Not if he acts on the belief that Republicans are the greater evil. From the comment I quoted originally, it seems that he would and/or did. @Padawanbater2 , did you vote for Hillary? Did it matter in your state (was it close)?
sanders was never given a vote. he was kept out by shifty politics and shitty decisions,
And the 4 million votes he lost the primary by?
my bad . ..still shifty politics and shitty decisions.
The Democrat leadership might have personally favoured the lifelong Democrat over the "Independent in Democrat clothing", but Sanders actually got more positive airtime and the DNC in no way "altered the vote".
as fair as the game is, yeah fair. everyone is so into the two party thing. So he could not run on policies alone. Besides his policies came off as drastic and he as wacky. in the end so far people got the other kind of change instead . still shifty politics and shitty decisions.
If a certain group of Democrats had've campaigned as hard for the Candidate as they did for the primary loser we'd be in a much better situation now (and Bernie would no doubt have gotten whatever cabinet position he wanted).
The OP made more " I hate Hillary threads and I hate Hillary comments " than anyone else on this site. Even into fucking November when it was clear that we were going to get Hillary or Trump, this fool still telling people not to vote Hillary.
Sit behind your keyboard and babble incoherently- or dig a little for a better understanding of the reasons why things happen as they do. It's up to you but if you never look beneath the surface, don't be surprised when people like me call you out for being shallow- and vapid.
Agreed. Are you suggesting he should have eschewed the Democratic nomination altogether and run as an independent?
No, I didn't vote for Clinton, it didn't matter in my state
DNC bylaws state they're supposed to remain neutral, so it doesn't really matter if it's a "lifelong Democrat" against "an Independent in Democrat clothing". Which is a poor argument to begin with seeing as how the American political system is designed to favor two major parties. If you are suggesting he should have ran as an Independent, you simply would have argued he split the vote when Clinton inevitably lost. It's a way for your side to argue everything else was the problem except the candidate you ran. See Ralph Nader. Sanders' strategy was brilliant in hindsight. Which is why he's the most popular politician in America at the moment.
Yeah, right, sorry we didn't get on board with your corporate platform. I've told you the same thing about how if you run that shit in the future you won't win elections and you've told me to go fuck myself, yet here you are blaming Sanders supporters for Clinton's humiliating loss.. So which is it, asshole? Do you need my vote or should I go fuck myself? If you need my vote, earn it, you're not entitled to it.
I told you this would happen. You have only your ignorant self to blame. Bask in it. You earned it.
i guess that's an easy thing as a white man to say to a black man. after all, it's not like trump ever called for the execution of 5 innocent white men, or systematically racially discriminated against white families.I told you this would happen. You have only your ignorant self to blame. Bask in it. You earned it.
How do you see that working out? Seems to me it would split the vote. Look how well the tea party has stained Republican policy, progressives can do the same with the Democratic party.
No, it's easy to say as someone who was completely vindicated throughout the course of this election. You just can't help but bring identity politics into it.
The wind of change are blowing, and picking up speed.
My point made. We all are about to bask in it. The difference between me and you is, I own my businesses and can decide if I want to pay people 15 dollars an hour. I also collect a nice pension from Uncle Sam.I told you this would happen. You have only your ignorant self to blame. Bask in it. You earned it.
