Proportional with Trigger: State will follow above proportional rules but allows for a winner-take-all allocation if a candidate wins a majority of the vote statewide or at the congressional district level.
Hybrid: State will follow some form of winner-take-more plan (i.e.: winner-take-all by congressional district) or directly elects delegates on the primary ballot.
Winner-take-all: State will award all delegates to the plurality winner of the primary or caucus

So are Hillary supporters and Bernie supporters, depends on who you ask. I think you are a secret Hillary admirer/supporter (what the heck do you see in her other than a liar? ) while claiming to be undecided. So who do you like among the candidates the most?

I think Clinton would be a good president for dealing with international affairs.
But, I like the domestic policies of Sanders.
If we could elect two presidents.... One for foreign affairs and one for domestic affairs, I'd be happy.

Saying Hillary Clinton would be better at foreign policy because of her extensive experience with it is like saying Ted Bundy would have been better husband material because of his extensive experience with women.

Some because he's saying 'fuck you' to the political establishment. Some because he was making them laugh and now they're on a winner's band wagon. Others because they see the need for a shake-up in our ossified two party dynamic and of all the candidates he's got the highest shake potential. But most are just typical negative wave humans looking to blame someone else for their problems, and now they have someone to follow who's going to make things right for them. (These four groups aren't mutually exclusive.)

I can relate to all four of those.
Could come up with a few more too, if I was so inclined, which I am not.
