No, what makes me angry is that people think in terms of utopias.
Outside the issue of politics, even in the cliche of "chasing your dreams", how many people become billionaires vs those who do not? How many people become famous actors vs those who do not? How many people become famous comedians vs those who do not? How many people become famous musicians on par vs the Beatles, vs those who don't become famous? How many pee wee league, highschool players and college players make it to the NFL, vs those who do not?
There is nothing wrong with having a back up plan if you don't get that perfect situation you want.
Bernie WAS my first choice last time. I voted for Hillary because she was my back up plan.
If your back up plan is sitting out, and that ends up allowing a dangerous person to win, that is not a strategy to me.
So why shouldn't Bernie be your first choice this time? (not that I think that you actually vote in any primaries).
We do not inherit the world from our parents. We borrow it from our children.
