ATTENTION! THIS IS A PSA! DO NOT WRITE BERNIE INTO THE BALLOT!
BERNIE DOES NOT WANT YOU TO WRITE HIM INTO THE BALLET! THAT’S WHY HE SAID HE’S NOT GOING TO RUN AS AN INDEPENDENT, BECAUSE HE “DOES NOT WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ELECTING SOME RIGHT-WING REPUBLICAN TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” HIS. EXACT. WORDS.
(if you don’t want to watch the full video, the quote is at 1:41).
Listen, the last time something like this happened, Ralph Nader run in the Green party and split the Democratic votes between Nader and Gore. Which allowed for George W. Bush to become president.
DO YOU WANT THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN TO TRUMP?
The two-party system sucks, but pretty much the way our system is set up, any vote that is not for the Democratic nominee will be for Trump. The only votes that count against Trump are for the Democratic nominee, whoever that may be.
So don’t write anybody in. It’s throwing away your vote. You might think it’s a political statement and in another election I might advocate for it, but THERE IS THE LEGITIMATE CHANCE THAT DONALD TRUMP COULD BE ELECTED INTO OFFICE. And nobody, particularly not Hillary Clinton, is a bad enough alternative that it is worth running the risk. Remember what it was like when Bush was in office? Trump will be that times 1000x, with extra blatant xenophobia, racism, homophobia, and misandry thrown on top.
I’m pro-Bernie, but I’m much more anti-Trump. Whoever runs against Trump in the Democratic party has my vote. I hope he or she has yours too.
