To say that the outrage among Sanders supporters is high school antics is to misunderstand the important of fair elections. Clinton is a puppet of large corporations: her paid speeches to Goldman-Sachs was called by a speech goer as a rousing cheer, donations from hedge fund managers and large media, support for trade deals that favor big business, support for a bankruptcy bill that favored large banks, ad infinitum. Clinton was anointed the nominee years ago, and that is not the mark of a free society. Trump on the other hand offers racism, xenophobia, an ill temper, and a gross disillusionment in terms of political negotiations. This is why I made the post, the future of America is grim no matter who gets picked. The only thing I am sure of, is that the next president will be ill equipped to handle the issues in the Middle East, and our country will suffer at the inept hands of our next leader.
