If Sanders can make the case to people that might not be aware that citizens united has fundamentally broken US politics then there's no way he doesn't give Hillary at least a good run. He has a huge advantage which is that he's the only one that can really make that case, as far as i know he gets most of his campaign contributions from unions
“The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you've lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that's bigger than you are and that controls you.” - George Carlin
