Bernie, Santa have too much in common

I like Bernie Sanders. I also like Mr. Rogers and Santa Claus. The difference is that with the latter two, I had some hope they'd fulfill their promises. Bernie cannot, and he must know it.

If he doesn't, he has no business throwing himself into the presidential arena. You may not like Hillary personally, but she has political allies and experience that will allow her to move the socially beneficial ball forward.

Bernie's administration would be nothing but a disappointment. You dreamers will walk away from him in four years, and we'll have another destructive Republican as president.

Love Bernie, but vote for Hillary.
