answer:I’ll ignore the “rabid Bernie Sanders supporters”, and instead translate this to “progressives”. As I have stated here before, I will not be voting for Clinton. Sanders’ endorsement doesn’t change anything for me. I have tried many times to discuss Clinton, Sanders, and the possible move forward with the conservative Democrats here a few times, and have been met with the usual conservative tactics (“A vote for Jill Stein == a vote for Trump”, “You just want Trump to win!”, etc). I was really hoping that explaining the progressive position might help right/center Democrats understand what Sanders’ candidacy was about, and allow them to provide a legitimate path for Sanders supporters that wouldn’t just mean “Vote for Clinton”. I have some suggestions for the more conservative Democrats and how to communicate with the left/progressives. 1. “A vote for Stein == a vote for Trump” is not going to fly. It’s not true. 2. Do not…I repeat, do not make the mistake of bringing up Nader and using the Nader myth in an attempt to bully the left into voting for Clinton. We know too much to fall for that. 3. Sanders’ endorsement doesn’t mean that his supporters need to follow his lead because it was not about Bernie Sanders. 4. There are other candidates running for president. 5. It’s possible to vote for Stein or Johnson and be well informed and versed in the “lesser of two evils” model. 6. Some people may choose to vote for Stein or Johnson if they live in a state that is safely going for Clinton. Even as a Clinton supporter, I can’t see why you wouldn’t strongly advocate for this tactic. 7. Remember: Many of us are not Democrats. Don’t make assumptions about our positions. If you are interested in pulling us into your tent, listen more. I have more to add, but need to step into a brief meeting.
