Scared enough by Clinton to vote for Sanders rather than Stein

Great! Quite thorough! I especially like the parts about age, about abortion, about the topics on which writer Mimi Yahn disagrees with Bernie Sanders.

I was coming around to Sanders (from a Jill Stein–only approach) even before the “defense of Hillary” by Gloria Steinem and noted criminal Madeleine Albright. I had grown convinced there is hardly a war Hillary Clinton would not negotiate away from, and she likely would get us involved more deeply in something in the Middle East by the day after inauguration day.

Clinton is stuck in that belligerent brand of feminism that believes women can do anything men can do and do it better and more fiercely - and with something to prove in the war arena, we will all suffer.

I am scared enough by Clinton to vote more pragmatically for Sanders rather than Stein, whom I'd actually rather see in Washington, D.C. Stein stands for everything Sanders does, but she is a woman, and she holds better positions on several issues.
