Poll: If you could have Hillary Or Bernie for President, who would you pick??

[chknltl]

253. Oh I have!

Color me .....what's the word I am looking for here....oh yeah, color me a conspiracy theorist but to me this proves that my fellow Americans at DU do indeed have a moral compass. We DUers rally here for more than just our news, we rally here because we share something: a deep understanding about right and wrong with how democracy in America is supposed to work. This poll actually gives me hope, inspiration even, that the big DU is prepared to lead the citizenry in a much needed discussion on what actual democracy here in America should be about.

Now that I understand this poll's implications I would love to see another Poll: Were you in favor of or not in favor of impeachment hearings when Nancy Pelosi became Speaker of The House. I say this because just like today, I believe my fellow DUers understood the needs of our democracy just as deeply then as they do now. I'll not risk my membership by pointing fingers but just prior to our taking the House and directly after when Madam Speaker took impeachment off the table, that period of time when those paying attention in this country were screaming for impeachment, a concerted effort was felt here in DU to make us feel stupid for supporting it. I WAS CRUSHED thinking that my fellow DUers, many that I had come to admire had turned against what I clearly knew was the right thing for our nation.

To this day I have asked myself: Did corporatist money find it's way here? I am now of the opinion that the answer to that question will reveal itself over the coming weeks in this way: If a concerted effort is seen in DU that creates the illusion here that Senator Sanders can not win, that he can not be the nominee. The bottom line, THIS TIME I know who our allies are. We are here because we want to be here....I will not second guess anyone on that list who voted for Bernie, wondering if they have been paid to promote a corporatist's agenda. I know that their opinions come from the same place as mine: their heart.
THAT IS WHAT THIS POLL MEANS TO ME.
