32. That is the term used by many. We have a problem in that Hillary's supporters

and the press have assumed her win. Ain't necessarily so. Ain't necessarily so.

Americans are hungry for Bernie's message.

For example, Hillary offers growth as the solution to our economic problems. Bernie points out that growth alone without a log of income redistribution will only help those at the very top of our economy, the richest among us because in recent years, the benefits won through growth have been going disproportionately to the very rich.

Bernie's ideas and solutions on problem after problem, like his ideas on the economy, are just better and resonate better in voters.

Poor Hillary. I'm sorry if that makes Hillary supporters feel bad.
