However, if Bernie intends to run as a Dem again, I sure as hell hopes he joins the Dem Party sooner rather than later. He tried to get his voters to support her after he & they blasted her for months. That was the problem then and it will be the problem again if he doesn't join the Dem Party way ahead of time.
