Sanders says in 2008 he didn't endorse a Democratic candidate prior to the convention

Who cares about what Sanders did in 2008 - he wasn't a DEMOCRAT.

Another delusion gem on Daily Kos:

"Bernie Lays out THE TRUTH on Superdelegates and Clinching the Nomination
by TobyRocksSoHard
But a funny thing happened on the way to the convention. On June 5th, two days after the voting was concluded and before Hillary had dropped out of the race, Sanders had something to say about the nomination...Sanders said he held off supporting either of the Democrats because he has made it a custom not to support any Democrat for the presidential nomination until the party had chosen its nominee."

What he or anyone else did in 2008 is immaterial, this is 2016 and he is Bernt Toast.


His opinion in 2016 is worthless because of his actions in the last 6 weeks of this campaign. He has demonstrated that he still is not a Democrat.

If he runs for his Senate seat again in 18, he may find himself with a few challengers. We'll see how he likes it.
