36. Scary, how? Good? Bad?

That Bernie is appealing to a wide audience. ... Democrats, Republicans, Independents. ... I don't see anything scary about it whatsoever. His values align with mine. That people are rethinking about which politicians are best aligned with their values is IMO a good thing.

People aligning with Donald Trump. ... now that I find scary because his values don't line up with mine. He seems to have acquired the Tea party base, so not exactly a cross party platform.

At the end of the day, as long as we have someone on the Democratic Party ticket win the general election in November 2016 then we'll be in a good place for the country to go forth and prosper.
