That you might like his policies doesn't make him likeable, he seems devoid of humour or much personality

I think you're a bit naive to this. I think a lot of people like Bernie for his character as a man even more so than the actual policies. He seems to actually care and seems like a decent guy which is so rare in politics. Whether you like his policies or not it seems like his intent is to actually help people. He is far from a perfect candidate but to me is the best of the horrendous options that exist. He at least has some relatability. Some humanity. The fact that the Dems are so scared to go with him says it all to me.
