Well you're not from a 1%er family, so once the draft for North Korea rolls around to cover over that pesky Putin problem, that'll save you from being around. ;)
Hope this helps. :)

We can hope...but the biggest issue in my mind is getting damned voters to turn out. And Bernie had better tell the DNC to f@ck off.

That's pretty much what tanked it for Pant Suit. Republicans did what they always do and turned out in the same numbers as previous elections. Too many butt hurt Dems took their ball and went home, completely ignoring the consequences.

Maybe this time they are paying attention and are scared shitless enough to do something about it

A third Democrat noted that, beyond Sanders and Warren, no other Democrats have really put together the kind of competing message, vision or agenda that it would take to steer the conversation in their direction.
"At every activist meeting I've been to in Iowa over the past six months, Bernie is the only national Democrat people are talking about. They love his message and they are urging other candidates to sound more like him," this strategist said. "There is such an opportunity for someone to come in, say something new and interesting, and address the enormous wealth disparity in America, yet only Bernie and, to a lesser extent Warren, are doing it. Nobody else has packaged something, rolled something out, put a digital campaign together and pushed a simple economic populist agenda."

You think he should run as an independant?

Honestly, yes. Realistically, no...

I believe this country needs an independent or (GASP!) a Socialist POTUS. Will it happen any time soon? No...the big two parties have way too much influence and the mouthbreathers in this country are far too unenlightened to allow it.

I want a parliament where everybody yells at each other, like in Britain. Oh, and also, proportional representation.

edit:
the pragmatic right (the Bush-McCain-Bob Corker Republican

uhhh....Bullshit. It's arguable that Bush (either of them) and McCain are some kind of "pragmatists", but Corker? That's some grade D baloney. Only in Trumpistan would anyone confuse Corker with some kind of "Centrist". That's a sad sign of just how far the goal posts have moved. Just because Bob Corker can breathe without his mouth open doesn't make him a Centrist.

Biden’s going to run. I’m not excited about this, although anything would be better than this circus of incompetents we have how.
