IMHO there are a host of reasons to not support Sanders. He is not able to defend basic tenants we all stand for. Questions about, civil right, abortion, the minimum wage have left him stuttering. He is disorganized, not being able to meet the requirements of campaigning in 2916 without pleading for special treatment. He use mud slinging against his 2016 opponent after promising to campaign on the issues. Finally where are the policy papers that outline his proposals? He gets an E for effort for proposing positive initiatives, but has never shown his paper work.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
