Bernie knows better. Hillary is just a fake liberal who cashes your votes in for wealth and influence.

I found this so interesting. I can't relate. I mean, afraid to "come out" online? Pfft, whatever is thrown at me online has zero effect on me. I've become immune. 14 years and counting, it's high time I'd say.
I understand about the personal relationships, and the effing mansplainin from the Bernsters. Crikes, put a sock in it already. At one point if I had to hear one more word about that damned bird I was going to get out my cast iron frying pan and put it to good use! I mean, a bird landed outside, as birds will, how excited was I supposed to get?
But I never thought of shutting up or backing down. I told them to eff off and I really don't care if some berniesplainer has a problem with it. It's not like I ever brought it up. Much like the Trumpsters I know, it is they who can't stfu and always insist on hitting you over the head with their latest epiphany.
But all of that aside...like me, these women voted. And come November, we'll vote again. I think it's interesting.

I wasn’t the only one cheering when Clinton spoke to my concerns. I wasn’t the only one stunned silent by people saying they wanted a woman for president, but not that woman. I wasn’t the only one who tried to speak to younger progressives and heard myself sounding as unintelligible as the grown-ups in a "Peanuts" TV special.
My new campaign cohort was capped at 150 members and I'd just made it in. We were wildly diverse in age, profession and interests. The group was predominately but not exclusively female. Some members were politically sophisticated activists. Others, like me, responded from the gut.
Logging onto my secret Hillary fan club became a bigger and bigger part of my online day, checking in on reports from Hillary’s events, checking out links reading comments. While my nearest and dearest talked about how no one was talking about Bernie, I sneaked off to my computer to feel solidarity with strangers whom I wouldn’t even recognize in line at the market.
With every set of primaries, we could log on and keep refreshing our news feeds to watch the results come in together. We celebrated in real time again and again. Not to gloat, but the latest count is more than 16.5 million votes, according to Wikipedia.
And now it has come out that there are many, many secret Hillary groups online, some with several thousand members. The fact that so many of us have felt the need to hide speaks equally to the ferocious public nature of the Hillary-haters and the private faith of her supporters.
I don’t know about the other secret groups, but the one I’m in continues as strong — and as private — as ever. Some brave members have stepped out of the closet occasionally to engage in cyber battles Others say they will only feel safe coming out in the voting booth.
Until this election, I never completely got the power of the secret ballot. In an effort to keep peace at family dinners, or at work, or in the carpool, I’m sure many people stay mum about their political allegiances. When we finally get our ballots, however, we make our marks as we please, no matter what the pollsters predict or the attack ads scream. With that in mind, I hope any Hillary leaner who still finds herself buffeted by Sanders diehards, Trump enthusiasts or even scofflaw nonvoters will seek out a safe place for some camaraderie and support.

Hillary's secret society of sycophants. Makes perfect sense.

Hillary Clinton is more comfortable lying than speaking the truth. There's no myth to her being a bitch, she's shown us she's a bitch.

We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
Ergo, religion.
rac·ist
rāsəst/noun
a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
If the answer is yes, you are a racist.
Oh, noble Bernie! Thou wouldst run the fortunes of this great nation, like your wife handled Burlington!
