Look me in the eye. On November the 8th, 2016, one of two things will happen: Hillary Clinton will become president, or Donald Trump will become president. These are the only two possibilities. The superdelegates aren\u2019t going to switch. An indictment isn\u2019t coming. There is no third possibility. There is no space between the spaces where you can hide. Every vote for Donald Trump requires two Hilary Clinton votes to overcome. A Hillary Clinton vote can only be overcome by two Donald Trump votes. If you stay home, a Donald Trump vote doubles its power. This is the real, actual reality of the situation. There is not one other option.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And there\u2019s no <i>ctrl-alt-del<\/i> for the election. Read up on 2000 if you doubt this.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And to those of us who supported Bernie, he WANTS you to vote for Hillary. If you believe in him and his mission you will follow his advice. He knows that writing his name in, or voting for anyone else besides Clinton, is effectively voting for Trump.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Refusing to vote for Hillary is a vote for Trump, no matter how much you scream and say how it\u2019s not. And if you\u2019re standing by to do nothing in regards to taking down Trump, then you ARE grouped along with the rest of the people in this country that ruin things for everybody else.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>No, seriously, go read about the presidential election in 2000.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>If you weren\u2019t old enough to remember and\/or understand the ramifications of the 2000 election, I WILL TELL YOU. <\/p>\n<p>Do not let Trump win. Please. I beg you. I went to grad school with people who voted for Nader in 2000 and my FB feed is full of them begging others not to make the same mistake they did. Bernie has his priorities straight, and the priority is stopping Trump.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And if <i>that <\/i>doesn\u2019t do it for you, this is the Republican platform 2016.
