Maybe I'm being dumb but this actually seems significant. His voters will leave with him. I'm not saying being independent makes them any smarter, but it DOES set them permanently partially and formally against the dems, and partially de-shackles their minds from dem mental servitude.

A permanent Dem-Ross-Perot faction is fine with me.

What a hypocrite piece of ####.

But boy did he #### hillary lol.

Maybe took away 15 percent of those in her party who would have voted for her. Possibly more.

She can’t win without the youth vote and it’s GONE.

Trump should keep stressing TPP to them.

Is this real or just wishful thinking? Why isn’t anyone else reporting this? I would think this seals the deal for Trump.

If Bernie runs as an independent it will draw enough votes that it will be a slam dunk for trump,

It wont even be close enough for Hillary to win by cheating ...all these new voting systems like early voting and vote by mail are designed for cheating, it comes down to who is in charge of each county controllers office when the boxes hit the dock

Yeah - he’s a socialist.

He became a Democrat when he wanted to be president.

He used them.

Now they want to use him and he’s saying “no”.

By Emily Zanotti | 5:41 pm, July 27, 2016
The nomination was barely sealed up at the Democratic National Convention before Bernie Sanders, who had campaigned against Hillary Clinton for the party’s nod, went back to being an Independent.

Sanders, who considers himself, officially, an Independent in Congress because his views lean further left than the Democratic party’s platform, caucuses with Democrats. But until declaring an intention to run for the presidency in 2015, he had rarely, if ever, identified as a member of the Democratic Party (he’s been in politics since 1979).

And now, despite pleading with his base to support Hillary, even though they’re concerned that she’s too moderate, Sanders will return to Vermont and to his seat in the Senate, and he’ll do it with no official party affiliation.....

Sanders has decided to form a 3rd Party. The Dems will wish they had never messed with him?

Sanders is a Communist from hell. He will take your stuff and then kill you. He is to be despised and disposed of. His few followers need to be imprisoned.

Do you ever read what you type? It is straight from Mao.

Yes, but did he split the party?

Did he fracture the unity?

Why didn’t Hillary pick Bernie as her VP? Because she can’t have anyone outshine her. He has throngs of loyal fans who love him, while people grit their teeth to vote for her.

Maybe he’ll go to New Alliance. They do great pitches on subway trains in NYC, and they’re always nominating Al Sharpton for stuff.
