If Senator Sanders decides to run as an independent (an unlikely but still possible thing), you will hear, from all quarters, the same old litany of arguments about how third parties never win in America. So I guess you might as well concede the argument and tell them that, yes, you're going to vote Democrat, because God forbid the Whigs should win the election.
The Whigs?

We Live in A Sick Society: Voice Star Shot Dead Signing Autographs
Submitted by Steven D on Sat, 06/11/2016 - 10:25amI watch The Voice because my Daughter makes me, but in truth there are many talented people who appear on that show. Christina Grimmie was one of them that was a favorite of both my daughter and I.
I will not vote for Hillary (analysis appended).

No, Mr. Sorkin, "Capitalism" didn't do that.

The guests included Barbara Boxer, Katie Packer, Andrew Ross Sorkin, Ana Marie Cox and Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine). The latter was basically the lone sane voice, when it came to the brief discussion of capitalism and socialism, both during the show and "overtime." But he was all but shouted down when he tried to school the panelists and Maher on their errors.

People are just a little bit too angry about, well, you know, a certain stolen election, and I don't think that is gonna change by November.
Ah, but I have a solution.
