    Bernie has been independent for essentially his entire career.

    Precisely because he’s been in politics since the 80s and is a brand name in Vermont.

    And he still caucuses with the Dems. He didn’t run for president as an independent. He knows the perils of appearing as a spoiler candidate as well as any Stein or Nader.
