Another horrible strategy by Bernie in a campaign riddled with poor strategy. Joe Biden only has about a 1 out of 3 chance of winning the general. Those are not good odds. He'll crumble to Donald Trump.

My man Bernie 😭😭😭 He's an honest, good person but he dropped the ball so much this election cycle. I'm disappointed in him to say the least, he could've done a lot more but he was fighting against the machine and I guess that's hard enough.

I hope Biden wins over Trump but idk if I'm voting Biden anymore due to the multiple sexual assault allegations against him, especially Tara Reade's.

I can't, in good conscience, vote for a rapist. I wish there was a viable third party candidate..

AOC 2024???

I'm in. She will have just turned 35 a month prior to the election.

Makes for several awesome story lines.
First female POTUS.
First Latino/a POTUS.
From bartender to POTUS in 6 years.

She's a compassionate, intelligent person with a clear vision of the future which sets we, the people at center stage instead of the rich and powerful. She'd make an amazing president.

I like AOC. Didn't use to, but she's gotten better.

We failed the only candidate that was looking out for the average citizen.

We didn't fail him. We don't owe him our votes. He failed to have a platform most people in Democratic party can get behind twice.

>He failed to have a platform most people in Democratic party can get behind twice.

That's why we failed him. He put up a great platform, one that he had been fighting for his entire life. But we were too afraid of change to give him a chance. 

That doesn't mean we owed him votes, but he certainly deserved them. 

Don't get me wrong, I synced up with Bernie's ideals more than other candidates, certainly more than Biden's, but if this guy has been fighting so hard his entire life, why did it seem like drawing blood from a stone to get him to expand upon any of those ideals and explain how he was going to move forward in accomplishing them when in office? People dog on Warren, but she attempted to actually provide roadmaps to the policies she put forth. Sure, not everything proceeds according to a roadmap, but the fact that she had that shows me as a voter that she had put a lot of thought and consideration into the steps she wanted to take. Bernie had a lot of interesting and potentially wonderful and transformative ideas for the country, but we never got the sense that there was a fully fleshed out plan to make those come true other than "a political revolution".

So who failed the people here?  Sanders or the Party?

If Sanders had done anything to even give the impression he wanted to reach people beyond his most ardent supporters post-Nevada, there is nothing the party could have done to stop him.

Instead, he wanted to win with his 30%.
