So we can say, "Vote for them, 'COS our future depends on it!"



on edit: Taken backwards, it would be "S O C" so we can "SOC it to 'em!"

I dread coming on here lately because of all the nasty bickering and bullshit. I just want a Dem in the White House.

and while I'm sure it will continue, this is a day of calm and a reminder of the good things we stand for and work for. All three of our candidates are head and shoulders above anything the Republicans have to offer!

Big screen shot of "Republicans caucus" had me scratching my head. And I follow this stuff. Can't imagine what others thought.

I'm overflowing with excitement to get out and cast my vote in the first presidential primary in New Hampshire in just over a week!

I'll be watching Iowa closely tonight!

Ain't democracy grand?

I prefer one over the other two but I think that they are all good candidates. Unfortunately, The primaries for my state aren't for another couple of months.

and convoluted? It seems so archaic. It's 2016, yet the functionality of this event is like 1816. Weird.
