...but you won't so why even bring it up ?
Actually I will likely be maxing out. I give $30 monthly and extra when I have a good week.

It's broke college students, so at least half of them are potheads.
Bernie is the Ron Paul of this election cycle.
The myth that only college students and millenials support Sanders is hilarious.
Yes, he has a ton of support from that demographic, but attend a rally and you will see easily 50% is not from either of those groups.

What does that do for him? She's buying institutional acceptance, he's antagonizing the powers that be.
We've seen this story played out a thousand times. Radical change incites a reactionary response.
The political system in the United States is structured to protect the status quo, how can Bernie Sanders realistically change America? Obama was a hundred times the politician, and he accommodated to political reality to accomplish the little he has.
Bernie Sanders is a dead end.
Institutions don't vote (yet give it a few more years as we are going and they likely will be).
This "story" as you put it has never happened in our lifetimes, and when it has happened it happened in a tidal wave that left this country with many of its best leaders and strongest economies and societies.
Bernie is the only candidate that isn't a dead end.
