“I am a Sanders supporter,” says Matt Paine from central Oregon while walking through Philadelphia selling Hillary Clinton buttons. “It’s become very apparent though that Sanders is not going to get the nomination. And to my fellow Sanders supporters, we need to look at what happened in the 2000 election, when enough ‘Nader or Bust’ people insisted on voting for their third party candidate to swing the election to George W. Bush.
“You might be frustrated with Hillary, but the woman has spent 50 years fighting the fight in an ugly, ugly game. And I don’t think you can get into that game without making some compromises during the way. I would still consider myself a Sanders supporter at heart, but I am going to do everything in my power to help get Hillary elected this year.”
