Bernie Sanders Says Voters Shouldn't Have to Choose Against Somebody

"I am running for president because I want to give the American people a real choice in this election. A choice not just to vote against somebody but to vote for a vision for where our great country can become," he said.

"It is very clear that Donald Trump's negative ratings are enormously high, unprecedented for a major party presidential candidate. And Secretary Clinton's negative ratings are also very, very high," he added.

A recent Quinnipiac national poll released this week, shows 49 percent of those polled have a strongly unfavorable view of Clinton. While that same poll shows 51 percent of those polled also have a strongly unfavorable view of Trump.

Sanders has called the current Democratic Party system "absurd" and promised to get rid of the super-delegate votes, but the fact remains that he would also need to win nearly 70 percent of the remaining pledged delegates as well to pull ahead of Clinton on that front. Sanders said he thinks he has a chance to win the majority of contests next Tuesday.

Amen.

6. No I'm not.

Don't pretend to know what motivates my vote, unless you've read the many times I've posted that information.

And if you have, don't lie about it.

I'm an issues voter. When it comes to candidates, I'm voting FOR a candidate who will do a decent job on the issues that drive me. I don't vote "against" people. That's a lesser evil vote, and I don't participate in that nonsense.
