More and more I #feelthebern I'm also afraid of what will happen to a) the supreme court b) Women's rights and c) international relations if Trump is elected.

Because I just saw this and it's applicable, not that I am calling anyone an idiot...

We actually went out and caucused for Bernie. He's stayed true to his stance since the 70s and I respect that. It really disgusts me that the Human Rights Campaign endorsed Hillary considering she's flip flopped on LGTBQ issues based on what was the "social norm". Bernie's been about equality since the 70s. I'm neither Republican nor Democrat, I just go off of whoever I agree most with. If Bernie doesn't win the nomination, I'll vote Hillary, just because I cannot vote Republican. I don't believe your religious beliefs should be anywhere in your campaign. Honestly though, I hope Kasich is able to pull it off, because he is really the only seemingly decent Republican running and I do feel a little bad for the Republicans with their options.

My honest to god hope for the Republican Party is that it goes to convention and someone better comes out of nowhere and decides to run and gets the nod. Anyone else is better than this bunch of nut jobs.

I am a huge Hillary supporter and I believe she will make some really good changes for our future. But I am with Erica. I wish her views on the LGBTQ community came sooner rather than later. If she doesn't get the nomination I will vote for Bernie. Kasich scares me far more less than Cruz and Trump.

Ya I don't really like anyone. I'm nearly in the middle when it comes to sides. I feel like the election is becoming a middle school popularity contest

If anyone is so inclined there is a great site called isidewith.com that is a very detailed quiz type thing that will tell you which candidates your views most closely align with. It's really great, not a superficial little buzzfeed quiz.

That is a pretty good quiz. I got Austin Peterson. Not sure if that helps too much.

It's really great, not a superficial little buzzfeed quiz. I loved taking that quiz. Especially when you go to the ALL ANSWERS drop down and pick something that isn't Yes/No. Technically I sided with Hillary on that quiz, and that is ok with me. I do share certain beliefs, I just don't particularly care for her as a person (she seems very cold and there is just something about her that I don't love)

Can I just say, this is the most civil, respectful political discussion ever. I think candidates should start using memes at debates. It's very effective. ?

Sounds like a plan. It would be more entertaining that way at least.

I sent @bluejane92's meme to DH I thought it was so funny. Also...I'm on The Nest politics forum and it's pretty dead like all the other forums over there, but the girls who are on it are so civil and insightful. I've learned so much from them
