@BeardiusMaximus ah, i see, so his best chance is to go with people who have proven multiple times already that they wont give him any chance. going 3rd party, at least he will be able to fight, sticking with the democrats all they will do is simply tell him NO and thats the end of his fight, they dont even have to work at stopping him, they just simply stop him like they did the last 2 times, they didnt even break a sweat doing it.
now, as for not getting into the debates, who cares, from the news i heard, the RNC is pulling out of the debates too, big deal he doesnt get into the debates, with his name recognition and his message its not like he even has to go to the debates to answer a bunch of pointed questions.
as for not getting on the ballot in every state? how is it that a 3rd party candidate is put on the ballots in every state? and whats stoping people from doing their own write in candidate?
if he runs with the democrats, its a foregone conclusion that they will NOT nominate him as a candidate, he has 0% chance of being nominated as a democrat candidate. going with independents, its practically a 100% chance that they will nominate him as their candidate simply on the name recognition alone, and with that even if he only has a 5% chance of winning the race, it is still infinitely better than the 0% GUARANTEE that the democrats will snub him again.

@BeardiusMaximus its not that i disregard the answer, its that i simply dont agree with the answer.
what in the democrats history when dealing with Sanders has given you the idea that they will even consider giving him the nomination? was it when they gave him the nomination in 2016? oh no, they snubbed him. was it when they gave him the nomination in 2020? oh no, they snubbed him again. was it when they gave him a cabinet position in the Biden administration? oh wait, they snubbed him some more. and now here you are trying to make the point that this time, maybe just this time, they might consider him? its like a kid who keeps sticking his hand in the fire thinking that this time the fire wont burn him.
going as a 3rd party candidate is not going to be easy, i know that, but you discount the fact that he can hire people to help him build up an infrastructure to help bring up a 3rd party, like the green party. its ironic how there is only 1 3rd party (green party) candidate that runs for president, its almost like they nominate their candidate to run for president. being a 3rd party candidate he can hire in people to build up the infrastructure, he can raise the money, and with that money he can do things.
even if there is only a 1% chance of him getting the 3rd party nomination, its still infinitely higher than the percentage chance of getting a nomination from the democrats who have demonstrated historically of snubin Sanders at every opportunity.
yea, in 2016 he came in pretty big, and then what happened? they paraded Clinton on stage, dropped balloons and nominated her. BOOM, thats how hard the DNC had to work to stop him. in 2020, pretty much the same thing, and then when picking cabinet members for Bidens administration, they pretty much didnt even ask Sanders, yup, they had to work months and years and decades to formulate that plan of snubbing him.
if he goes with the democrats again, they will simply use him to help gain donations and then snub him just like every other time.
going 3rd party, with his name recognition alone he would draw in support for the 3rd party, not even calculating how much money he would bring in through campaign donations. he would draw in support from a lot of independents, and some democrats, and believe it or not, even some republicans that have grown to have the republicans that are in office right now. believe it or not, there is a lot of sentiment against republican leadership from republicans because of their inability to act on anything. you notice how republicans formed the Tea party because they were disillusioned with the republican party? you notice how republicans went for Trump, a man who literally had absolutely NO presence in government before? if you look at current polls, people in both parties are disenfranchised with both parties, republicans and democrats can muster about 30%-40% support in any demographic. Tim Pool did a segment on it a couple of days ago where he broke down each demographic and their support for each party. the country is silently begging for a 3rd party, and i think Sanders could be the leader of that 3rd party.
