Yes, Bernie wants to be our party's nominee, but with support for his vision of America.
Interesting qualifier. Nevertheless, that's clearly NOT going to happen, therefore he's NOT "achieving his goal". Noting this simple fact, it simply makes no good sense for his campaign to pretend and say things to suggest that "this was his plan all along".
Fact of the matter is, he's losing. His campaign can't gain a foothold, he doesn't have enough support from the AA and POC voters. His poll numbers in key states continues to crater and nosedive. Everyone (including BS) knows that he's not going to be our party's nominee... they just won't admit it out loud in public.

Well, he certainly won't be our party's nominee. Thanks for clarifying that's what you want.

I think Bernie's ultimate goal is to take the Democratic party down and rebuild it in his image.
