1. He seems to be doing well in the polls

Honestly, I don't get all of this - are people hoping to convert people that post here to another candidate?

Does that even happen?

I like Bernie. I've met him (we didn't chat, but my daughter was in a contest that he hosts every year and was part of a group of students that were invited to the state house - he hosts a convo w/them that lasted about 1.5 hours).

His staff loved him. He was generous, sort of single minded (as he is) - and enthusiastic about kids expressing political opinions.

People in Vermont, generally, are very supportive of him. Plus (from my point of view) - he has driven the national conversation farther to the left - and I appreciate that.

FWIW, I don't see myself as nasty online. I don't mind that others have other opinions - and I never see myself as working to change other peoples mind (well, not usually!). Mostly, because it doesn't work.
