There is a shame in not voting. People died for that right. Political campaigns spend billions of dollars to get votes for a reason.
If you don't know who Dennis Kucinich is, you should take some time to google it. He said a lot of things that no other politician had the courage to say.
Bernie supported the Democratic candidate, regardless of her shortcomings, for the same reason the popular majority voted for her. (She won the national popular vote by 3 million btw.) We all have diverse beliefs and opinions about many different issues, so logically, there is no way any of us will find a candidate that we agree with 100% of the time. Political purists are isolating themselves by refusing to find middle ground and compromise. For me it didn't feel like settling for the lesser evil. It felt unifying for the greater good.

What!
Nobody died for the right to vote for criminals selected for you by an Oligharchy.
Clinton, the greater good? C'mon.
I'm a political atheist and have no time for party politics.
Not a purist believe me.
Anyway dude each to their own though eh?
I read your exchange, and I find your talking point's are in line with liberal mainstream media talking point's. Which is cool. An open exchange of idea's is a great thing. Hate to but in to your conversation, but I will anyway. Is it truly a democratic vote If you don't get to choose who you vote for? 50% of Americans hate Hillary 50% hate trump which means 100% of Americans cant stand politicians. Doesn't sound very democratic to me. Yet you must choose one or the other. Report's of Trumps ties to Russia omg where to begin? I will say this, report's go back to before the election and haven't stopped, yet nothing has shaken loose. Is it possible there is nothing there? Say something enough times and people will start to believe it as true. Comey released a document about the testimony he was about to give to congress. 7 pages yet the media repeated the same 4-5 lines all day and night every 15 minutes. Nothing about Clinton nothing about the rest of his document same 5 lines over and over ad nauseum. All I wanted was the freaking weather report, and while were at it does firing the director of the F.B.I make an investigation go away? Was James Comey even doing any of the leg work in that investigation? You say you know Clinton is corrupt, Comey must be a complete moron for not knowing because he took notes when talking to Trump but not a single scribble about Clinton? Well he is either a complete moron which is what got him fired or he could see in to the future and knew Trump was going to fire him so he started taking note's. As long as we stand divided for one or the other we will never realize they are merely two sides of the same coin. Vote with your wallet, buy bitcoin gold silver, get out of their system and make them irrelevant.
Totally agree .
Thanks for commenting.
And don't forget to comeback.

This whole packet of back and forth pretty much illustrates the mindscaping that we are all subjected to...from cradle to grave. :-(
