I think we're supposed to study one candidate.... his/her positions, talents, weaknesses, strengths, personal qualities, philosophy, etc....... and compare all those things to those of the OTHER candidate(s).

It seems to me that's whole point.

What else can we do besides "compare"?

Maybe I'm missing something.

seen much of that yet.
Hillary adopting Bernie's platform. Hillary asking Bernie to concede. Hillary has less followers than Bernie
None of that is about the issues.

he can't win and is only in to raise issues and pull Hillary left.

In that respect, liberal positions adopted by Hillary could be signs of Bernie's effectiveness. And the comment is about how good Bernie is at what he does.

I find that very stable and unwavering as opposed to forming standings on issues after deciding to run.

There are 2 Dem candidates. There are necessarily going to be comparisons. Get over it.
