Bernie isn't dumb enough to forget that we live in a two party system. Spoiling the election for progressives does everyone in America a massive disservice.
Does it though? I thought all he wanted to do was make a statement and have the Democratic party take in some of his ideals? and I dont think he made that big of a movement or dent unless Hillary adopts more than just the min wage argument(which not sure if she is)
I think not supporting Hillary or running 3rd party would have sent a louder message. It would have sent a louder message because, to me, it would have said he REALLY is fed up with the 'status quo" and establishment(WHICH IS WHAT HE WAS PREACHING NONSTOP) and maybe voting trump or bernie running 3rd party is doing america disservice. But it seems voting HIllary means we are okay with what is happening and I dont think we will see anything new come up.
in the small % that trump wins, even if we take a minor hit, i think it will shake up and really grab peoples attention that people just dont give a **** anymore. And I hope THAT will send a message to Democrats and Republicans alike. For YEARS I have read users on this forum loling at the establishment on both sides. I hope this race is closer than its projected to be
