I kind of knew this from the start, as I bet most of us did around my age. Am somewhat stunned how well he has done. It is at this point I say I am ALL IN WITH THE GUY! but time to get around to Hillary (UGH).
I am a realist and I know how the world works and a real liberal can't win a national election in this world. So many things working against us. He is right on about every issue. Even a number of the far right family members my brother married into, when I strip away all the BS and tell them what Bernie thinks and not what the media says, they are all in.
I like to joke the first campaign I worked on was for Jerry Brown. I was a grad student at LSU. I went door to door for Jerry Brown. Just ponder that for a few. Me, a guy that had a voice that sounded strange from the midwest, "Yankee," going door to door campaigning for a person from Calfornia in the deep south.
I learned a lot about both myself and my fellow Americans doing that. Most were kind of positive! A few were not.
At the top of the list of what I learned was we were not so different. Almost the exact same.
All of us Bernie fans are going to have to put on our "big boy pants" and vote for Hillary. It is something I've done every election of my life. It feels and maybe is even kind of "dirty," but it is what it is.
The sooner we realize this the better IMHO.
