I don't think he wants a job with them. He said that he just want the middle and lower class to be featured in the Democratic platform. I can see Bernie giving speaking at colleges and doing activism.
BREAKING: Hillary has reached the needed delegates to be the presumptive nominee

All independents vote in primaries
Hilltron won more open primaries than Bernie
The way Bernie went out was disgusting.
Honestly even Ted Cruz went out better and that's saying a lot. When Cruz saw the path was closed he bowed out. Bernie is kicking and screaming. He was against the superdelegates until he was mathematically eliminated from getting the required number of pledged delegates then his campaign shifted and they're on the phone trying to switch over superdelegates.
The elections were held and the voters spoke. More of them for whatever reason picked Clinton. I can't believe he would then try to use superdelegates to overturn the people's will.

Not-so-encouraging news out of the Bernie Sanders camp: "Two people close to the campaign" told The New York Times half the candidate's staff will be let go Wednesday:
Many of those being laid off are advance staff members who often help with campaign logistics, as well as field staff members who have been working to garner votes for the senator, according to a campaign official and a former campaign staff member, both of whom spoke on condition of anonymity. Some campaign workers may move into jobs at Mr. Sanders’s Senate office, but others will be terminated, they said.
This is just one report, citing anonymous sources. That doesn't mean it's wrong or right—only time will tell. But these sorts of stories, even if they don't bear out, can be damaging to a campaign. They can show signs of internal weakness and strife, or spook supporters into switching their allegiances.

Assuming voter turnout in primaries is the same as the general
Then why did Bernie participate in the primary when he could of just campaigned for the general the whole time

We have this crazy two-party system where if you don't win either party's nomination your chances of getting elected are diminished significantly so you pretty much have to try and win the Republican or Democratic ticketThen why did Bernie participate in the primary when he could of just campaigned for the general the whole time
All independents are not the same though...there is not this large block of Indies who are champing at the bit to vote for Bernie because they are just as far to the left on things as he is.All independents vote in primaries
Independent voters are made up of varying degrees of liberals and conservatives who aren't really caring about these elections until the general starts and end up voting for the Dem or Repub candidate in presidential elections. So while the more progressive leaning independents would go to Bernie if he ran as an (I) in November they don't make up the totality of the independent voter group. Clinton and Trump would get a decent share of that pool of voters too.

As far as the down ticket according to this site 67% of people who supported him won their primary races.

But it was an uphill battle with the main candidate being so poisonous and the suppressed turnout. I wanna see how hard his new organization goes in the next 2 years to get some seats back.
that needs to be an official smilie.
