I wouldn't say I know "100's" backing Bernie, but I've talked with quite a few people who like him and see people on Facebook really talking him up. I can't think of one acquaintance who is actively on the Hillary bandwagon right now.

Mr Sanders may make that 2016 POTUS election a real race now since so many people DON'T like Hillary.

Is the country going to make political history on Bernie?
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Biden is a good debater of course. As is Clinton. Trump may be the nail in the Republican coffin. He will make a mockery of the debates and the large Republican field will beat each other up on the way. Some in the field have tried before and failed. Why are they trying for the second or third time?
If Romney decided to run again the field would be complete. When will he announce?

Hillary walks the dog to the White House. Rather into the White House.

Yep. It was the largest gathering thus far for a political candidate in this election cycle.

Bernie Sanders rally in Madison draws 10,000 supporters

Go, Bernie!

I just hope you're wrong: I like Jeb as much as I like Hillary and that ain't saying much.

In the end, the conventional choices win this costly, long battle. Or as Joe Scarborough said so well "Crazy never wins".

A lot of people figured Hillary was "inevitable" back in 2008. If nothing else though, it's forcing Hillary to run as a real progressive and not as some moderate corporate Democratic candidate.

Also, I hope you aren't trying to say that Sanders is "crazy." If anything, he is saying what needs to be said and reflecting the frustration felt by millions of working class Americans.
