Defiant and determined to transform the Democratic Party, Senator Bernie Sanders is opening a two-month phase of his presidential campaign aimed at inflicting a heavy blow on Hillary Clinton in California and amassing enough leverage to advance his agenda at the convention in July — or even wrest the nomination from her.
Advisers to Mr. Sanders said on Wednesday that he was newly resolved to remain in the race, seeing an aggressive campaign as his only chance to pressure Democrats into making fundamental changes to how presidential primaries and debates are held in the future. They said he also held out hope of capitalizing on any late stumbles by Mrs. Clinton or any damage to her candidacy, whether by scandal or by the presumptive Republican nominee, Donald J. Trump.
After sounding subdued if not downbeat about the race for weeks, Mr. Sanders resumed a combative posture against Mrs. Clinton, demanding on Wednesday that she debate him before the June 7 primary in California and highlighting anew what he asserted were her weaknesses against Mr. Trump.
Mr. Sanders, his advisers said, has been buoyed by a stream of polls showing him beating Mr. Trump by larger margins than Mrs. Clinton in some battleground states, and by his belief that an upset victory in California could have a psychological impact on convention delegates who already have doubts about Mrs. Clinton.
But his newly resolute attitude is also the cumulative result of months of anger at the national Democratic Party over a debate schedule that his campaign said favored Mrs. Clinton; a fund-raising arrangement between the party and the Clinton campaign; the appointment of fierce Clinton partisans as leaders of important convention committees; and the party’s rebuke of Mr. Sanders on Tuesday for not clearly condemning a melee at the Nevada Democratic convention on Saturday.
If Bernie has any integrity, he would do whatever he can to prevent Hillary from becoming president, because she is the complete opposite of everything he says he stands for.

No - Trump is. Which is why Bernie said he would work night and day to ensure that Trump does not get elected.

Hillary is quite different from Sanders.
They're both pathologic liars, but Clinton does it to line her own pockets and increase own power. She doesn't give a s*** about the people or the country but knows there are enough idiots dumb enough to believe her lies so she can enrich and empower herself.
Sanders actually thinks his BS will help people but he's not in it for himself.

Just arguing this....not that I believe you are right, but if you believe in something and truly believe in it and it turned out wrong, that is not the definition of a lie.

That will only happen when the Demoratic candidate runs on a strong social democratic agenda so millions of people feel they are represented. If not, say hello to Trump.
