Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are the most liked candidates for president. At least on Facebook. Politico reported that the two Democratic entrants generated the most conversation -- positive or negative -- of all presidential candidates between May 13 and June 13. The pair also dominated in the important early primary states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. In Iowa during that period, Clinton came in first with 289,000 likes, comments, posts, and shares about her from 66,000 people. Sanders, meanwhile, saw 30,000 Iowans engage in 153,000 interactions. GOP hopeful Rand Paul spurred 24,000 people to make 98,000 interactions.
