8. And so, why the endless negativity?

Of course those people making the endless stream of negative comments feel justified.

That does not make their comments necessarily accurate or, regardless of accuracy, productive.

What they do accomplish is creating division.

There is a reason why 49% of the DU'ers posting in the Primary forum are still undecided. And there are reasons why 14% of the posters continue to choose Sanders as their preferred candidate over Biden.

We all should respect our fellow DU-ers opinions in this and do our best to unite everyone behind who I consider to be our presumptive nominee, Joe Biden.

Endless streams of negative posts are, I feel, counter productive to this goal.

But, obviously, some people feel compelled to continue to make negative posts about candidates that will do nothing to change the eventual outcome of the primary process.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
