I just want to personally thank all the Biden supporters here

[mikelgb]

for having a die-hard pulse on the Sanders campaign. Seriously I learn more here about Bernie's campaign, his advisers and any lil tidbit from random posters on twitter. It really is breathtaking the amount of time and effort you all put into this.

1. There's always a lot of good information at DU.

That's what keeps me coming back.

[DownriverDem]

16. Still

they must know Bernie can't win. They must know by him staying in it helps trump. They must know.

[NurseJackie]

2. You're welcome.

Joe/Kamala or Biden/Harris 2020!!
Jump on the Biden Bandwagon & abandon the revolution!!

[sheshe2]

3. OMG!

Thank you!

[MontanaMama]

28. Okay...

I see what you’re doing there...

[rzemanfl]

4. No snark there. Right? n/t

[NCProgressive]

5. You won't believe how much is out there but is not posted on DU.

[NurseJackie]

6. It's not worth the risk/hassle. But we know.

[msongs]

7. lol bernie has put 4 yrs into it and look where it's gotten him nt

[LakeArenal]

8. You are most welcome. Watch closely while Bernie ruins what's left of his career.

[mikelgb]

20. I am watching as you all ruin any good will that may be left

[LakeArenal]

21. Que Sera sera... That's up to Sanders supporters

They are the ones coming off as sore losers.

[Thekaspervote]

22. Exactly! Everyone from Kamala to Pete to Warren dropped out graciously

What ever is so hard about that?

The American voters have spoken, they unequivocally support Joe Biden. Sanders should drop out as well and voice his support for our nominee... and make it very clear to all his supporters that they should do the same

[Happy Hoosier]

23. O rly?

Have you had to wade through knee deep crap about Sanders having dementia? No?

[NCProgressive]

24. Your vote to defeat Trump should not depend upon good will.

If you are cognizant of the damage Trump can do, it would not be a brilliant move to say "my cyber-feelings are hurt so I'm not voting for a Democrat."

[mikelgb]

25. it won't

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

31. Astounding ain't it?! Instead of tryin to cultivate unity, which is an absolute must to beat Dolt45!

Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

[LanternWaste]

42. Says the poster who only last month told us Biden's 'signs of mental (sic) are concerning..."

"Hey its aLL good though!!! JumP on tHE BIDEN baNDWagon and JoIN naTurAL evolUTion!!!"

[GulfCoast66]

34. Really! An anonymous poster on a relatively small website can effect good will?

Jesus. We are a discussion site. I can’t imagine allowing posts to hurt my feelings or effect anything I do in the real life. I read posts. Agree with some. Disagree with others. Occasionally get insulted. But to give even a veiled threat that the way I’m treated here will have any affect on my decisions is astonishing to me.

Maybe you did not mean it that way. But that’s the way it read.

And no one called your candidate senile.

[mikelgb]

35. But did you see what that one Bernie bro said on Twitter?!

[GulfCoast66]

38. Nope. Don't do twitter. Could give a shit what someone says on it.

Even at the nadir of Biden’s campaign I did not read any of his supporters on DU or anywhere insinuating they would not vote for Bernie. I would have worked for and voted for him even though I can’t stand the guy. I not helping any republican, certainly not trump win again.

It is only the supporters of one campaign who regularly claim they will vote for no one but their candidate.

Anyone who will not vote for Biden because Bernie did win is not a progressive but a cult of personality member.

[LanternWaste]

41. Ever think to yourself "maybe the Sanders campaign is getting exactly what it gave?"

Or do you simply invest it all in self-indulgence, and blame everyone but yourselves?

[sheshe2]

9. I will add my thanks to Bernie supporters as well.

Seriously I learn more here about Bernie's campaign, his advisers and any lil tidbit from random posters on twitter. It really is breathtaking the amount of time and effort you all put into this.

They sure opened my eyes by attacking my Senator Elizabeth Warren. You see I was for Warren until she dropped out. She was viciously attacked after confronting Sanders for calling her a liar on National TV. It was ugly.

