I wanted to whoever for un-banning me from this group.

That's all.

I didn't think, the one post here that got me banned was all that critical of Hillary but that's water way under the bridge at this point.

I'm 100% behind Hills now that Bernie is out and I thought it was very fair and Statesman-like that he and his people were allowed so much say so in constructing the D platform. More than fair.

SO, onward to victory in Nov and let's all do everything we can to help the down ticket Dem Senate and House candidates in order to give her (and us) a legislative branch that we can work with to get some of the progressive issues front and center and fill all the many vacancies in the Judicial Branch filled with fair minded, sane individuals.

Again, Thanks!

There's still some bad blood from the primaries, but just as your behind Hillary so should we be behind Bernie. He did his part gracefully accepting Hillary as the democratic nominee and I'm happy to put everything else in the rear view mirror. He's not out. His message is a great one and he's still the late great senator from Vermont carrying a yuge following right behind him. I'm just happy I don't have to pick between two great people anymore.

We're all in this together!
Welcome back

You are right, of course, he still has a yuuuge part to play

His position in the Senate will now, no doubt, carry more weight in the coming years.

If we manage to take the Senate back, I wonder what committee would be most appropriate and useful for for him to be appointed to - provided he'll accept it, of course.

HRC's team was so gracious with with the platform input, and his endorsements aferward, I can't see him being denied much in that regard.
