Sen. Bernie Sanders, a Vermont independent, is in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, but maybe, say the skeptics, he just doesn’t look presidential.

So David Letterman Friday night offered the Top 10 guys Bernie Sanders looks like. None are Abraham Lincoln....

10. The guy who licks his finger before turning a page

9. The guy who shouldn't still be practicing surgery

8. The guy with a shopping cart full of canned fruit cocktail

7. The guy scolding a parking attendant for scratching his Lebaron

6. The guy who lets strangers handle his shoes

5. The guy who eats a pickle with every meal

4. The guy at Walgreens trying to redeem expired coupons

3. The guy who always has crumbs in his sweater

2. The guy who gives trick-or-treaters nickels

1. The guy who can't beat Hillary Clinton
