13009384, yes he would be Ralph Nader if he did that Posted by SeV, Thu Apr-21-16 07:23 PM
And the movement would all but fizzle
The smarter and logical thing to do is use this opportunity to make changes WITHIN the Democratic party. Push more candidates forward that are in line with Bernie's message. Keep the younger voters involved so the next Bernie can take helm. Hopefully Bern is smart enough to push that message. Or else the movement dies with him going down the reactionary "Bernitdown" road
If Bernie supporters can use the energy and become a part of the Democratic Party, they can use that influence to shift the direction in the long-term.
The key to getting the things done he talk about is not to break away from the establishment, but BECOME the establishment. The Democratic party of today isn't the same as the Goldwater Democrats. Trying to blow it is going to go nothing bUT helping u feel better like a kid throwing a tantrum in his room.
