  1. Bernie isn't perfect but it often seems like he is when compared to the establishment. Sanders 2020!

  2. I think you overestimate how incredibly difficult it would have been for him to win in a 3 way race. Even if he got the most EC votes that isn't good enough. He would have needed a majority of EC votes to win and that would have been all but impossible. Also if he would have run and Trump won Hillary and the corporate media would have been able to effectively blame him for Trump winning. He and his movement would have suffered a devastating blow. I guess what I'm saying is that if you think it couldn't have been worse then you are wrong. It is incredibly important that Hillary be blamed for her loss. Of course there are still those that want to blame Sanders and russia and sexism and... but I'm not talking about those idiots. I'm talking about the sane. Sanders is currently the most popular politician in the country and is in a position to win in 2020 only because he didn't run as a 3rd party candidate for the general in 2016.

  3. Nikosi, um no. They are not doing that now. The key word in my statement is EFFECTIVE. I even go out of my way to point out that they do try to blame to him. But they are not effective arguments to the sane because of what Sanders did. Had Sanders ran 3rd party and lost those attacks would have been INCREDIBLY effective. If you do not acknowledge the difference between those 2 scenarios then you are being willfully blind to the reality of things. Oh and as evidence I cite the response Hillary had on her blame everybody other than herself book tour. Even Hillary supporters had an IMPOSSIBLE time defending their fallen queen while she was doing it.
