So why are you voting for Hillary, considering she is getting most of her campaign finances from wealthy donors, and is making expensive speeches to Wall Street executives? Sure, she won't drag the country back to the 1950s, but she's in the pocket of the billionaire class just as much as any republican.

That's the thing, Sanders really isn't. You can look back at his 40 year career in politics, and the guy is seemingly incorruptible. His positions don't change, he doesn't have any scandals, he doesn't take money from corporate lobbyists.
I mean, just take a look at the numbers:
Bernie Sanders: https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/...=n00000528
Hillary Clinton: https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/...cle=Career
Over the course of their careers, the biggest donors to Sanders were workers unions. The biggest donors to Clinton were Wall St banks.
