Auto correct. I am still adding common words to the dictionary. Who sets these up anyway? Didn't even have poop in the dictionary. I had to add that and all the curse words too. Lol.

Abdicate must mean loose now.
You mean lose? No, it means he abruptly turned on all those that believed in him. Not only just split, but joined the other 'side'.
Abruptly?
“Look, as I said a million times, I think the idea of a Donald Trump or a Ted Cruz presidency would be an unmitigated disaster for this country. I will do everything in my power and work as hard as I can to make sure that that does not happen. And if Secretary Clinton is the nominee, I will certainly support her.” -Bernie Sanders, April 7th, 2016.

Honest question,
How many really believe Bernie pushed Hillary any direction? Who honestly believes Hillary, after elected, will follow through on what she has claimed she will as lip service to Bernie supporters?
I commend Bernie for the planks he got placed in the platform but who honestly believes Clinton gives a crap about the platform after she is elected?
I just don't see it. Sorry. I think Bernie supporters feeling like they won amazing concessions now are going to be just as disappointed as ever.
!st term Presidents have to make good on such things of they do not get a second term. The only pass you is if you have a Congress controlled by the other party. Even then you have to make a good faith effort.
As for the OP Sanders endorsed when 85% of his supporters were going Clinton. That was pretty much the ball game on having any cards left to play. Sanders had the same numbers of voters as Trump did in the primary's about 13 million. Clinton had 17 million. Sanders supporters are breaking 85% for Clinton, so that is about 11 million for Clinton. With 2 million going elsewhere. Frankly I am surprised Stein did not see a much bigger boost. Looking those numbers lets go with highest 44,000 new likes on her face book page in the last week. Their should be about 2 million Sanders voters to split between Stein, Trump, and Johnson. I would think Stein would seeing at least half of that. Of course they could just be deciding to sit home instead.

People won't be branded a racist for voting against Hillary like they were in '08 and '12 when they voted against obnama.

Nearly half of millennials supporting Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders are thinking about backing a third-party candidate, according to data and local discussion on Yik Yak, a location-based social network.
The poll — which asked Sanders supporters whether the Vermont senator's endorsement of presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton changed their opinion — found that 48 percent of respondents said they would vote for a third-party option.
Another 39 percent said they would support Clinton and 13 percent said they may support presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump.
The poll surveyed 2,000 self-identified Sanders supporters from July 12-13. The margin of error is 1.8 percent. Yik Yak has a 98 percent millennial user base.

News flash: the appointment of one presider or another doesn'tt change the overall direction this country is headed, one bit.

Really 85% of the Berners support Hilley, do you actually believe that number?
I don't!

That's cool and all, but I don't see how it relates to my post or your assertion that Bernie backing Hillary was some sort of abrupt about-face.
