Just wanted to add the wikipedia page with the official positions of each candidate in the race (plus Biden), which is pretty interesting to see where each one stands for.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_positions_of_the_2020_Democratic_Party_presidential_primary_candidates

While I expected that Bernie would be my best fit, I didn't expect Gravel coming in second before Tulsi (though both Tulsi and Gravel are almost the same at each issue)

Also, Yang and especially Buttgeig are out for me. Yang because he's against an assault weapon ban, Buttigeig because he's against Tuition-free colleges and single-payer healthcare.

That's a great page, a few things are off, like for instance Elizabeth Warren is a YES on DACA but it isn't listed. However other than a few things it's very clean and gives a good read on the candidates.

After much research my preference for candidates has to be Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Tulsi Gabbard, and Pete Buttigeig. (I'll vote blue no matter who, but I just really don't feel comfortable voting for Joe Biden; yet I suppose lesser of two evils)

Also along the lines of Pete, I could swear he has supported tuition free schools and Single-payer in the past, maybe my memory is alluding me though. 

Buttigeig says he supports All payers rate setting, which could be considered single-payer light since it pretty much only applies to the price of drugs. Also, it's price fixing by companies, which means they can negotiate lower prices... but will those lower prices rather be forwarded to their clients or their shareholders?
