I want to be the first to offer my wholehearted approval of Biden's VP pick.

18. Totally trashing your idea. Total bullshit.

The Bernie or bust that were just that. These are people who booed John Lewis. Total ideologues. Still plenty here.

If you boo John Lewis you are dead to me. And if someone was willing to boo John Lewis, the greatest living American at the time, they were not voting for Hillary. No way in hell. Or Vote for anyone who could win unless he was named Bernie. Wish we could identify them now. Because I’m sure most of the would deny they did such a thing.

I’m a moderate on DU but a Social Democrat to most Americans. Anyone who would boo John Lewis should be purged from the party. Because they don’t understand what it means to be a Democrat. And lots of ‘progressive’ Bernie supporters did just that. Booed John Lewis. Who now lays in state in the Capital.

And what did Bernie do? Did he charge the stage and reprimand His delegates and explain that John Lewis had almost been killed fighting for civil rights and was a man to be honored? No, he sat there grinning like the cat that ate the canary. I fucking saw it on television. The most disgusting thing I have ever seen.

Before you respond please read about the original Southern Progressives. Woodrow Wilson, Huey Long and Theodore Bilbo. Read their progress policies. Understand why we Southern Democrats reject the label.

Too many on DU watched as ‘progressives’ booed the great John Lewis. We will never forget. And in my case will never forgive.
