The leaders of the DNC chose wrong, America was not given the option.
They should have given him the chance to compete to the end in 2016 rather than forcing him to step down. But they would rather watch America's standing as a democratic republic crumble than see an administration where corporations make any less money.
Found this browsing All and was about to post the word that is the community's name. How fitting.
Me too, I think that's how they get ya
but that means homeless people and the poor would have had better access to healthcare, housing, education, food, and a laundry list of other EVIL SOCIALIST PROGRAMS!!!
think of the SHARE HOLDERS, YOU MONSTERS!!!

We tried. And we lost.
There is simply no way the powers that be would've allowed it. They allow him his "platform" because it effectively rounds people they might deem "interesting" up so they can better surveil them. If there was ever a real chance of him getting closer to power he would've been JFK'd immediately. I'm still not convinced that isn't the plan for AOC, but ofc I hope I'm wrong.
Sanders was on course to potentially win in 2016, then he threw in the towel because it would supposedly help Clinton. I haven’t taken him seriously since.
That’s a pretty creative take on it. Sanders WON the primary over Hillary Clinton and the DNC promptly disqualified him and put Hillary in his place. He didn’t throw in the towel. The candidacy was stolen from him. He was stolen from us. I haven’t taken the DNC seriously since.
As always: fuck the DNC
And he was magnanimous and supported her even after the treachery, didn’t split the vote by running third party.
Obviously
