30. Believe it or not, an awful lot of us angry old white guys will be right behind you!

Disclaimer: I became an angry old white guy sometime after I stopped being an angry middle-aged white guy, which happened after I stopped being an angry young guy during the Vietnam era.

I felt the Bern and am 'Bernie or Bust' (see http://www.democraticunderground.com/12512309238 to understand )

But I too understand the horror of what a tRump Presidency would mean. Forget about Obamacare, think about Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid. Talk to your Conservative friends about what Trump would do to those programs, which he has called "Ponzi schemes"! Talk to your younger Conservative friends about how they would end up supporting their parents and having to become 'Death Panels' themselves when they had to decide whether to pay for the drugs needed to keep their parents alive.

Not all angry white guys are tRumpbots and I will be doing everything I can to make sure that there will be a Clinton in the White House come January!
