Not continuing to run would be ‘outrageously undemocratic,’ Bernie Sanders says

[RiverNoord]

160. Nope. The most tenacious fighter the Democratic party has had for decades,

and Democrats like you want him to throw in the towel. His stated aspirations are genuinely, deeply Democratic, and with the as much support as he has for them, they'd be the kind of negotiating positions the party has needed for decades.

Without strong negotiating positions such as his proposals, the Democratic party has lost ground to Republicans consistently year after year. Because they've shown, and keep showing, without any real cost, how far they're willing to go to get what they want. Vote over and over again to repeal the ACA? No problem. How about shutting down the government again? Sure, we're crazy about that. Impeach a President for fooling around in the White House? Hell, we're just pissed that we have to do it in our not-Oval-shaped offices and sometimes in bathroom stalls, but, sure, let's do that! And what about that uppity Kenyan Muslim Communist Nazi Dark-Skinned Guy who thinks he's actually the President? We'll invent new ways of dissing the office of the Presidency especially for him!

And it continues because WE DON'T FIGHT BACK. It appears that Donald @!$%@ing Trump will be the Republican nominee for the Presidency. And he's established positions like deporting all Muslims, going to war with whoever happens to piss him off at the wrong time, and generally being as racist as possible. Because of that, Democrats run scared and decide it's better to keep someone like that out of office than it is to fight for things that are important to us. We've become a party of cowards and collaborators against everything we supposedly once stood for.

Yep, let's call the guy who just doesn't seem to get how all that works a 'spoiler' and hush him off to the side. Especially before he wins more elections and reveals any further that we're just not that into Hillary Clinton.
