I have to add that the reason Bernie was asked this (and not other candidates—yet, anyway) is because Bernie has a history of NOT taking a graceful exit.
I’m wishing that oldster receives a loud and clear message from the voters—a message he can’t justifiably ignore for long.

I hope we learned something also. Don't screw over Bernie or you will lose again.
Especially when, like a petulant child, Bernie sulks all over the place after he’s told no...yes, we will lose. Bernie is like a poison, which is why I was hoping he’d be decent enough to sit out this time.
I’m just hoping Bernie is sent to his room without dinner a little sooner than last time. Maybe then we can move on beyond him.

I don't agree.
The problem has been unity, that we should support a political party to benefit America is a faulty premise.
Everyone of these choices you pick will have to deal with economic realities. The central one being corporate supply chains and military domination are the only way to fund our current living standard.
No president will oppose either of these institutes no matter what they say. Its why Obama protected wall street, and its why your favorite candidate will do the same.
Bernie's antagonisms towards established institutions is good, not childish. Its childish to assume being a team player will change anything.
Yeah...it's a pretty sweet little racket the Bernster's got going there.
I don't hate Bernie Sanders...in fact, he's pretty useful strictly from and entertainment standpoint.
But I'll be damned if I'm going to accept public policy pronouncements from some jughead like Bernie who has never spent a single working day in the productive sector of the economy.
It does bother me that Bernie was a hippie who never had a real job until age 40, when he ran and won for Mayor of Burlington VT. Not much of a resume for someone who wants to be president.

A resume for President is what careerists believe in.
It does not make a good executive, it makes an executive who manages policy in terms of personal gain. And all personal gain comes from supporting the existing institutions.
If Bernie can even put a dent in the meritocratic system that has upheld concentrated wealth it would be a great benefit for this country's future.
