Running as an independent would be the dumbest idea, why would we want to hand an election to the GOP when we already know they have no shot at winning this election. Sanders has never once said he would run as an independent, and in many states he can't run as an independent in this election because he has run in the Democrat Primary.
If Sanders loses this run for nomination, he will go back to being a Senator like he has been this entire time. If anything, he has helped the Social Democrat movement and hopefully will help get a few of them elected into office to give him and Warren more support with pushing this political movement further.
