Yes, death threats are unfortunately common in politics. If Senator Sanders were elected president, I'm sure in my heart that an assassination [inside] attempt would have been exercised. Probably successful. I feel some relief that he was denied his run for that office by the Clinton-DWS DNC.
I see that the usual suspects have still been at play. For some, it may take years into their golden years to outgrow, [if ever], although I have grown somewhat accustom to this behavior. Their lies do become ridiculous at times, but so have the many lies by Mr Trump. It's all elementary, my dear Watson.
A terrific congratulations goes out to one of Senator Sanders's 2016 campaign workers, Ms Ocasio-Cortez, for her win last night! Very impressive!!! A political movement is still in progress. Out of everything that is wrong with our modern day politics, I'm extremely glad to sense a possible huge change coming about in the near future.
2018 primaries: Key takeaways as Democrats get a shock

She raised $300,000 to her opponent's $3.3 million, but it was enough for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's first run for office in a New York City district covering parts of Queens and the Bronx to defeat 10-term Rep. Joe Crowley and
send shock waves through the House Democratic caucus.
The Bronx-born Ocasio-Cortez, 28, was the first primary challenger Crowley had faced in 14 years. Her win comes as Democratic primaries around the country have seen
scraps between the party's progressive wing and the Washington establishment.
“We meet a machine
with a movement, and that is what we have done today,” Ocasio-Cortez said Tuesday night, according to The Associated Press. “
Working-class Americans want a clear champion and there is nothing radical about moral clarity in 2018.”
"
A new political era is dawning —
and the rusting and reluctant political establishment will wake up or be woken," Levin said.
