Dear DU Admin, please consider limiting Hillary vs Bernie infighting threads [View all]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by NH Ethylene (a host of the General Discussion forum).

With Hillary's book - What Happened - soon to be released, the H vs B dissing is ramping up like a coming storm.

In the past post primaries on DU, I believe Skinner set a date and posted after (said date) all infighting would either cease or move to it's own section outside the main discussion forums.

Winning in 2018 and beginning to reverse the fascist, bigoted, and radically unstable/incompetent regime of tRump needs all hands on deck and a laser beam focus.

Thanks for your consideration!
