    Bernie is a registered independent, he’s not a Democrat. That’s why the DNC worked so hard to tank his campaigns.

      ‘Worked so hard’

      As far as I can recall, first go around the dnc denied him access to some voter data which was given to him 24 hours later, and then he lost because he didnt do well with black voters in southern states.

      And in 2020 Biden offered Buttitege a cabinet position if he’d drop out and endorse him, the most normal political shit that happens every primary, then bernie lost because black voters in southern states voted again for the centerist.

      It’s fun and emotionally rewarding to imagine the DNC as an evil entity single handedly stopping Bernard Joseph Sanders from saving the world, but the reality is that a key demographic for getting the nominee just doesn’t trust democratic socialism and Bernie has never managed to change their mind on that.
