I still love Bernie. I'm not leaving my political party because he lost a primary. I liked Joe Biden in 2008 and after he was evidently beaten I didn't decide not to vote because other members of my party liked a candidate better. This is like my 5th presidential election. If I turned 18 a few months earlier I would have been able to vote in 96' but I hated Clinton then and all things government....fucking teenage anarchist. So compared to then I've definitely sold out. I'm commuting to work, at a respectable place where I have to wear nice clothes and tend to my hygiene...definitely selling out to anarchist punk rock young me.
The difference between Biden and Obama in 2008 is a lot smaller than HRC and Sanders in 2016, though. And the DNC didn't undermine HRC or Biden in favor of Obama in 2008, either.
I see your point and agree with it, I'm just making a couple of distinctions.
