Exactly how did she screw over Bernie? I like Bernie, but a self-proclaimed socialist is not going to win the nomination much less the Presidency at this time in history. The Boomers are along with the Millennials are the largest voting blocks and the old folks will vote in large numbers. To most Boomers the word "socialist" equals communism. Unfortunately that is the way they think. I am about as liberal as you can get, but I am also practical. Bernie's angry old man bit doesn't play well with the masses.

A democracy will only work with compromise. We have watched democracy failing in this country for almost three decades as the republicans refuse to compromise on anything including money for infrastructure and health care, both of which they know we desperately need.
