On April 28, Bernie Sanders said he will seek the Democratic Party nomination for President. Although he has run for office dozens of times in the past, it was always as a nominee of the Liberty Union Party, or as an independent candidate. He even ran for presidential elector in 1980 on the Socialist Workers Party ticket. See this story.
Run, Bernie, Run!
How many $$$ BiLLIONS/TRILLIONS will B.S. get from Elephant donors —
to DIVIDE and CONQUER ???
How does a voter rank the communists in the New Age Donkey Party ???
See the Elephant Prez nominee wreckage in 2012 by the nonstop attacks on Romney.
Didn’t Sanders run for US Senate on the Socialist ticket and get a few percent of the vote?
I’m not a Green but I wish that he had run for Green Party nomination instead. Might have helped them get their vote total up in 2016 thus making them stronger.
No, when Sanders ran for the US Senate in 1974, his label was Liberty Union. He got 4.13%. That is the only year he ran for US Senate, until 2006 and 2012, when his label both times was “independent”. Of course he won those latter two races.
Yawn.
I wouldn’t rule out Sanders endorsing Jill Stein or whoever the Green Party’s presidential candidate ends up being if he loses in the Democratic Party Primary. It’ll depend on whether he’s sold out or not to Hillary Clinton in the end.
I bet he’ll have some problems getting on the ballot in at least a few states.
