I am still shocked....if your a leftist...Bernie represented everything you supposedly believe in...up and down the line. Hillary does not. She is a corporatist insider, highly polished wind shifter that doesn't even come close to representing the left - especially progressives - and yet - they voted for her.
Mind boggling.
No, right wing propaganda. A few "liberals" fell for it, but only a few.
Clinton is the most liberal candidate the Democrats have ever run. Her positions are nearly identical to Sanders. She is more liberal than him in some ways, less liberal in others.
Clinton's political history is not pro-corporate. Her current platform is very anti-corporate. Those calling Clinton a "corporatist" are making up stories, doing the GOP's dirty work for them.
Bernie Sanders wasn't stupid enough to fall for that kind of right-wing propaganda. If a Bernie voter is falling for it, they've betrayed the spirit of Bernie. And if they're voting third party and letting Trump win because "but my feelings are hurt!", then they're part of the problem, an opponent of what liberals have worked for, and what many have died for.
You won't find any minorities pulling such moral purity crap, as they understand more clearly what's at stake. Real people will suffer and die if Trump is elected. And the morally pure crowd doesn't care, because they don't think they'll be affected themselves. Mighty big of them. A million dead Iraqis would criticize them as well, if they weren't dead, indirectly killed by the moral purity of some Nader voters.
And "fixed"? Get a grip, and lose the sour grapes. Someone wrote an email of a tactic that wasn't used, so the kooks are going into conspiracy meltdown mode. If someone is that devoid of rationality and common sense, I can see why the Democrats might not be the party for them.
