Most Bernie supporters, at least me, know exactly why, in terms of issues, we're supporting Bernie. For me it is single payer healthcare, stronger Social Security and free tuition at state colleges.Those three things would a) help me and my family substantially, b) be better for the American people in general, and c) stimulate the economy to create millions of jobs (when you add in his opposition to the TPP, his desire for massive public infrastructure projects and his proposed raise in minimum wage to $15/hr.

Here's a great link to a study done on Sanders' single payer proposal by an economist that spells out some of these benefits.
