How A Bernie Sanders Supporter Is Coping With A Hillary Clinton Future

On July 25, 2016, Bernie Sanders spoke at the Democratic National Convention. It was clear that the Bernie supporters had come out to see him, shown by the floods of people with signs with ideas similar to that of "Bernie or Bust". But by the end of Bernie's 30 minute speech, the crowd was shown again and instead people were seen holding up "Bernie" signs on top of Hillary's "I'm With Her", so they now said "Bernie With Her".

I agree with Sarah Silverman, "Bernie or bust people are ridiculous."

Bernie started a revolution, that will not end until things improve, but revolutions take time. He showed that the United States is ready for a change just by the large amount of support he got. Flashback to when Bernie first started his campaign, people thought that it was a joke that a socialist would even have a chance, but boy did he show them wrong.

He united a lot of people who saw problems with our country and showed that together we can and we will make change. All is not lost. Bernie may not be the presidential nominee but that does not mean this fire has gone out, "berns" don't go away that fast. But for this revolution to continue, Donald Trump can not become president and the absolute only way to prevent that from happening is to vote for Hillary Clinton.

I don't like Hillary, to be straightforward, I think she is too closely connected with big banks/business. But all this being said. she is not a fascist and I do not think the Bernie or bust people realize what a vast difference this really is. This is not the election to vote for a third party candidate or decide to not vote to make a stand against the electoral process. If you are doing this then you are basically giving another vote for Trump.

It is hard for me to vote for Hillary too, I feel like she has no respect for Bernie supporters, and honestly Trump may be trying harder to get Bernie supporters votes. Bernie's fight is not over, but it will be if we vote for Trump. Our country still has a chance if Hillary becomes president. With a Trump presidency, this country will end up in a deep hole that will take years to fix. We want to continue the revolution not stop it. A vote for Hillary is a chance at a future to believe in.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
