Welcome back, Hal!
I don't agree with your choice of not voting for Bernie in the primary but good to see you again.

A lot of co-workers were not going to vote in Oregon's May 17th primary, because it was assumed that Hillary had the nom locked-up.

There was a lot of jubilation and happy campers at work yesterday evening because of Bernie's win in Indiana last night. smile

Just a thought here. Upon reflection there is a phrase tossed about endlessly today that defines a certain demographic:

People of Color.

I absolutely despise that phrase........... It drives me up the wall.......... Perhaps I should be relegated to the basement. I don’t care. That phrase simply must be tossed into the dustbin of history.

Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

It’s all relative… but also interesting why CHB which pre-dated other political sites didn’t morph into the high volume political websites, from Dudge to HuffPo, which also started small. Maybe just luck… of course HuffPo shouldn’t really be used because Arianna was pretty well known and had tons of money.
Somebody may write a book about the evolution of the websites that actually went from one-person endeavors to ones which made money and hired staff, who themselves became TV pundits.

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
