Bernie Sanders' union supporter calls for him to consider independent run
The Guardian ^

One of Bernie Sanders’ biggest union supporters has called on him to consider running as an independent candidate if Democratic party leaders continue to refuse to give him access to his campaign’s voter records.

The Democratic National Committee suspended all access for the Sanders team to a shared database system as punishment for a data breach in which a number of staff accessed records belonging to Hillary Clinton’s campaign during a software glitch.

Having said that, I sure hope the Gop-e doesn’t throw the election again.

They have a knack for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, don't they?

Oh yeah true. I did hear that today. It is beautiful. Mostly I am happy because they all put their nose up at us saying how much more adults they are. Well that lie has been exposed.

I don't believe the house made Lincoln president. He did take less than 50% of the popular vote, but won the Electoral College. The House did put John Quincy Adams in the White House

“We should all write to Bernie and beg him to go third party.”

Might have to invest in a donation toward that end, but it’d be worth it if Bernie jumps.

The Irony of a third party run and a Clinton. How juicy it would be for Bernie to play the foil Perot part II. Old man Bush could could get some pleasure from that.

Grab the Popcorn, it’s going to be real fun to watch Mayonnaise Hair Blabberman Schultz stumbling, stammering and backtracking to keep Bernier in the fold.

Good. The two party system is a scam anyway and should be gotten rid of.

Why do you have Trump running as an independent? He’s going to get the republican nomination. Where does it say the opposite?

Trump has outed the PACs and you can see, the PAC money is not trickling down to the candidates who can’t get any air time, while Trump is everywhere.

Putin endorses him, and let’s face it, a lot of Christian’s in the world do too.

Trump is so much a part of this world, that he’s in a different league all to his own.

Splitting the dem vote would create the biggest landslide ever, assuming Trump is allowed to run.

That’s the part I still don’t get, either. Perhaps they’ll wait til the last minute and disqualify him.
