    Using words on people who don't listen is never going to work. 

    Michelle Obama told them they are being ridiculous.   Bernie said as much.   There is nothing to be done with loose cannons who cannot think for themselves who think they are thinking for themselves.  They are so blind they cannot see that they are not supporting nothing but Trump's election.

    This is by far the craziest election cycle I`ve ever witnessed. The Bernie supporters (not all of them) seem to enjoy being angry and protesting when they don`t get everything they want, but that`s life....that`s just my observation. Maybe being fed up is just the current mood of the country. Whatever it is, both parties seem to be having issues they didn`t count on and you have to wonder how all this craziness will effect voter turnout in November.

    1. Bernie is the leader of a political movement, but he did not start it. A movement starts with small groups who feel they are being disenfranchised and are frustrated, so they find a leader who will support their wishes. They will rebel if he doesn't.
    2. Many of Bernie's supporters are young, white, middle-class people. Many are students or recent graduates who have acquired a huge debt they will never pay off. If you look at all the progressive measures they have put in the Democratic platform, you can see what they are unhappy with.
    3. Bernie kept telling his followers that he had started a revolution, but actually, people have been unhappy with lots of things for a long time. Remember the Occupy Movement?
    4. The presidential election has given movements a voice, because most of the time, the main media controls the conversation of the country. 5. However, this was only the first night of the convention. They will come around and unite the party.

    If you turn on someone whom you supported because he/she isn't following your demands I think you're nuts. The Bernie or Bust folks are so self-involved they booed at Bernie! They are full of it. A Dem version of the GOP Tea Party..which is to say they are useless. Thank you for your reply TiberiusQ! :)
