Has Bernie expressed opinions about the third party candidates this year? He was and still identifies him as an independent, with the exception of the campaign period. Instead of attaching himself to the Democrats, why isn't he interested in helping supporting independents, third parties to increase their influences? It seems he could be the most effective to do so.
It is simple, the electoral college and the 270 electoral votes one needs to become president. That is the main issue, then of course there is the whole thing about how our political system is designed to make it near impossible for any other party to succeed. He would be better off changing it from within the Democrat party, as well as helping reshape the Democrat party.
I thought this would be the election that we saw better numbers from a third party candidate, and even seen a few small seat wins from third party candidates, but to my knowledge, that didn't happen. So I really question if we will ever see a different party being a major party besides the main two.
Now there is always a chance that Trump will go full Nazi and taint the Republican party's name so much that they are forced to disband and break into other parties. That might be a possibility, but even that is an extreme stretch.
Assume hypothetically Bernie Sander were younger, then after becoming well-known during this year's campaign, do you think he would have a very good chance if he runs in 2020 as independent (suppose he'll be in his 60s)?

No money that's why. Sanders believe it or not is in it for the money, he was paid a nice sum to step away and endorse Hillary. Not bad for being a Democratic party disrupter at age 75.

No.
When he took off his kimono, crawled in bed with Hillary, and cuddled up to her, he only proved that he was another lying hypocrite career politician.
Maybe just maybe, the Dems align with Sanders platform. It isn't complicated
