This coming from an independent I think he is garnering the minority support. Sanders has made comments that many candidates have not spoken on and has even come to bat for Hillary Clinton on certain subjects.

I am still on the fence about Sanders. I think he is too old also.

Never been on the fence. Sanders is too old and dumb. The guy will be 75 when he takes office if he wins.. You see how the office of the President has aged Obama, just image how it will age Sanders, he will look like death.
Sanders doesn't stand a chance in the big Blue states against Clinton. The election will be won in the Electoral College not the primaries. Never been sold on Sanders and never will be. Sanders is popular in the extreme Northeast and down South among a few blacks.
Clinton's running mate will probably be Julian Castro, not "Old Man River" (Sanders).

How is he dumb ?? That was a poor choice of words. Only dumb person in this race period is Donald Trump.
Michigan is considered an upset by Sanders. I think that trade was the big issue. I think he should have used it in South Carolina, which along with North Carolina is big on textiles.
Clinton got 65% of the Black vote, her lowest percentage. Her next lowest percentage was 76% in Nevada.

Julian Castro would get mopped in a VP debate. Being the mayor of SA and a cabinet member does not make him qualified for VP. Democrats are only on that band wagon because he's young and Mexican. At this point, his twin has almost as much a case as he does since he's atleast currently holding an elected office. Hillary fans can say what they want but Sanders' win in Michigan raises ALOT of red flags. Hillary's lies and flip flopping on trade will definitely hurt her in the general election in the Midwest. The "Big Blue" states are gonna always be blue but if trade becomes an issue in a swing state like Ohio or even a state like Michigan, the electoral math isn't going to add up for the Dems.

He has a great chance of winning. Last I looked there were only 200 delegates that separate the two and with California coming up ( which I think he will win) that gap will be closed considerably.
Look for Sanders to make a huge move in the next coming weeks because primarily of the YOUTH vote. Hiller still has that albatross around her neck from the trade agreement that Bill made and the war on drugs that broken so many families because of mandatory sentencing even over the most minor offenses.
Elizabeth Warren would be a great choice for either as a VP. But don't be surprise if there's a black women nominated for the post if Bernie is elected.
