Hillary will divide Democrats as much as Trump has divided the Republicans.
This is the way I see it.

Although I might add, IMO it's the Hillary supporters who are dividing the dems. Their insistence that Sanders supporters automatically switch allegiance to Hillary has become very off-putting. I never did like "my way or the highway".

It occurs to me that republicans seem to view black, Mexican, LGBT, Muslims and poor people in the same light as Nazi Germans once viewed Jewish people. We must be vigilant that it goes no further.
