Bernie does better in all matchups, and he does better with Independents than Hillary.

You know, "independents", the voting block that decides potus elections in the United States?

Because they think all the republicans suck and they think Clinton is a dishonest, scheming phony (their words) and don't want more political dynasties.

I don't think they're afraid of Clinton in a primary by any means. Except that they'd have to hold their noses and vote for whatever loser the Republicans nominate.

It's like an entire movement! A political one! Such an unexpected twist in the plot!

The suspense is terrible! I hope it lasts.

For their intelligence.

Boy will he be surprised to see all the match up polls showing Hilary losing in a landslide while Bernie wins easily.

In the end it will be good for him however, as Bernie's policies are the only ones on the table that may actually improve his life.
