Mike Malloy - Bernie Will Have More Leverage if He Endorses Clinton

If you told me before I left on vacation two weeks ago that when I returned Senator Bernie Sanders would have secured huge Democratic platform concessions—a commitment to a $15-an-hour minimum wage, a death-penalty ban, a financial-transaction tax, a modernized version of “Glass-Steagall” banking regulations, a surtax on multimillionaires, Social Security expansion, among other priorities—I’d have expected to see Sanders out campaigning with Clinton this week, having enthusiastically endorsed her.

Instead, Clinton campaigned with progressive icon Elizabeth Warren on Monday, while Sanders continues to say he’ll withhold his support until the Democratic National Committee grants him even more platform wins.

1. IMO he woulda been better to admit to and accept reality then turn his attention to his issues...

"Well it looks like I may not be the party nominee unless something drastic happens. I accept that and congratulate hillary clinton on being the presumptive party nominee, the first women ever to be so. Now it is time to see that she is elected president. In order to make her administration that much more successful after defeating Donald Trump or whoever the Republicans nominate, lets go on to the convention and see that party platform represents the views of all the people who voted in the democratic primaries. (insert stump speech here)"
