Wow, after all the sh*t talking he did i can't believe he didn't shoot down the vp talk. WTF? Honestly why doesnt' he go out on his shield? Is he so desperate that he want's to eat the scraps off hillary's table? Wow. he is the 2016 Shabbetai Zvi, a false prophet. I guess a lifetime as a government employee will make you look for that VP pension plan rather than being paid out the ass as a speaker/private contractor. Damm Bernie.

Maybe he wants the biggest pulpit he can get to push his ideas

I don't know what interview you watched but he didn't concede to shit in that interview. He said if it came down to it they would sit down and talk but he has said before that in order for him to support her she has to make a few concessions before that would even happen. Also, he hasn't dropped out has he? To me that sounds like going out on your shield and I think he has a good chance at the convention.

Maybe calm down a little.
 
Why even consider being an underlying to someone as corrupt as Hillary? A corporate sell out as he claimed over and over?

But he's backing her once he bows out...
 
In a perfect world, this is what will happen...

There is already a movement afoot (led by the turdtastic Bill Kristol) to draft an establishment conservative to run on a third party ticket. Mitt Mormon's name is in the mix, in fact.

Were this to occur, it would open the door for Bernie to run as an independent, becoming the fourth horse in the race.

And I think if we were to start looking at polling data, based on that four person contest, Bernie Sanders would come out ahead, handily.

If another republican gets into the race and peels off votes from Trump, I hope Sanders will do the right thing, condemn the DNC and their presumptive nominee, and run hard against Shillary.
 
I'm not getting the same vibe as the TS from that interview at all. Bernie is saying that he's staying in the race "until the last ballot is cast", will continue to take on both Trump and Hillary and he still holds out hope for a contested convention. Just because he said if he loses his bid he will speak with Clinton that doesn't make him some kind of sell-out. What kind of response would you have found satisfying? "Fuck that nasty cooze, Hillary call lick my wrinkled nuts" wouldn't have been very Presidential IMO.

However, I would like to congratulate the TS for making it through the OP without saying "cuck". All hail War Room progress.

Uhhhhhh, Bernie couldn't win a 2 horse race against Hillary when he outspent her. He lost with delegates, he lost the popular vote, he lost the democratic base, he lost with women, and he lost with minorities. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY he wins a 4 horse race, bucking the DNC, running independent, and spending LESS than everybody else.
 
I'm surprised he'd show any interest.

I figured he just wanted a strong voice in the convention and platform, then to go back to his old job.

So why does Bernie poll far ahead of Shillary when pitted against Trump?

You do not understand the primary system. Or the relevance of independents, swing voters and traditional never-voters in the general. Not even remotely.
