re: #124 Belafon

I think most of us are arguing over who creates a large turnout. Will or won’t Bernie? Does his hatred of mainstream Democrats hurt him or will the usually unreliable young vote carry him? Will he hurt downstream candidates or help them? How about the other candidates?

These are the questions that Bernie supporters don’t seem to want to really tackle. There’s a growing arrogance that says votes like mine are a given and so we need to focus on turning out the youth and “progressive” vote. But like I said above, I could just as well vote third party on the top of the ballot and blue down the rest and equal much the same outcome.
