13. I like Bernie Sanders, a lot.

I like that he's not afraid to acknowledge that he's a socialist--I'm one, too, and there aren't many of us in the US.

But I'm supporting Hillary in the primary and looking forward to voting for her in the general. She's good on the issues at home and is known and respected by other heads of government; she has working relationships with them already. And I think she's strong enough to carry other Democrats with her. We have got to retake Congress; that's imperative.

Bernie Sanders is good on the issues. Unfortunately, I don't think he can win, and a loss next year will be catastrophic. We can't afford him.
