Wow, there must be some new polling out that I've missed
Thanks for the heads-up

But honest to goodness, how one infers who YOU absolutely favor is beyond idiotic. When I first saw your avatar, I thought how cool, Morrison loves writer Ta-Nehisi Coates, and you're a writer - connection made in my mind. I love Coltrane and Davis, both no longer with us, so as an uncommitted voter the poster would just KNOW who I must support because of an avatar???

It's really mind boggling that there could be no other reason for an avatar besides a political choice. This is what happens in supremacy when beliefs run rampant based on stereotypes that allow no other thoughts. The Sander's fanatic belief system is not only bizarre but deplorable on so many levels.

The jury system has become a hit and miss based on who you support liberal N proud Dec 2015 #1
