I just want @berniesanders to be happy. It's the first thing I put on my list to Santa I wrote over the week-end. I just want @berniesanders to be happy -- because when he's miserable, everybody's miserable. @berniesanders is miserable (obviously). The people he flags are miserable. His friends are miserable because they don't want bernie to be miserable. I am miserable thinking about bernie being miserable. Everyone around me is miserable because I am miserable. It's just this whole unending ripple effect.
So I decided if Mark Twain can advocate prayers for Satan (based on some of the same logic ... Satan needs prayers more than anyone) ---> "But who prays for Satan? Who, in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?" ---> I can beg Santa for bernie's happiness.
When bernie is happy, everyone is happy. He will use his powers for good, and not be tempted to go over to The Dark Side.
Happiness for Bernie. Long may he wave!!
(I hope my terrible internet connection tonight lets me post this!!)
P.S.
Dear Bernie, you will be a whole lot happier when you stop trying to please everyone. It is a fool's errand ... and you are no fool. Just sayin'. Take it from me.
