If Sanders Is The Nominee, Will You Vote?
This question doesn't apply to those solidly in the Trump or Sanders camp. Most of you will be voting. I'm asking those, like me, who see Sanders' flaws as potentially prohibitive of casting a vote in his name.
I've never been good at holding my nose and voting. I've never done it. I've never had to. We have "none of the above" here, and I've selected it three times: 2000, 2004 and 2016.
Those choices were easy to make. This year, I'd vote for an indicted ham sandwich over Trump. I just don't know if I can vote for Bernie. If I allow myself to vote for someone I find seriously flawed, for the sole purpose of defeating the opponent, then I become part of the problem. I don't believe I can do that.
My question revolves around turnout. If Sanders isn't the nominee, we can expect some Bernie supporters won't be voting. If Sanders is the nominee, how will that effect turnout among moderates who aren't voting for Trump? Will they hold their noses or stay home?

That's the difference between liberals and conservatives. Conservatives even got behind Hitler.
If Bernie Sanders is not the nominee, I shall not vote for any Presidential candidate in 2020, just as I refused to do in 2016.
If Bernie Sanders is the nominee, I shall vote for Donald Trump.
FDR was no conservsative but he backed Hitler. His economy and Hitlers were darned near mirror images.
The amount of times I heard will you vote for such and such candidate in February has been 3 and only one of them had any chance of winning the nomination at that point which was Mitt Romney in 2012. Sanders was winning this same time four years ago. He peaked and then Hillary ran away with it. I see no reason why he won't do something similar this time.

Has there ever been a candidate who isn't seriously flawed in some sense, known or unknown? It's all about what you focus on, the strengths or the weaknesses.

I'll vote, but it won't be for a deplorable or a socialist dreamer.
Well, except FDR didn't ban labor unions...
Who did you have in mind?
Hitler was one step deeper into socialism that FDR was allowed to be.

I will happily vote for the Democratic candidate over Trump. I am prepared to donate and lead registration drives. I am determined to get rid of Trump, more than I am determined to get a certain person elected
I don't think you understand what socialism is...
Socialism means working class ownership of the means of production. It gives power to the unions. It doesn't ban them.
...and now the Republicans are favoring Hitler. Awesome. You know, just like Democrats founded the KKK but now KKK members vote Republican. LOL
