Bernie supporters say something nice about HRC. HRC supporters say something nice about Bernie.

We all need to sand together as Democrats.

I will start.

I am a HRC supporter but I have always been a fan of Bernie's. If HRC becomes President I would love to see Sanders as the Secretary of Labor.

If some is wondering why I am posting this again I was asked to repost it in the primaries form.

I would, by far, rather see Bernie remain in the Senate, where he can continue his fight, with laser-like focus.

He inspires the potentially apathetic, energizes the committed and his vision sparks the political imagination of what America could look like.

Definitely worthy of being President. I admire her greatly.

(I just happen to think at this moment America needs someone more like Bernie)

So I will say Bernie is a great man, a great Senator, who has work hard for his country and I would have no problem voting for him if he is the nominee.

Hillary did a fantastic job yesterday of showing the county how tough she is and how crazy the republicans really are. I would also have no problem voting for her should she be the nominee.

She has a lot of fight in her, which she will need. While I prefer Sanders' positions, I would vote for Hillary if she is the nominee. I just believe Sanders presents a stronger contrast to Trump, and would trounce him ... and have coattails.

I'm glad this election is about issues. I lived through some snoozefests, I still don't really know what Dukakis, for example, was supposed to stand for. Hopefully the days of just making political noises and hoping the RW don't dig up a body with your name on are over.

I believe Bernie supporters are making an informed decision with their vote. I don't believe that any Bernie supporters are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.

I like Hillary Clinton, though, and will enthusiastically support her if she's nominated. She's smart as a whip, and she's tough, knowledgeable, and experienced. I've always had the strong feeling that her heart is in the right place.

Intelligence and toughness more than sufficient to completely obliterate any notion that women aren't equipped to be president.
