It's who not whom

Increasingly in current English most people say who in all circumstances. And a few die-hards insist upon making the rest of us fell inferior by saying it should be whom. The problem is nobody explains that whom is used when it is receiving an action = support in your sentence. and who is used when it is the action "who is going to win the next election". It is best to teach this with one hundred sample sentences rather than a two possible choices question. Or as part of a gap filling exercise.

Whom *might* technically be correct, but I cannot imagine anyone would say it that way any longer. My mother would likely have said 'whom' but she'd be going on 96 were she still alive.

Whom? Seriously?

"Whom" (object) + do (aux. verb) + "you" (subject) + "think" (verb) + "we should support in the upcoming Presidential election" (dependent clause). Maybe my very proper grandmother would say this when she's being fancy. The rest of us use "who" as an object, too.
