He would never accept being her VP, a lot of voters are Bernie or bust. I don't want to vote Hillary, and it pisses me off that it's basically Trump or Hillary.

Yeah, if Bernie accepts VP to Hillary, he would bleed supporters, because he'd be showing he was a sellout. And I honestly agree with Irrational, it would be massively out of character for him, because he's really not a sellout.

He may be too old to run in 2020, but if Warren decides to, I would love for him to be VP to her.

As you may have guessed from previous posts, I'm pulling strongly for Cory Booker

Don't worry, my friend.  If this be the end, then so shall it be.

          The problem is Hillary would have a tough time getting supporters in the long run. The GOP voters are coming out in packs, to get voters out period you need to pull them by the hair. If Facebook had a voting a system more people would vote, ask a younger then 30 to drive to the pizza hut down the street, most you ask would say can't we just get delivery? We do need a internet voting system badly though.

He's even older than she is.  Besides, the last thing the democrats need to do is take a consistent progressive vote ( except on gun control) out of the senate.

I understand, but Bernie as VP to Hillary will not necessarily bring in the Bernie voters.  It might instead actually drive them away.
