He seems to be genuinely against her kind of politics.I think Bernie is more shrewd than that. Also, his job for the last 8 months has been to tear down her politics. This is the nature of our election system, we need to make out opponents look like evil monsters from the deep. Now, Hillary has done that herself, and she has helped Bernie at every turn by being a snake and a liar. I don't trust a thing she says. I do think she is the most liberal candidate left in the race, (Bernie left in the race only serves to pull her to the left farther in order to wrap it up), and I do think if the choices are literally Hillary or Trump, to me the choice is easy.

'Liberal demographic' =/= Hillary fan. My existence is proof by counterexample.

Your right about Cory Booker, he would add a good balance to the ticket. You also have account for the dems who don't like or trust Hillary; I know that I don't want see her in office, if it comes to Hillary and Trump a lot of people will be staying home. If we had a stronger third party option I'd be voting that way. That point aside, she needs more appeal to the national level. I'd would of loved to have seen a Sanders and Warren ticket, that would of been the perfect ticket. Clinton and Booker would be a good choice, on the other hand though if all we can muster is Hillary were in trouble as a country. Our best hope lye's in Sanders ability to kick it up and win the nomination. If he does not make it I'm staying home in November.
So, wait, are you done arguing that the country isn't ready for an all female ticket?
Look, I don't like or trust Hillary. Do I trust that she legitimately has the middle/lower class interests in mind? No. Do I think she'll do anything to close the wage gap or reign in Wall St? No. Do I think she'll do a damn thing to push Congress to repeal Citizen's United with a Constitutional Amendment? No Clue. Do I think she won't roll back all of the social change we've accomplished in the last 10 years? Yes. Do I think 2-3 liberal/moderate Supreme Court Justices is the most important thing we're facing in this election? Absofucking-lutely. Will I vote for Hillary with my nose pinched to make sure Donald Fucking Trump doesn't become the most powerful person on the planet? Absofucking-lutely.
If you stay home, you don't get to complain. You left your voice in the garage. Those of us that live in the real world will make the realistic choice and vote to keep the Billionaire racist megalomaniac out of the most powerful office on Earth.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
