At this point, I'm hoping it comes down to him or Warren. Also, the video makes a great point. People like to point at Sanders' legislative record and say he hasn't accomplished much (I'd argue differently), but the fact that he has been able to mobilize thousands of people within the last few years behind a $15/hr minimum wage and actually pressure companies into adopting it shows how viable his "political revolution" can really be if enough people get behind an issue and demand action.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
