Know too that Hillary's big donor and SuperPac money will be exhausted way before Bernie's money. She limited her funding to a small group, albeit at a much higher donation amount and has already spent a good bit of it.

Bernie doesn't have a fundraising shut off like Hillary plus his campaign is frugal. He can continue to raise money and stay in the race because his donor base is so vast. Even if it is only an average of 27 bucks per person.

This is an example of the power the people have as a collective.
