I understand why he became a Democrat, but I think he could take from both sides & win as an independent.

is this what any decent candidate who wants to run as Democrat who has a chance of success can expect?

"its okay if you run, as long as you're not good?"

If it wasn't so pathetic, this would just be a "hilarious" situation.

Oh no! The ACA! Oh no! Social Security! Oh No! Medicare! Oh no! Climate change!

Pffft....whatever they get when Trump is president, they deserve. They have the chance, just like we do, to support Bernie Sanders. Bernie can and will beat Trump. Clinton can't and won't. Their choice, their fault and their fate.

I hope they know Independents, Millennials and many, many boomers aren't voting for her if she is successful in stealing this election. That's an instant loss.

PEACE
LOVE

so that the momentum and movement gathers more people. If clinton wins, then there will be little chance to save the progressive side.
