Bernie or Hillary

Either Bernie or Hillary is fine with me. The stakes are huge and those who say they wouldn't vote for one or the other if they get the nomination are not Democrats in my mind.

I will probably vote for Bernie in my Massachusetts primary, but in reality Hillary is the one raising money for down ticket Democrats. While she has raised (27) millions to elect other Democrats, Bernie has not been able to extend any financial help to Democrats running to defeat Republicans.

Whoever the president ends up being, he/she will need the support of other Democrats to get anything done at all for the people.

We all know that big money must be taken out of politics, but it will never happen if we can't elect Democrats and change the court. Bernie's ideas have permeated the Democrat electorate so even if Hillary wins she will be running a Bernie influenced agenda.
