My 22 year old son on Bernie versus HRC

[Sancho]

49. Your son sounds a lot like my college students!

Actually, the younger women are very interested in Hillary's support of women's rights internationally.

Many 20-somethings in Florida do not know Bernie, but the ones who do like him. Many more like Hillary for the work over the years on behalf of women, and a perception that she is more understanding of immigrants. Even before her "path to citizenship", she was popular with the international crowd.

I've heard a few others respond to Bernie's radio show (on Thom Hartman) and say he is "harsh" too.
At any rate, your son seem perceptive and thoughtful.

With my older (mostly GOP) neighbors, there is a bit of anti-semitism. I realize it's not overt, but I hear it and it would be disingenuous to ignore it. I don't know if that would make a big difference in an election with the hard core repubs, but it might make a little difference in the independent, protestant crowd if they had to choose Bernie vs. Hillary. The mission crowd have often run parallel to Clinton foundation projects, and they think positively about them while they sometimes lack support for some of Israel's policies. In purple states that come down to a few hundred votes, little things count.

Interesting post.
