I was/am a huge Bernie supporter and I loved the Clinton endorsement I actually hope he gets picked as her VP even though that's extremely unlikely
It'll in all likelihood be Tim Cain or Elizabeth Warren

You cannot take back the kinds of truths he spoke about her.
Carrie Gilroy, a delegate pledged to Sanders from the 25th Congressional District, said Tuesday's announcement was certainly a letdown.
"It's been a tough day. We were behind Bernie. He was our choice — he is our choice," Gilroy said. "This endorsement is not going to change too many minds. People want what they want, and they see this glimpse of an honest politician fighting for the people, and they're not going to give that up easily."
While the Irondequoit resident is committed to Sanders through her status as a delegate, Gilroy, 39, conceded Monroe County for Bernie Sanders may choose to change its title. Despite the disdain, though, the activism and call for change Sanders is credited for setting in motion is not likely to slow down, Gilroy said.
"It doesn’t matter who's endorsing who — the ideas are out of the box," Gilroy said. "I believe the political revolution Bernie Sanders started is here to stay. I don't think we're all just going to roll over and go back to the status quo."
Bernie Sanders supporters react to Clinton endorsement
the Bernie supporters seem mixed at best....a lot of them are not happy with the Hillary endorsement it seems
For those of you who were Bernie supporters on here, what is your take?
Is the democratic ticket the important thing?
Or is it Bernie's ideas and changing the status quo as one of these people said?
Once again the same can be said of Trump and the GOP, oh except that most Conservative leaders or candidates are Not endorsing Trump.Exactly.
For 6 months Bernie has been stating his position and attacking Hillary with those truths.
Now that he's sold out on all his previous positions and legitimate criticism of her, and had gone and endorsed her
. . . .
What exactly ARE Bernie supporters supposed to think? Sold down the river would seem to be most appropriate.

Same question can be asked of the Conservatives in the GOP that got stuck with a Liberal, Trump. There are shakeups coming for Both Parties, GOOD.
I am also looking forward to the big shakeups that are coming. Both parties are guilty of becoming complacent and paying more attention to the big donors rather than the voters.
No, not really.
Bernie's endorsement is a complete reversal of his previously stated positions / opinions as stated in his stump speeches during the primary.
Not the same thing with the establishment GOP leaders who weren't pro-Trump from the very beginning of the primary.

And their conservative supporters who got the same raw deal, you are stuck with Trump just as Bernie fans are stuck with Hillary. The rest of us are just Stuck.
That's not an unreasonable assessment of where the nation and it's electorate are at this point.
Sadly that is where we are, history is interesting to watch unfold, but sometimes it can also be sad to see in action.
Perhaps this will serve as one massive WAKE THE **** UP CALL!! to both the establishment political parties as well as the biased media, as well as the inattentive electorate.
Frankly, all three need a serious wake up call. Perhaps this is it.
