Your post is not germane because I don't view you as an independent. It does show that you would stand with a fringe group of Dems though.

I think most regulars on this forum are independent but you may disagree. Just that some are left leaning and some are right leaning. I consider Bernie an independent but calls himself a Democrat since without a party affiliation, it is near impossible to mount a national campaign. Tea Party adherents are extreme right and Hillarybots are shameless.

This is a hardcore Democrat forum.
What you "consider" flies in the face of reality. Hillary is a War Hawk & a Wall Street animal. I always hear Dems rip the street. Sanders is a Lib.
I'll let you speak about Hillary supporters, but the T.P. is full of Libertarians looking for a solution, a party, & a way to win against a bunch of liars who call themselves Republicans and/or Conservatives.

You make the TEA Party sound like noble cause but we all know better. And all politicians are liars since they are mostly made up of lawyers who are professional liars.

Actually, this forum, though mostly left leaning isn't a "Democrat forum" and, except for Bob, there aren't any hardcore Dems at all. In fact, I'm willing to bet that a lot of the people you think are dyed in the wool Democrats are independents whose last party affiliation was Republican. Some may even still be Republicans but are fed up with the mindless hate and selfishness that has infected the party.

Personally, I'm considerably farther left than the Democrats. I'm a registered Democrat because, until recently, California was a closed primary state. You had to be registered in the party whose primary you wanted to vote in and I sure as shit wasn't going to vote for the asshole Republicans they have out here or for any Republican presidential candidate that's come along since I was of voting age.

And Sanders is something other than a "lib". He's a Democratic So************************t, something most liberals are a bit uncomfortable with. If you want to stick an American label on Bernie, I suppose he's a "New Dealer". What he really wants to do is repair the damage that Republicans have done to FDR's programs and then continue making social progress. For me, that would be a good start.

And now for the Libertarians. They're just a bunch of freeloading candyasses who want to have access to everything the government provides like roads or the National Weather Service (to tell them to come in out of the rain) or an army to keep them safe from all those scary brown people but they don't want to pay for any of this and they don't want to be responsible members of a society where what I do affects you and what you do affects me. Really, Libertarians are just spoiled children in more or less grown up bodies.

If goppers didn't gerrymander districts we wouldn't be talking about these morans.

Libertarians are basically Waterboys for the Plutocrats.

B.S. Nothing but the Democrat party play book from an old radical that never got his way.
