Bernie is an Independent as elected to Congress. Now that Forest Gump is out, 99.5% guaranteeing that King Hillary will be the nominee, what is Bernie Sanders to do?

Will he quietly go home? Or will he continue to battle the King as she represents everything that he says he is against?

No.

Just more wishful thinking, like your laughably absurd claim from just a couple days ago that Biden was going to run for President as part of an Obama plot to foil Clinton's chances.

You people are so delusional...

I'm thinking he might go to the Green party. They are nutty enough to get behind him.

Honestly though, I think he's making moves to drop out (or accept the inevitable defeat) and get behind Hillary. His dismissal of her illegal emails was a path forward. I see him hoping for a position in her administration (should she beat Trump). Maybe she'll bring back the court jester.

No, that will guarantee another Bush victory like in 2000 when Nader split the vote and cement the plutocracy even further.

The positive news about Biden not running is that the corporate media is now forced to acknowledge Bernie Sanders as Hillary's opponent instead of a media blackout if Biden had run. I think people really are interested in preventing the American democracy from being destroyed and turned into a full blown banana republic for the super rich.

Delusional? I made no such claim. I posted an article where it was claimed.

Berniie's Supporters may go to Trump instead of automatically voting for The King. Many of Trump's and Sander's positions are similar.

So when you started a thread with the title "Obama - Using Biden to Block the Clintons from Regaining the White House", you didn't mean to imply that Obama was using Biden to block the Clintons from regaining the White House?

Think grasshopper, think. I know you must hold me in awe, but even I personally wouldn't know this.

Think, grasshopper, think. With most people (rational people, people capable of following a logical argument from A to B to C), when they (A) post a news article, accompanied by (B) statements that agree with the premise of the article, that means (C) they agree with the article.

Context! How does it work?

Haha. I don't think you get the reference at all.
