‘College Students for Bernie’ chapters explode nationwide

‘College Students for Bernie’ chapters explode nationwide; members bash Hillary as fake

Not all college students are Ready for Hillary.

Some 164 “College Students for Bernie” groups have sprung up in recent months on college campuses nationwide, according a chapter roster maintained by The Action Network. Students say he offers a more authentic, honest choice compared to frontrunner Clinton.

“No one I know really likes Hillary Clinton at this point,” Brendan Eprile, president of the Oberlin chapter, told The College Fix in an email. “Hillary Clinton is a chameleon: she will side with the issues that she thinks will give her the best press. I think honestly, most people I know don’t trust Hillary Clinton. It doesn’t seem like she actually cares about the American people as a whole.”

Jordan Incorvaia, president of the Penn State chapter, told The College Fix Sanders says what he believes, and what he’s fighting for will help the nation.

I don't recall America's youth ever getting involved in politics to the extent that they are this go-round; especially this far out from the election.

And Mr. Eprile clearly sees straight through HRH and knows exactly what she is.

It's their future, and Bernie is one of the two candidates that get it. O'Malley does as well, and I have great respect for him, but Berhie has the momentum and the backing to get this done.