It came to a choice of two men to support, I chose Biden.

[NBachers]

10. You're welcome- and I'll give myself a pat on my own damn back as well!

[Cha]

12. lol.. somebody had to do it.

[NBachers]

13. Yeah, it's only me, myself, and I, at this point.

[Cha]

17. Just to be clear..

I meant the collective "somebody".. as in all of us who participated in helping the OP out.

[Walleye]

11. Was that sarcasm? It's getting so I can't tell anymore

[Sloumeau]

18. I am thinking that it is probably sarcasm based on this line:

It really is breathtaking the amount of time and effort you all put into this.

The fact is, it really takes almost no time at all to see what the Bernie Sanders supporting Twitterverse is saying, as you can see from my response below #14 Below.

[Sloumeau]

14. Keeping up with Bernie Sanders...

and his supporters actually takes very little time at all. One simply needs to look at the twitter feeds of one of his four national co-chairs...

--Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), San Juan, Puerto Rico Mayor
--San Juan, Puerto Rico Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz
--former Ohio state Sen. Nina Turner (D)
--Ben Cohen, a co-founder of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream

By looking at their twitter feeds, one can learn all about what Bernie Sanders and his campaign are planning next. &quot

You are very welcome!

[mikelgb]

26. see you went to all the trouble to go tho their feeds an list them, thanks

TIL all of Bernie's co-chairs

[sheshe2]

32. His top staff.

Nina-voted Stein.

Bri Bri- voted Stein.

Sirota-voted Stein.

Surrogates.

Sarandon-voted Stein

West- voted Stein.

[Jersey Devil]

15. Well, with Bernie dealing with a "fucking global crisis" we are happy to assist

After all, Bernie's important work comes first!

[GulfCoast66]

39. I figure the "fucking global crisis" is his campaign going down in flames.

[Butterflylady]

19. I knew what Sanders was all about,

But I was not aware of his campaign managers till I read some of the posts. I was flabbergasted by what I read, so, yes thank you for all you do.

[samnsara]

27. I was with Joe from Day 1..he makes me feel calm and safe..

[Vogon_Glory]

29. My concern this cycle had far less to do with

my opposition to Senator Sanders or any imaginary desire to defend the pillars of capitalism than it did to a strong and heartfelt desire to not only see Donald Trump out of office and as many Republican senatorial and congressional candidates defeated as possible.

I’m sorry, but I did not see Senator Sanders as the man to do that job. In fact, I feared that he’d lose to Trump and that the US would be cursed with another four years of Donald Trump in the White House with damage reverberating for decades. In fact, I went into a depression after New Hampshire and the Iowa caucuses anticipating Trump’s re-election.

Despite this, I wasn’t willing to concede defeat. I sent money to the Biden campaign and started posting my polemics. It now appear that that wretch in the White House may have to clear out of his digs in January 2021.

To the Sanders folks reading this, I hope you’re willing to do what Bernie’s forebears did to fight fascism in the 1930’s and join the rest of us in forming a united front to fight Trump and racist oligarchical Republicans.

[emmaverybo]

30. Not hard for me. I love Joe. Used to like Sanders, before the mess with the last campaign

and now all this. Sad.

[Blue_true]

33. We offer free beatings on most Tuesdays. nt

[mikelgb]

36. Good one!

[Blue_true]

37. Just kidding. I disagree on approach (but not end goals), but no beatings. nt

[BGBD]

40. The primary is over.

It's a binary choice, Biden or Trump.

If you don't vote for Biden you are voting for Trump. Justify your actions however you want, but that's the reality of it.

[LanternWaste]

43. As I want to thank Sander's top staff for ALL voting for Jill Stein.

Seriously, I learn so quickly in how to placate my feelings with self-indulgent excess, and blame everyone but myself for any ill-will even as we both so create it in the here and now (the irony will go unnoticed thought... more's the pity)

It's truly eye opening how we can so easily dismiss our own past behavior and yet hold others to a standard we ourselves would never even attempt.
