Ten Reasons Why Hillary lost - And they are probably not what you thought

[JonLP24]

72. Like I said at the time when he was

Finding out how much support he has before he declared he said repeatedly this wasn't about Hillary Clinton who he praised at the time and when asked if she supports similar policies hevsaid "you'll have to ask her".

As far as his support I can't say why others didn't favor him as much except to say lack of name recognition and his record was likely unfamiliar for voters who never heard of him until the primary election coverage.

To me I think he has a record anyone can get behind.

Sanders has built a reputation as a leading progressive voice on issues such as campaign finance reform, corporate welfare, global warming, income inequality, LGBT rights, parental leave, and universal healthcare. Sanders has long been critical of U.S. foreign policy and was an early and outspoken opponent of the Iraq War, the First Gulf War, and U.S. support for the Contras in Nicaragua. He is also outspoken on civil liberties and civil rights, particularly criticizing racial discrimination in the criminal justice system as well as advocating for privacy rights against mass surveillance policies such as the USA PATRIOT Act and the NSA surveillance programs.
