I think a lot of people misunderstood my post. You included. I never said he should run again. I said he should start a new party.

He could start a party with his backing and promote the next generation of democratic socialist. Sadly, he doesn't and is going to die and leave a massive hole in the momentum and influence he has.

The only one close is AoC and I don't think she is even close to having the momentum to actually disconnect from the Democratic party.

But if Bernie endorsed her for a presidential run until a newly formed party. So many Americans would jump on board that train.
