I just saw him speak at my work a few weeks ago. I've always liked Bernie but... he really knows his stuff, guys. I mean I really believe that if anyone can pull this off, it's him. He's extremely genuine and knowledgeable and personable. He has a wit that can do well against any opposition. He understands what the issues are, what can be done to fix them, and what parts of the government are truly fucked up. I don't see him being one to back down from his principles either.

I obviously don't know what can happen in the election. His chances are so damn slim, but in this age, I think if he gets the word out well to the millenials, he has a shot at the least.
