[Magdalen] Bernie

[Grace Cangialosi]

That's exactly where I am, Roger. I will vote for the Democratic candidate, period!  But for now I'm supporting Bernie because I like the issues he's raising, and I think it may help focus the attention of Hilary and whoever else decides to run.

If he does not get the nomination then you will vote for the person who is likely to be the candidate rather than abstain or vote for the Republican candidate.  That is how I believe it should be in the US system.  When I was in Florida last year, long before alternative candidates for the Democrat's nomination appeared, somebody said to me that she dodn't want Hillary but would vote for her in preference to a Republican.
