The core rationale of the Sanders campaign is that the Democratic Party hasn't been speaking to a lot of people, who feel disenfranchised and have been sitting out, and he is going to mobilize these people to grow the base of the party. If that sort of thinking were going to appeal to anyone on this board, it would be Sebby.
I'm sympathetic to the idea that someone ought to do the above, I just am utterly unconvinced that Sanders is the guy. He seems more like Jeremy Corbyn than the 2008 Obama (before he took off the mask and revealed himself as a centrist).
