I have some friends whose teenage daughters are gaga for Bernie, even volunteering for his campaign. There will be some tears tonight.
Young people might love Bernie but they probably forgot to show up and vote.
My nephews went to a Bernie rally. They are in their early 20’s and their top top issues are infrastructure and Wall Street greed. I’m working on them, but don’t think there is any way I can douse The Bern.
Sander's will start doing well as the primaries move toward the West Coast and NEast Coast.

So do I. Every one of them is a live-at-home, technically an adult, single mom, with no job or only a minimum wage job. The leave their babies with their 50-something parents to go off and campaign for Bernie and then come home to tell their parents why they are wrong for supporting Trump or Cruz.
The young men I know that are for Bernie are gay (or set off Gaydar from a mile away).
As long as they blame Hillary for cheating their hero out of a fair chance and stay home or vote Socialist in November it’s all good. In fact, Bernie on the Socialist Workers’ Party ticket (yes, there is such a thing. I’ve seen it on my ballot every presidential election along with the Libertarians) might pull two or three percent that would normally fall Clinton’s way. Could be a difference maker in some key States that went for Obama because of the vacant eyed let us prove we’re not racists like Mom and Dad vote.
College niece is a Bernie fanatic, sad
I always ask them if they think mom and dad get to keep the 4000 sq foot house in Bernie’s utopia.
