If the question was "Who are you voting for?" then Bernie. But honestly, for this question, I'm undecided. Lean Hillary I guess.

BTW, this is exactly how PPP - and I assume others too - pose the question.

I've found Bernie Sanders to be an actual fighter for the people and has had good, consistent values, no matter what office he ran for, from Mayor to Senator to President. His support of universal health care and debt free college really speak to me, and I find that he has been not only a more effective Senator than Hillary Clinton, but he would be a more effective President.

Worded this way, O'Malley. Who am I voting for? Sanders.

He's got a lot of accomplishments.

At this point, it's doubtful I'll vote in the Democratic primary. Even if Bernie should be able to surge to the point where he has a chance of winning South Carolina, he'll get the nomination, so voting in the Democratic primary here looks to be pointless. Only if the Republican primary looks equally pointless to me by then, which is highly unlikely with so many candidates, would I bother to vote for Bernie, who I think is currently the best choice out of either party.

The delegates in the Democratic primary are awarded proportionally both at the statewide level and at the congressional district level, so it isn't just who wins a state that matters. In fact, the winner could even end up with fewer delegates, such as what happened in the 2008 Nevada caucus.

How?

Just in numbers, I believe the # of amendments passed by Sanders compared to Clinton was 200something to 90something. Of course that's not even including how substantive they are, but I'm just trying to find my source of that information.

Well considering the fact that he's been in Congress for double the amount of time as Clinton, it kinda makes sense for him to have double the amount of amendments.

Well considering the fact that Rubio's been in Congress, it kinda makes sense for him to have more experience than Ben Carson.

IMHO Bernie doesn't want to be the nominee. All Bernie wanted to do was force Hillary to move further to the left during the primary season than she otherwise would've. I truly believe Bernie knows the Democratic Party is better positioned to win the presidency again with Hillary at the helm than himself. This seems especially obvious when following the Louisiana Governor race. John Bel has a fire in his belly (showing a true desire to win) unlike her opponents. They both seem to be going through the motions.
