Bernie has conviction, no doubt. Whereas, Trump has flip flopped as much or more than Hillary Clinton. Unlike Trump, Bernie isn't flamboyant and has only modest personal financial wealth.
It could be an interesting finals debate and run off between two very different types of men.
I see them both as Independents. Bernie on the left and forced under the Democrat umbrella in order to be a viable candidate, and more right-leaning Trump forced under the Republican umbrella to order to be a viable candidate.
I hear people say a lot that Trump just says what everyone else is thinking. Trump hardly ever says what I'm thinking. I think it's more accurate to say that Trump says what a significant percentage of Republican voters think.
Bernie says what I think more often than Trump. But, I don't agree with Bernie on aspects of his immigration, foreign policy, and gun control platforms.
I would vote for Bernie without hesitation, if an election between he and Trump were held today. But, I might vote for Rubio if it was down to Bernie vs. Rubio today.
Anyway, Bernie has done a great job carving out a sizable support base and generating a lot of enthusiasm through grass-roots strategies. I'm really interested to see if his first national debate appearance on Tuesday will help him steal some of Hillary's supporters.
