Miriam, I have problems believing that. Some of his views are so apart from
Clinton's that if he did endorse her he may very well be one of those pesky
"party loyalists" as well.

Well, I don't think he's said it recently because he's now in the midst of the
campaign. But he did talk about it at the start.

I have not heard him say that at all, in fact in an interview within the last
day or two, he was asked that question directly, whether he would support
Hillary, and he laughed, said something like, now don't get me into trouble
here, and left the question unanswered.has he changed his stance, or is one of
us missing something somewhere?

Frank,
He ran as a Democrat so that his messsage would be heard. He has been
roundly criticized by the Left for not running as an independent and for
saying that if he does not win in the primaries, he will support
Clinton. He
is being criticized by the Left because if there is any money left over
in
his campaign treasury and he doesn't get the nomination, the money will
go
to Hillary and he has said repeatedly that he will ask his supporters to
vote for her. He also said that he didn't run as an independent because
he
didn't want to be "a spoiler". Really, if you're going to toss insults
and
criticisms at him, it might be a good idea to first read all of the
material
and get all the facts straight. I've posted Chris Hedges' tirades
against
Sanders for running as a Democrat s well as the angry articles of
several
other people like Glenn Ford.

Marsha, your message is exactally what I am talking about. Your position
isn't in positive support of any viable candidate but instead is merely
a
negative protest against one that you dislike (Clinton). Remember what
they
say about your nose and your face. As far as Sanders goes; like I said,
I
voted for him but I see now that he probably isn't serious about
winning,
just serious about keeping Clinton out of office. The reason I say this
is
that here in Massachusetts the primary was his to win. He could have won
easily but essentially flipped us the bird by not aggressively
campaigning.
That was his betrayal. Also both you and Miriam are ignoring one very
important fact. Sanders switched from being an independent to a
Democrat to
win. If he was serious about a presidential run he could have easily
ran as
an independent. Why get on the Democratic ticket, if not to try to
derail
the Democratic front runner?

HI
Who Says Sanders is running to be a spoiler. Perhaps he doesn't have
much
of a chance but he has surprised people. Hilary is a two-faced liar who
really shouldn't even be elected to dog catcher. Would not want to
take it
out on the poor dogs.
