Nah he truly is too liberal on many issues
-Free public state college
-Tax hikes on every class, but more on the rich
-Medicare for the whole country
-No real debt handling plan to come with this spending
-Universal healthcare through a single payer
-following the Nordic model
etc
I know what I'm talking about when I call him too liberal for me. Some of his policies I agree with on a personal level but know it couldn't work here without other sacrifices. A few I just don't agree with at all and wouldn't want to see being implemented. So yes, he's too liberal for me and I wouldn't vote for him during the primaries because of it
edit: and I don't mean too liberal in general, just too liberal on issues I care about more
On another note, something I'd like to do in an ideal world is executively produce a TV show centered on political drama, and a storyline I was thinking of (I'm an idealist, okay!) was that the First Lady (main character) would take a more active role in the White House, receive acclaim and the media would lightly push for her to become veep, then the veep of the show would start to resent her and start to try to shut her out. That's eerily similar to the Biden-Hillary thing and I SWEAR I thought of it before I read that article. Proof that I am spiritually connected to them 
. She has my vote because Sanders is far too liberal and the republicans (most) are nut cases. If a familiar and lovable person like Biden runs she will actually have to work for my vote which is what I want to see. I still would more than likely support her over Biden but I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't vote for her because of him.
