We've made our decisions...

The wife and I are throwing our support behind Bernie, 100%.

Looking forward to casting our vote in Michigan on the 8th.

What is it that pushed you towards the Bern?

I have three kids and someday, if they'd like to go to college, I'd like them to have the benefits that Bernie is proposing.

I believe everyone deserves a fair and livable wage for their work.

I work in pharma and while the ACA was a nice step, I'd like to see further progress when it comes to universal healthcare.

My wife aligns with most of these as well.

I'm only 28 but I'm married and would love to establish myself in a career for the long term, but all 3 of my last jobs ended in a layoff in less than 2 years. I can't live like that, no one can.

That's my main reason for Bernie.
