If it happens that I do not win that process, would I run outside of the system? No, I made the promise that I would not and I will keep that promise, Sanders said. And the reason for that is I do not want to be responsible for electing some right-wing Republican to be president of the United States.
Pretty sad when Sanders is more responsible than Trump.
