Whatever, you guys are delusional.  Money is always something a campaign for the Presidency needs and having less money will mean you cannot compete in as many states as you will want.  Personally I will just wait to see how things shake out before making any type of decisions on her personal character.  People seem to come out of the wood works with all of these high and mighty principals but seem to easily throw them away when it matters.

I'll point out 2 things to you.

1st: Look at the amount of Money bernie raised by small $ donors only.

2nd: Bernie hasn't run on any big money ever, for over 40 years.

His character is as clear as they come while others are.... trying to play people like Obama did. No thanks, I'm watching records and actions and the choice is clear. I'm also going to point out that while money is important, Bernie is raising a lot and he has more boots on the ground which will go further than money. He has people canvassing in all the states as well as donating. He's got the numbers to win and even more people are volunteering and working to help him get elected through his app. I should Know cause I'm one of them.

That is great for Bernie but he needs to win.  The whole reason Bernie went from Independent to Democrat is because he needed the national stage being part of the DNC supplies, the money and the voters.  Bernie is doing better now because this is his second go around but his health will be a big issue especially at his age so we will see if he can maintain momentum coming down the stretch.  

I will admit that money isn't everything but you definitely need to have enough to run in multiple states and succeed.  Being able to garner those swing states and maybe claw back the ones Trump won that were on the fence will be crucial.  Having the cash to run ads, make appearances and have people on the ground doing the leg work will be vital for success.
