that claim to be independent and might vote republican if Bernie isn't the candidate. This is a contributing factor to why Bernie is looking more and more unappealing and less presidential. It didn't work for Hillary in 2008, it won't work for Bust in 2016.
Bernie himself is also damaging his brand. Yes brand. Because you're trying to sell us on voting for the Democratic Party. This is really starting to look like temper tantrums, and less like a viable campaign.
Barack Obama
Bernie has been throwing President BO shade since 2009. People act like supporting Bernie is supporting reform. Bernie wants a universal system, right? But first, lets repeal ACA. Sounds like shade. He came at Obama for not prosecuting Wall Street. Is this dude a republican or independent? While we're capable of multitasking, the economy was much more important. And I don't blame Obama for opting to get a health care law passed, over prosecution of bankers. They've been trying to do it for years. Let's also not pretend like Bernie was contemplating running against Obama in 2012. Shade that was blocking out the sun, eclipsing.
Oh, Bernie is a one issue candidate. Take from the wealthy, and give to everyone else. This might sound republican-ish, but we have to show interest in building for ourselves.
While white people and other than blacks have been cheering on Bernie, there's been a serious awakening going on in America with Blacks. One of the reasons I don't know why Blacks would support a Bernie cause.
The conversation is for us to know, but the people aren't coming together anymore. They want it all done by a “savior”. Save yourself. Get together, contact comptrollers and put an article in the local newspaper that you're opening a bank. Come together and buy up these shopping centers and charge businesses an affordable rent rate. Put the money together and build or renovate homes. That's progress. That's how you break up Big Banks BERNIE!!! You break them financially.
Hillary Clinton
Stop making it seem like all this dirt you've pulled up on Hillary is relevant. I am personally interested in a Hillary presidency because it's a great move for America, and a progressive movement for women.
When I was young, I lived in the projects of the Bronx. I moved to Virginia at 14 months after my uncle was killed. Crime was real. All these black people were being murdered by their own people. Put an act to the title super predators … what the rappers in the 80s and 90s rapped about was real. In the words of Jay Z, this ain't a movie dog!!!
Crime was everywhere else too. White neighborhoods, believe it or not, Spanish and Native American neighborhoods. From that perspective, tough on crim only made sense. Let's not omit parts of history.
It did get carried away with jailing young black men, but there was a period where the policy was effective. I worked in a Drug Rehabilitation center, Addicts Rehabilitation Center Harlem, NY and it wasn't a joke. People came through the program with real drug problems. It was damaging to our community because, if a man needs money, and he hasn't been prepared to get that money any way else, he's gonna make a sell. That image was imprinted on thousands of kids everyday. I could give you more on that, but you're better off knowing someone from the hood to give you a raw lesson.
Bernie Sanders
Bernie is really feeling himself. He probably feels he's never made such a difference, so giving up is not an option. However, knowing when to concede shows true leadership. Bernie may have his views, but so does Elizabeth Warren. So does Joaquin Castro. So does Cory Booker. Elizabeth Warren would have been a great candidate. But she's not. Bernie knows Hillary was the presumptive nominee from day one. He gave Hillary a great run for her money. But he should definitely start transitioning his supporters.
Just Remember
Hillary Supporters went with her years ago. They voted in 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014. Bernie voters are supporting a caus, one that's 9 years past due. She's more than qualified.
Stop trying to destroy her, and rally behind her. It's time. To be with her.
