In a move sure to shake the Democrat party to it’s core Bernie Sanders’ campaign is not yet done fighting their revolution against the establishment.
A quiet burst of activity from the Sanders campaign seems to all but guarantee that Sanders will run as an independent this election cycle. All across the country Sanders’ core infrastructure of volunteers and paid staff are mobilizing to collect signatures and perform necessary paperwork to get him on the general election ballots in the states.

Officials highly placed within the Sanders campaign remain evasive and deny that the senator plans, at this time, to run as an independent. Bernie’s campaign manager, Jeff Weaver, has stated time and time again that they intend to go all the way to the convention and make the case that Sanders should be the Democratic nominee for the 2016 general election. But the Sanders campaign is actively engaging in activities, within the states, that have no other purpose besides putting Sanders in the position of being able to run as an independent candidate against Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.

Bernie Sanders has not always been a Democrat.

In fact, until he ran for president he was never a Democrat. Now it appears that his treatment by Hillary Clinton and the DNC has, in his mind, affirmed all of the reasons he was an independent socialist senator…the party system is corrupt and irredeemable.

So it shouldn’t be a huge surprise that Sanders is now pvioting from trying to win the Democrat Party nomination to burning it all down!

Socially Viral scored the scoop

Nothing would surprise me this election. And no telling what could happen. Maybe we all will be surprised.

Absolute 100% unmitigated BULLSHIT!!!!!!! There is 0% credibility to this story. It's nothing more than a politically impotent Right Wingers wet dream.
 
Is it possible Trump could give him $250mil or some amount in secret? Do you need that kind if money when old in Vermont? His wife does not appear to need to shop travel etc?
 
Bernie has accomplished much. He has put his agenda up front, and already we see Hillary at least giving lip service to it. I think that we will see Bernie actively campaigning for Hillary. That is how he will see some of the things he wanted to see done, put into action.
 
I DO believe that the organization and support Bernie built will NOT go to waste. This is the birth of an American Socialist Party. What happens this election is not clear. But I'm CERTAIN that Bernie will endorse the venture and provide his donor lists and all polling and information..

For THIS election cycle -- it's too late to be a "third party". The only choice is to declare as Independent. Which is a much lower ballot access bar.. And that is still feasible up until somewhere in July..

What about the Green Party ? (running as their presidential candidate) Jill Stein said she would step down to the Vice Presidential candidate.

Wouldn't work.. Because USUALLY the Green Party never makes it onto all 50 state ballots. MAYBE they have this cycle. And if so --- That would work.. But I don't think Bernie wants a Socialist party with all the Green baggage. It's a bit weird in places. Ultimate situation is to ABSORB US Greens into an Amer. Socialist Party..
 
Would be nice, but no way this is going to happen.
If Bernie goes Green, Hillary will lose. With this hanging over their heads, maybe the Dems will give Bernie the nomination.

If Bernie goes Green, even if he does not win, the Green party could very well get enough votes to become an official mainstream party.

This could get interesting.
